[2009-12-21] It’s a Festivus Miracle!

Posted by DJ RJ under Music Casts

I actually compiled this cast a couple of days ago so that I wouldn’t have to worry about selecting some Yultide Cheer at the last moment.

Modcast for 2008-10-25

Posted by DJ RJ under DJ RJ accouncements, Music Casts

Yes, a new cast!  No, I still have more Direct Hits sets to load, but crap, I’ve waited three weeks.  I suppose that I owe both listeners an explanation:

I have medical issues. I have been taking care of these. I also have a band; actually, I have several music projects, but this is my “real band” I’m talking about. As a band member, I have band practise. I also have many other projects that I juggle around, including a novel that needs to be wrapped up and I’ve found myself taking on a regular blog project and I am just bad at budgeting my time. Really bad. Heinously bad. Still, with practise, I will get better.

So, here’s a new 45-minute set, and on Wednesday, I will load more from my Direct Hits archives. I promise. It will be awesome.

 

The Tape-beatles – Individual Choice
Tiny Tim – The Coming Home Party
Blue Rondo a’la Turk – Change
Gloria Jones – Finders Keepers
The Monochrome Set – Expresso
Nouvelle Vague – Dance With Me
R. Dean Taylor – Back Street
The Fall – Gotta See Jane
France Gall - Jazz A-Go-Go
QYPTHONE - Go-Go Girl
Les Fleur de Lys – One City Girl
The Rolling Stones – Let’s Spend the Night Together
The Small Faces – What’cha Gonna Do About It
The Libertines – Can’t Stand Me Now
Mae West – Light My Fire

ModCast Archive: 2006-07-24

Posted by DJ RJ under Music Casts

OK, I know I promised something both yesterday and today, but in all seriousness, yesterday and today was filled up with me doing shit for my band — my actual band, the one I sing for. In fact, until my guitarist got here earlier today for practise, I thought it was still Wednesday.

Now, it turns out that I never actually cast this old archive, I just had the set-list jotted down and I came across it by accident. Yes, I suppose that in theory I could just go get my Direct Hits setlists from this summer and just arrange the music on here, but that would involve transcribing hand-written sets, and this shit is just C&P. I will resume my “twice-weekly until it’s all my archives and old sets are posted” schedule next week, when I pick up after the lag from my guitarist getting into the swing of things at uni.

 

The Olympians – Hopeless Endless Ways
The New Hearts – Another Teenage Anthem
The Purple Hearts (60’s, Australian) – Of Hopes & Dreams & Tombstones
The Damned – Morning Bird
Nino Ferrer – Mirza
The Loons – Stumble & Fall
The Ordinary Boys – Boys Will Be Boys
Nine Below Zero – Eleven Plus Eleven
Makin’ Time – Pump It Up
Franz Ferdinand – Get Up and Use Me
Rip Rig & Panic – Eros, What Brings Colour Up the Stem
Les Cappuccino – Green Onions
John’s Children – Just What You Want, Just What You’ll Get
Jacques Brel – Jacky
