I recently did a radio show for Tropical Beats, chatting about South America as normal, and this is one of the results of that, a podcast for Kickstart Your Dreams which you can listen to on Soundcloud.
Huge thanks to Karl Hildebrandt and Jonathan Baillie Strong for making this happen.
It seems sometimes people read things. This I know because I just got sent an email from a PR company promoting the new record by Tracy Shedd (who I’ve never heard of by the way), a singer who has just covered Sonic Youth’s “Teenage Riot” with the help of Howe Gelb. They contacted me because I published an email Howe sent me a couple of months ago. So, as the track is pretty damn grand and I’m awash with excitement that my blog has been filed in the ‘G’ section of someone’s cabinet I figured I would post the track.
