Show 15: The Cover Up

5 Hours of kicking back, playing awesome music, eating prawn crackers and talking shit!

instead we wisely opted for "The Cover Up".

Yes lines were crossed this week, swords were raised and bows drawn as we set the stonerdoom goliaths against the psych-krautrock fraternity in a ballot to end all ballots, you thought this years election was close but that was nothing compared to..... "Vote for which epic 70min track you want to hear as your pilots piss off early to go see dead meadow, 2010".
I'm shure your pants are thundering at the excitement there will be over the next two weeks as we keep taking votes up until the half hour mark of our Thursday the 14th October show to decide if we will crank the epic Dopesmoker by Sleep or the adventurous Dampfwalze by Sudstern 44.

To help you mellow on the prospect ahead we decided to give you a thrilling four and a bit hours of tributes/covers of great tunes through the ages mixed in with a farewell to Los Natas set of covers from the argentine masters and some of our regular segments of cooking expertise (this time spicy grilled meatballs filled with ham fetta and olives). And the House of a thousand 80's VHS film review of the great Hunter S. Thompson presented in fine form by birthday boy Bill Murray in "where the buffalo roam".
This weekend week is Doomsday at the northcote social club, get tickeets now or get along early to what should be a great day of destructive riffs to accompany the destruction of livers in the room, hopefully see you all there!

And don't forget to vote in the greatest display of interactive radio since call back radio with alan jones and being able to call him an ignorant old rascist fuck

Show 14: Huevos Verde y Jamón Bitches

Second last week of the month so almost time to end our Los Natas adventures but will be fun to see them out next week with a bit of a tribute night of various tunes they have attempted to re-work over the years, and we’ll follow this with all other tracks for the night being awesome re-works in some way or another. But played some cool new tunes from Titan and the brilliant US Christmas who I hope to continue cranking in the coming weeks, perhaps a requested track by fan no.9 topherelli from over in canadatown.

no House of a thousand 80’s this week with a couple of late night attempts to watch some tragic films from the decade of dreadful movie decadence became full of frustration and retardation and caused the giving up on watching what somehow passed as viewable back in the day.

Cooking cooking cooking, what did we cook, I cant even remember, prob wasn’t too special then I guess, ah no of course. Shit cant believe I forgot, it was the magnificent “green eggs and Ham with some hash browns for good measure!” pretty damn tasty. who’d have thought of whacking some leftover green coconut thai curry in with ya morning fry up, ah actually no, im pretty sure everyones thought of that, but sticking to the mantra of the magnificent Dr. Suess style? now that’s special.

A couple of tributes to the full moon were there as well as celebration for new life with Incredible Hog’s Tadpole for little Ed. And how cool is JPT scare band by the way! Gotta say this album of old recordings is way better than the newer stuff, just something about recordings from the era carrying more than they do today, or it could just be the fact they got old and off the good stuff but I guess we’ll never know. More tributes followed with keeping the proud Holman tradition going with another version of Hey Joe as he wasn’t there to start his show off and we snuck in a bit of brant for some bizarre reason

Tune in again this week for some more great tunes in and great stories from what will be a mega week ahead

Show 13: As Old Jack Burton Used To Say...

Wow pretty happy with the show this week, lots of positive grooves in the studio and i aint talking bout the vinyl. But hope we managed to push that positive vibe out over the airwaves and get everyone on the same page of some party rock'n'roll funky rythem and soul flavours on this mantric moist thursday night in the hills.

so what happenned this week besides an awesome playlist and some crazy mic work... we managed to play quite a few new tunes as always, this week a part of the goods were a surprise reprise by our boys from the urge which is nice to hear! Also an insight into the european plight of our Gypsy friends in need, so we sent out some healing romanian tunes from the new awesome of the egocentrics and a classic jingle thrown in for good measure.

Other highlights were "satans prawn cockcoqtion dairy free bad arse cream sauce" the sauce for the vegan who eats anchovies, and a mouthfull it was, which went down a treat with some browns of hash at the post show wrap up party in tristans backyard! Raul jr was a fan so eat that shit!

How awesome of a movie is big trouble in little china!!! Lo Pan gives it two big thumbs up with massive curly nails on top! and Jack Burton has officially gained status as the greatest action hero from Timbuktu to Portland Maine. Or Portland Oregon, for that matter. Yeah, damn right!

We finished it off with a double Natas whammy from the toba trance albums uno and dos. what more can i say other than the month is only halfway to gone for our journey through the extraordinary musical adventures of the argentine wooly mammoth hunters that are Los Natas, so sit back and enjoy.

Looking forward to next week, hope to have you all again then, cheers coz and tristan

Show 12: But I Digress

Yeah how bout that, probably the most scatterred shambles of a show since our humble beginings a few months back, anyway bare with us, i'm pretty sure we can only get better.

At least the music will always save our shitness, no matter how bad we get the tunes are always gonna bring back the cred, and this weeks tunes were no exception. It seems we got some evel gazebow musos overseas keen on our show, maybe the dunes minions of supporters could lobby them to come and play here this summer, now that would be pretty fuckin rad.

And it was good to play some funky bluesy stuff with black merda who were a super fine group for their time, and i reckon we would have to be holding the mantle as the first show on 3mdr to manage 12 episodes before playing some hendrix. not that theres anything wrong with cranking the maestro of manic melodies, but for a station set solidly in its blues worship we held out for a fair while. And now that cherries gone i got me a hankering for some 1983 next week, but we'll see...


Anyway like i said things got scatterred and messy, i reckon it was to do with those weeds i found in the garden that decided to pass for mint and mixed into the choclate for the ring of fire aged strawberries.

so moving on, we gave a massive helping of the bitchwax to aidainedelic of space and lethal leeroy from the patch, hope your chickens were digging it bro! And rounding out the show with some of ours and yours favourite Natas recordings.

So anyway, sweet as tits im still at work getting paid to write this! which is almost like a paid radio gig, yeah suck on that trisbang, but its 5 now so im going.... what you people want me to work overtime for this piece of shit blog, fuck that man. get yourselfs a beer its friday, soooo playlist for the drive home hmmmm, the winner is dead moon , hasta la huego dude patrol.
