A post-punk electronic show. The Prats recorded in Edinburgh 1978, but have the post-punk sound, as do 39 Clocks, that tracks like Disintegrators (from ‘Cold Waves of Color 2’) blend into their electronics, as do Manicured Noise. John Cale never needed to live in any scene, and the 1984 track here shows that. Binder Quintet show they can fit in this show playing jazz. Like artists on the Ze label (he is not) Henri Pierre Noel blended the influences for a dance club.

A rock show that is not afraid to cross into other waters, such as Gay Marvine’s re-edit of Iggy Pop’s Nightclubbing, The B0-Key’s cover of Percy Sledge ‘Dark End of the Street’ or Annabel Lamb’s cover of The Doors ‘Riders On The Storm’. Many fine track here!

Electronic show with a few outliers – show opener Mick Ronson makes sense when you consider it precedes Angela Bowie. Does the fact that she is covering The Ramones make sense? You tell me. An Iggy Pop track from the LP he did with Josh Homme, and Johnny Thunders & Patti Palladin. Those are your rock tracks. The rest of this show is filled with well chosen obscurities and re-edits that should well please you.

Rock show that starts with krautrock (Harmonia) and jazz (Baird Hersey with Dave Leibman) and soul-jazz (Stanton Davis’ Ghetto Mysticism) before landing squarely in rock, with a few detours to other tracks from the above, plus a track from Trinidad & Tobago with Shadow. The show closes with Australian band Hitmen sounding a lot like The Dictators.

Rock show that like Austin TX, ‘keeps it weird’ – the show starts with Claudia Bonarelli’s glitch, then proto-witch house from Psychic Reality before breaking into chaos with M’Lumbo. Then off to France for Jean-pierre Massiera disco-not-disco. At that point the rock starts, though not without other detours, like the track by Manchester’s Andi Hanley. NYC no wave artist Mark Cunningham (Mars) in his Spain Raeo guise appears next. The Revenge re-edits an Ian Dury, making it non-recognizable except for moments. Krakow’s Marcin Swietlicki does a track. I want to make sure you hear the Boots For Dancing track – I love that band!
