Mach V @ Back to Mine, 20110916 - Contains periods of intentional silence

So I'm back from another summer of UK weekend festivalisation and, from now on, I should be fairly tucked up at home for the foreseeable, until the xmas season kicks in at least. What does this mean to you, dear listener/reader/subscriber? Well it should mean more regular weekly shows from me and maybe, just maybe me sorting out the podcast issues (if anyone does actually manage to listen in to these shows via itunes/feedburner I'd love to hear from you; just send me an email to djmachv at gmail or tweet me at @djmachv because I fear that the podcast side of things is not working properly).

I'm also going to be looking into changing my facebook group - Mach V's Musical Appreciation - into either a page or an updated group and I'd love to hear from you if you have any thoughts and advice on that, too. Oh, for those other musical podcasts/shows I listen to, they are as follows:

The Svelte Selection

Bam Bam Sound

Shady Ladies

So, for this show, I decided to put it in reverse gear and start at the uptempo and take it to the downtempo and I think it was quite a successful selection - I'm sure the live japanese listeners enjoyed a set that sent them off to bed rather than made them get up again. :) Anyway, nuff wibble from me... here's the

Mach V @ Back To Mine, 20110727 & 20110720, Deershed 2011 & New free Echaskech track!

2.jpg

Ok there's lots to tell you about this week. First off please accept my apologies for no update last weekend - I was with Echaskech at Deershed 2011 as part of Just Music's day up there, (along with lable mates Digitonal and Laki Mera) but more on that later. Last Friday morning Echaskech, along with the vocal talents of Napoleon Complex,  released their new track, "Change the Station" as a free download from Soundcloud. My video for it is on the Echaskech youtube page

As well as on my Vimeo page,

both available in glorious 720p. Initially I wanted to visually represent Napoleon's desire to make his point about broadcast news. The first idea was to have Napoleon being the one holding the bill board/placard, gagged. The idea being that the act of protesting would be his message, and even as an individual it could still be done, but sadly Napoleon lives in Naples, Italy (hence the name) so we changed it to just be Dom, representing Echaskech, or the music supporting what Napoleon has to say. Dom holding up the placard with Napoleon on it is a metaphor of Echaskech's music supporting Napoleon's lyrics. Shooting took place over the easter weekend on my trusty Panasonic HDC HS300 (we got Napoleon to film himself and send us the footage) and the editing was done in Final Cut Pro, then round tripped into After Effects to comp Napoleon on to the placard by Dom and then back to mine for a final treatment in FCP. We're all very happy and proud of it.

Deershed must be one of the most child friendly festivals I've even been to. We reckoned that the children out numbered the adults 2 to 1, the average age of the audience must've been about 12 years old. On Saturday night, at 11pm, just as we were ready to go out on the tented town and party, all the entertainment stopped and by 11:20pm the arena was a ghost town... quite an eerie experience for a old festival vet like my self. However as our soundcheck was at 8.30am(!) it was probably for the best.

Though we were playing at 1pm on a blisteringly bright Sunday afternoon, I was relieved to see that Deershed had sourced a properly dark tent for us to perform in, which meant that i hadn't traipsed up with my vj rig in tow for another wasted journey, only to watch the boys play from the sidelines. Much thanks to the lovely people at Deershed and at Just Music for making it a very special day for us all. And then, if that wasn't enough, Just Music announce that one of the Echaskech tracks "The Calm" is to be included on Linn Records "Just Music exclusive" compilations. Yes, that's right: the same Linn records that orginally signed The Blue Nile. How awesome is that?

Anyway, now on to the podcasts, which there are two of, this week. first off is the one I couldn't upload last weekend due to Deershed - BTM20110720 - and secondarily the one from this week, which is BTM20110727. There you go, 3 hours of music for you.  :) And here are the

"And then, all of a sudden... it was gone" (Fusion Anomaly, Eat Static)

Well, indeed. After last week's hair losing technical debacle, this week everything is fine and remarkably dandy. Torq worked better than ever before, a positively pleasurable DJing experience. So all the errors you can here are all mine. ;)

There's a couple of tracks on this podcast from the latest LP from the overly talented Vital Substance, called "Under the Surface" (http://vitalsubstance.bandcamp.com/album/under-the-surface ) and I really recommend that you check not only this release but every thing he's put out. Avaliable on Bandcamp most, if not all his musical output is ready to download for free which is extremely generous of him. One to keep an eye on, for sure.

Oh one thing I should clear up, I got the name of the Rumpistol LP on the broadcast - it's called Mere Rum and it's available on emusic. Here's the rest of the
