Mambodub

 On this month's show...

A pilgrimage, from mambo to dub, via shit, whiskey, jazz, more shit, prayer, acceptance, piety and alien intervention. As usual, download the whole thing as an mp3 by clicking this link:

or stream on Mixcloud using the player below.

Also this month, I appeared as a guest on Giorgio Sadotti's excellent show for Soho Radio, playing a game of musical exquisite corpse.

We alternated in choice of tune, responding to each other, then Giorgio mixed it down to the 1 hour format. Giorgio does regular shows on Soho radio. I suggest you get on his mailing list.
