The Showdown, 14.5.12
Hard to say really, but it felt like a particularly eclectic mix today, including a feature of They Might Be Giants’ 1988 album ‘Lincoln’ alongside Aaron Goldberg, Aphex Twin and Don Walker. We also played the intergalactic enigma that is Darth Vegas to celebrate the fact that they are launching their album ‘Brainwashing For Dirty Minds’ at the Factory Theatre this Friday.
In the second hour Tim Clarkson joined us, to discuss his new album ‘Evolution Of Beauty’, also launching on Friday, at the Sound Lounge.
