NO.1 ASTRONAUT - Resonance

DATE: Saturday 12th February
TIME: 9.30 - 11pm
SHOW: Jonny Mugwump presents The Exotic Pylon
STATION: Resonance 104.5FM

From the Exotic Pylon blog...

The official full debut of NO.1 ASTRONAUT's "Instant Digest" project. 5 decades of sonic pop culture collapsed into 25 minutes of abstract plunderphonic madness - a hyper-fragmented gorgeously warped love-letter to pop music.

DISORDER AT THE PYLON

The usual mix of fun, nerves and alcohol were had at Resonance FM HQ last weekend. Johnny Mugwump's EXOTIC PYLON combined forces with DISORDER AT THE BORDER.

With a host of performances, improvisations and experimentation, they created DISORDER AT THE BORDER, topped off with a stint on the decks from yours truly.

Expect some extremely wobbly mixing moments before it calms down and goes all junglist on yo ass.

WEIRD TALES FOR WINTER

Resonance FM will be broadcasting Jonny Mugwump's WEIRD TALES FOR WINTER series, every night this week at midnight. Schedule details on the EXOTIC PYLON link below.

Author and contributor MATTHEW DE ABAITUA says "The second Weird Tale for Winter is my own The Dinner Party Wars, a story I rewrote and performed after the death of JG Ballard, as my own modest tribute to the great prophet of futuristic psychopathy. The West Norwood Cassette Library have done a fantastic job in hewing, smoothing and varnishing my raw recording, adding a rumbling bassline and various sonic constructs that any writer would be pleased to find himself within."

Tune in this week on RESONANCE FM

Another chaotic-but-fun Pylon session. As usual, thanks to JONNY MUGWUMP for the opportunity to air some new and old Cassette Library dubplates.

Shame I opted to do a live mix and completely fluffed it then. Been a long time since I turned in such a sloppy effort at beat mixing - turns out that Lemsip, cider and dodgy wiring isn't such a winning combination after all

Excuses, excuses...

DATA 70 - Exotic Pylon, Resonance FM

For those of you that missed it, DATA 70 were the guest DJs on Jonny Mugwump's Saturday night radio show, EXOTIC PYLON, RESONANCE 104.4FM.

Hat's off to Jonny for the invite, support and for hosting a fabulous house party cum radio show in a shoebox. Due to our technical incompetence, nerves and generally not knowing what was going on one minute to the next, we avoided speaking but a belated thanks to everyone who tuned in.

You can listen / download the show from Jonny's archive page here

Thanks again, Jonny - you're a gent!

JONNY MUGWUMP

JONNY MUGWUMP has been showing some support for DATA 70 by featuring tracks from the Space Loops series on his Saturday night radio show, EXOTIC PYLON on RESONANCE 104.4FM. We'll be doing an interview and playing some tunes on his April 25th show. Nice one, Jonny!
