    🎧 More Episodes: https://bit.ly/3fnoGAt 💿 Label: https://bit.ly/3viAXvz Shock World Service 099: Emil's Home(Princess P) 18/3/2021 Bern, Switzerland 1. Tarotplane – Shatner's Bassoon Shatner's Bassoon is the first track on the just released Horizontology album by Tarotplane. You fly through a soft universe, eager to hear what comes next. The cover tempts you to dive in. 2. Helado Negro – Pais Nublado When i saw Helado Negro live i was blown away. His appearance combined with his bilingual poetry about personal and political issues immediately captivated me. His voice feels as warm as the Florida sun playfully flooding the room. The big sticker on my fridge reminds me every time 'this is how you smile'. 3. Pierre Barouh – Le Pollen (only intro) A conversation in a bar, cafe or bistro. Glasses clinking, a phone is ringing, probably people are smoking at the tables, pretty accents. 4. Silver Leaf – Hey! Sweet voice calls hey! and laughs. Here it comes. But it doesn't matter if nothing else comes. Let's go. 5. Serge Gainsbourg – Strip-Tease Instrumental I left out Juliette Gréco's voice, I hope you don't mind. So the melody could also come from a carnival, a merry-go-round, Paris in the 60s. 6. Il Quadro Di Troisi – Non Ricordi What could be better than two artists you love making an album together? I follow both Eva Geist & Donato Dozzy musically. This project is totally successful, a beautiful pop album. 7. Jean-Pierre Decerf – Surrounding Seas Jean Pierre Decerf recorded the Tracks for Space Oddities in the mid 70s. Surrounding Seas sounds just as the title promises. A dreamy flight around the seas. 8. Ssiege – Regina What an album! Luckily it's out on vinyl now, I don't buy tapes anymore. Regina is so good, the sounds, the mood, a perfect track. Ssiege is definitely one of my favourite artists at the moment. 9. Roy & The Devil's Motorcycle – We Don't Know The Roy's are a swiss rock band, consisting of 3 brothers with guitars and a drummer. One of them usually stands with his back to the audience. I have heard them live many times. The song 'We don't know' is the B2 on a 7" with a slightly larger hole than necessary. I love this song it sounds so drunk. The larger hole makes it wobble, which sounds even more drunk. 10. Julianna Barwick – Flowers Barwick's meditative blend of electronica, ambient and pop has an effective healing effect. 'Healing is a Miracle' came out last summer. The basslines, the echoing pads, together with her voice are amazing. The repetitive nature of this song is like a huge thunderstorm approaching or a storm passing by. The album feels so real, accompanied by a magnificent artwork. 11. Squid – Broadcaster “Lyrically the track was inspired by the visual artist Naim June Paik & his TV Garden installation,” the band’s drummer/vocalist Ollie Judge said “I thought it blurred the lines between a dystopian and utopian vision. I imagined what it must be like living synonymously amongst nature & technology in the most literal way I could imagine, with TVs towering over me amongst forests.” Let's take this psychedelic voyage. 12. Black Marble – Johnny And Mary A song born in 1980 and still so fresh 40 years later. A successful homage, it moves you to dance (also good for driving, I tried it). 13. Finis Africae – El Abrazo De La Selva This piece speaks a beautiful peace between modern electric instruments and traditional acoustic instruments from many cultures. Fortunately, you can travel with music. 14. Neo Museum – Area I discovered the song on a compilation of 'Light in the Attic'. It's sung in such a wonderfully weird way. 15. Burnto Bertolucci – Bake Me Dome Tonight This track is a remake of Schneider TM 'The Light 3000', in turn based on The Smiths classic. 16. The Schmutz Sisters – La Folle Finally, one of the best songs i know. The Schmutz Sisters was a Swiss project founded for a performance. Recently reissued on Optimo's So Low label. Play it loud & give the bolero.

  • 097: An Effigy Hologram (David Kitt)
    Dec 1 2020
    Shock World Service 097: An Effigy Hologram(David Kitt) 1/12/2020 Dublin, Ireland 1. Sansbut - Clothes On The Line, Carnsore Point 2. Mona Lo - Parting Song 3. Cornaleena - The Hare 4. Sansbut - Cantus In Memoriam 5. David Kitt - Wishing Well 6. Mona Lo - Heavy 7. Sansbut - Rêve Élève 8. Spillcrane - Too Long(Everything In Dub) 9. Cornaleena - Dead Esso 10.

Sansbut - Tir Ami Sansbut Vol 1 is out now on Awayday https://sansbut.bandcamp.com Jon has been asking for something for something for Shock World Service for quite a while now and it's a great honour to finally deliver something for the legendary series. Congratulations to Jon for leaving behind such a rich musical archive. My mix features all new unreleased work and mainly features music incoming on my new label Awayday, collaborations with Kevin Barry as Cornaleena, Margie Jean Lewis as Mona Lo, Catherine Sikora as Sansbut and with Stano as Spillcrane. Also featured are three new David Kitt songs from a record due for release on All City in May 2021 with Katie Kim on vocals. It represents a good overview of a lot of what I've been making in the last while and was put together in Paris during an artist residency at Centre Culturel Irlandais. To me it captures the atmosphere of those initial months of coming to terms with this unexpected version of reality we all found ourselves in. – David Kitt Artwork by Mel Keane

  • 096: I Didn't Want The Night To End (Cian Ó Cíobháin)
    Oct 19 2020
    Shock World Service 096: I Didn't Want The Night To End (Cian Ó Cíobháin) 19/10/2020 Galway, Ireland 1. Phil Lynott - One Wish (Demo with Huey Lewis) Phil Lynott’s friendship with Huey Lewis dated back to the mid-70s and this extraordinary demo, one of the last songs Lynott wrote, was never officially released. 2. John Cale - Dying On The Vine The eternally creative John Cale recorded this around the same time that Lynott collaborated with Lewis on the previous track. 3. OMD - Souvenir Possibly the most beautiful song in the entire OMD catalogue features the band’s keyboard player Paul Humphreys on vocals. 4. Karen Marks - Cold Café Wistful new wave track from Melbourne from ’81. 5. Clannad - Theme From Harry’s Game Regularly played on the radio in the 80s, I had almost forgotten about it until I happened upon a Twitter thread admiring it no end. 6. Lani Hall - Never Say Never Again From an unofficial Bond movie from ’83, I’ve always had a soft spot for the title track, sung by Lani Hall, who was married to Herb Alpert and briefly fronted Sérgio Mendes & Brasil ’66. 7. Sparks - I Want To Hold Your Hand Stunning cover from 1976 of The Beatles standard which was introduced to me by Barry Murphy of The Last Sound. 8. Chris Clark - How About You Chris Clark is one of a very small number of white performers who recorded on Motown during the 60s. 9. Love - My Little Red Book I first heard this when composer Burt Bacharach performed it at Galway Arts Festival in 2019. Next morning, I was on the hunt and discovered a number of covers, including this one from 1965 from the mighty Love. 10. BEAK> - Yatton From one of Geoff Barrow’s post-Portishead Bristol bands. 11. De Ambassade - Geen Genade Like the previous track, this Dutch song has the spirit of 1980s new wave all over it, though it came out in 2016. 12. Turquoise Days - Grey Skies Astonishing synth-pop classic from ‘84 from a duo based in Jersey on the Channel Islands, who released a number of cassettes in the 80s. 13. Ariel Pink - Stray Here With You Only a genius like Ariel Pink would have an unreleased pop gem like this in his locker. It surfaced last year on his ‘Oddities Sodomies Vol 2’ compilation of previously unreleased tracks. 14. Toasted Heretic - Another Day, Another Riot I’ve been after a good quality version of this track for ages - one of Toasted Heretic’s greatest moments, which will forever remind me of moving to Galway. I was thrilled when Neil Farrell, who used to record with the band (and also records as The Melancholy Thug), gifted me with a high quality version a few months ago. Indeed, I borrowed from the lyrics to give this podcast its title. 15. Jan St. Werner - VS Cancelled Jan St. Werner of Mouse On Mars collaborated with The Fall’s Mark E Smith as Von Südenfed. This track features Smith reading an email from Domino detailing why the band had been dropped by the label. 16. The Fall - Paint Work The Fall’s 8th studio LP ‘This Nation’s Saving Grace’ is a masterpiece and this ramshackle track is one of its defining moments. 17. Billy Fury - I’m Lost Without You This track almost sounds like a blueprint for the music of early Tindersticks. Indeed, Morrissey was also a huge fan of this 60s Scouse singer. 18. The Kinks - I Go To Sleep (Demo) We kicked off with a demo and so we’ll part with one. Written by Ray Davies, it was never formally recorded by The Kinks, but has been covered many times since. https://cianociobhain.com/ https://www.rte.ie/rnag/

  • 095: Shahee Al Ni3na3 [Mint Tea](Moving Still)
    Jun 12 2020
    Shock World Service 095: Shahee Al Ni3na3 [Mint Tea](Moving Still) 12/6/2020 Dublin, Ireland There is nothing nicer than getting up in the morning and making myself a cup of Arabic mint tea - this is a tradition I was exposed to growing up in Saudi. The songs I picked for this mix are songs that would go well with a nice cup (finjan) of mint tea (shahee ni3na3). I wanted to bring you through my cassette collection but also show you some songs that I hope to find on cassette. Every single song in this mix has a distinct memory that I truly love, and I hope they become special to you too. I highly recommend making a pot of mint tea, sitting on the floor, and mindfully listening to this mix.- Jamal Sul/ Moving Still 1. Ferqat Al Dana - Labod Nerjaa This is a band from Kuwait and the album was recorded in 1993. This song is a classic! It was pretty unusual to hear this type of Jazz from a Middle Eastern band. This is one of my favourites. 2. Bouchenak - Salam Alikoum This is a lovely cassette from Morocco that was released in 1992. This one has a lovely bassline and a melodic lead line that grabs you throughout. 3. Zeinab - Ya Hawly Zeinab released only two albums, and this song was released in 1985 on Delta Sounds. It is a lovely slow Egyptian Disco banger. 4. Faris - Ya Tayer Faris is an Egyptian singer and actor. This track was released as part of an Egyptian compilation called “Njoom Al Sharq”. 5. Simone - Zey Ma Matideny Simone is known for her Arabic covers of very popular pop songs. This cover of Janet Jackson’s “What Have You Done For Me Lately” is superb! This is the last track on her 1992 album “Merci”. 6. Mona Abdel Ghany - Ashab The name “Ashab” translates to “friends” in Arabic. Mona’s singing in this is one of a kind, and the hook melody is very soothing. 7. Americana Show - Taht Al Dila Americana Show were an Egyptian artistic trio founded by Hamid El Shaeri & Tareq Nur in the late 1980s. Members were Hisham Abbas, Aliya Saleh and Ahmed Al Gibaly. Taht Al Dila, which means under the shade. 8. Ali Bahar- Tesadeq Aad Ali Bahar is a Bahrani singer that was nicknamed “the Bob Marley of the Gulf”. This was released on great label called Al-Nazaer. 9. Cheb Arab - Yama Eouny This song is timeless, and those gated reverb snares and claps are key in this one. I would highly recommend listening to the entire album “Lo Kan” released in 1991. 10. Hany Shnoda Farkat Maserrian - Lama Kan El Bahr Azraa This song is very dear to me. You can literally float away listening to it. 11. Hamid El Shaeri - Oudah His mixed roots of being both Libyan and Egyptian gave his music a complete fresh taste during the boom of the cassettes industry in the 80s. The entire song is an acoustic guitar breeze and very different from his other tracks. 12. Azza Kamal - Maadna Bukra Azza Kamal only released one album, was an actress for a few years, and disappeared from the entertainment industry in the 90s. The edit is on the way!! 13. Laila Ghofran - Muhtagah Atghayar This is another cassette that was just collecting dust and I had no idea what was on it. This is an 80s banger and really love her singing on this particular song. 14. Sahar & Hamid El Shaeri - Rajer This is a song I recently discovered and would love to have this on cassette. I was really blown away by Sahar’s singing and the main lead guitar. I highly recommend listening to this one with mint tea. 15. Etteb - Ghourabah Etteb is my favourite female Saudi musician. As far as I know, she is the first female singer to emerge from Saudi. She moved to Egypt to continue her singing career and she was an advocate for women in music, and a member of the Union of Arab Artists and the Musicians Syndicate in Egypt. 16. Fatima - Douz Douz This one was released in 1984 on Atoll in France. The chorus on this track is absolutely amazing, and the Arabic percussion mixed in with Disco elements really give this song its signature.

  • 094: Will You Ever Feel Okay (Gadget & The Cloud)
    May 18 2020
    Shock World Service 094: Will You Ever Feel Okay (Gadget & The Cloud) 18/4/2020 Dublin, Ireland 1. The Appleseed Cast - The Last In Line Deep Elm Records’ finest at their most expansive and lush. 2. The Antlers - Kettering Taken from their 2006 masterpiece Hospice. Few songs hit me as hard as this. 3. Ricky Eat Acid - Three Love Songs Twinkling sounds that feel like being reborn. 4. A monologue from Synecdoche, New York 5. Teen Suicide - Haunt Me (x3) Bedroom pop with the catchiest damn melody. 6.Teen Daze - Longing It captures exactly what it says on the tin. 7. Lana Del Rey - Video Games (Balam Acab Remix) Sad girl springtime but make it experimental 8. Mount Eerie - Emptiness Pt 2 Phil Elverum’s unapologetically emotionally upfront lyrics are unlike anyone else. A Crow Looked At Me is essential listening. 9. Eluvium - Chime A haunting cut from Explosions in the Sky collaborator Matthew Cooper. 10. Lights & Motion - Only You Another Deep Elm Records deep cut. 11. Boards Of Canada - Amo Bishop Roden The OGs of emotional bleepcore. 12. Gadget & The Cloud - Quiescence My own track taken from the wonderful Bandcloud compilation Missives. 13.

  • 093: An Ode To Selling Out (DC FSLMan)
    May 5 2020
    More episodes: https://bit.ly/3fsuFSr Shock World Service 093: An Ode To Selling Out (DC FSLMan) 5/4/2020 Dublin, Ireland 1. Selling Out Intro 2. Genesis P-Orridge & Cotton Ferox - Interlude 1: Slipping Away [2004] Technically under the name Thee Majesty along with Cotton Ferox, Interlude is a moody soundtrack with Genesis' creepy vocals throughout. Its from the 2004 album Wordship. 3. The Danse Society - There Is No Shame In Death [1981] Based out of Barnsley in the UK, The Danse Society(later to be known with little or to no success as Johnny In The Clouds) were a post-punk/goth band with synthy undertones. Their first single "There Is No Shame In Death" in particular is an excellent example of the early 80's British post-punk wave! 4. Bourbonese Qualk - Freefall [1983] Experimental & industrial sounds from the Southport, UK group's 1983 album Laughing Afternoon, which got reissued on Mannequin last year. Gives your brain a few minutes to adjust before the next few tracks. 6. Robert Turman - Way Down [1987] After being in NON with noise artist Boyd Rice in the late 1970's. San Diego's Robert Turman went on to make several solo albums dating up to very recently. Way Down is the 2nd of these & is a mixture of a post-punk & distortion loop. 7. To Live & Shave In L.A. - Bad Couple [2019/1992] Released last year on American noise/punk label Hanson, run by Aaron Dilloway. Bad Couple is one of four 1992 recordings by To Live & Shave In L.A. featured on the split with Tom Smith, Spatters Of A Royal Sperm. Think noisy guitar, distorted vocals & tape noises. 8. Black Phlegm - Movement Five [1989] Definitely the first track ever in the history of this mix series to include a power drill. Late 80's experimental noise. Calling it DIY would be an understatement. 9. Selling Out 10. Rexy - (Don't) Turn Me Away [1980] Originally a collaboration by Vic Martin who went on to play keyboard for The Eurythmics & Chris Burne from The Rivvits. Rexy a project named after the talking styled front singer. The band had a couple of singles & 1 album to very little success, but this track over the years has become somewhat of a cult classic having been re-issued a few times over the years. 10. Essendon Airport - B52 [2011/1981] Essendon Airport is an Australian post-punk/experimental band formed in 1978. Their only album Palimpsest came out in 1981. The CD re-release of it in 2011 included an extra CD of what I'm assuming were album off-cuts that includes B52. A loopy post-punk & tapey instrumental with some haunty machine sounds thrown in the background for good measure. 11. The Fall - Who Makes The Nazis? [1985] Originally from Hip Priest And Kamerads in 1985, I have no idea when this recording of this track actually is cause its from that big Peel sessions boxset. The track kinda feels like its just a jam and they are letting Mark E.Smith say whatever alongside some jaunty guitar and drums. 12. Sonic Youth - Créme Brûlèe [1992] I spent more time writing all this than I did recording the mix. Créme Brûlèe is of course the outro track of the now very somewhat famous 1992 Sonic Youth album Dirty. The track features some minimal guitar and distortion with Kim Gordon's intoxicated sounding vocals overlapped beautifully. 13. Broadcast - Tears In The Typing PooL [2005] Such a great album. Tears In The Typing Pool is a strumming guitar to some relaxing synths and beautiful vocals. It features on the band's 2005 album Tender Buttons which came out on Warp Records and has become a cult classic over the years. The band came to an end in 2011 when front singer Trish Keenan passed away. 14. Selling Out Conclusion
