Fri, 30 October 2009  Interpretations are great, especially when they come from such recent (and some classic) heavy hitters out the music world. This is, the 2nd compilation of cover songs I have done with the BNB. The first one, was back in 2007 when I was in Seattle, so this set is LONG overdue. I was really excited to see Goldfrapp cover the State of Grace song, "It's Not Over Yet". This song was a massive progressive trance hit exposed by Paul Okenfold in his stadium sessions back in the late 90's. This song, reinterpreted in the soft coolness of Goldfrapp's vocals hightens this song's potential 20 fold. And the strangest thing, is that this is a cover of a cover as the Klaxons recently did this one. Another fine gem is The Rest, doing one of my other favorite songs (as you might know, as I've played/annoyed you every damn remix on this broadcast of this one) of Robyn/Kleerup's "With Every Heart Beat". This luscious electro hit is reimagined into a blurry shoegazer track. Incredible! And lastly, the beginning and end tracks for this set. The first is a heartbreakingly beautiful rendition of Bjork's "Joga" by PS22 elementary school 5th graders out in Stanton Island, NY. The last is Roisin Murphy, Amanda Ghost, Cock'n'Bull Kid, and Sinead O'Connor singing a cover of Chaka Khan's "I'm Every Woman" (This too was also covered by Whitney Houston back in the day). This song was created for the UK Based "Action Aid", an org helping those out in poverty. Enjoy!

Fri, 23 October 2009  Hello BNB'ers, and welcome back this week. The Autumn is kicking in some amazing weather on the Pacific coast this year, which is perfect for kicking back and listening to ambient and mellow downtempo. Last week I mentioned that I was going to be dj'ing a versus set with Nina Grey, however it is postponed for later down the line. Instead, I'm bringing you back my absolute FAVORITE type of music to spin and listen to, which is ambient. This set has delicious glitch, slumbering electronic mellow ambient, shoegazer, and a bit of heroin house. This is also a dedication to my friend John out in the bay area, whose incredible music knowledge in the fields of ambient helped inspire this great set. I will say hands down, that this is one of my all time favorite sets I have dj'ed in the history of the BNB. Sleepyhead radio 9 also includes a collaboration with Liz Fraser of the Cocteau Twins singing on FSOL's Life Forms, and a great cover of BoC by Bibio. Enjoy!

Thu, 1 October 2009  ETC, the best random session filled with hot flotsam and jetsam sound, is back up on the BNB this week! This set is filled with random dance, glitch, electro, and pop for your hungry ears (can ears really be hungry? maybe not, but if your ears ate sound, they'd be eating this set up). Check it out!
