Thrifty Vinyl vs. Exotic Pylon

Following on Ekolad‘s noisy broadside with musical compadre Bass Clef a couple weeks ago, there’s a Prince Asbo curated session on Exotic Pylon scheduled for Friday 4th November from 2 to 4pm. This exclusive mix features many songs actually mentioned in Thrifty Vinyl posts! EP’s Jonny Mugwump is a busy guy so you will want to keep up to date at Exotic Pylon to make sure the thing comes off.

If you have other obligations between 2 and 4, you can download the broadcast shortly after it’s, uh, broadcast right he-ah.

Exotic Pylon v. Thrifty Vinyl – Rescheduled for 7th September at 10pm

Apologies beyond reckoning for jerking loyal readers around like so many yo-yos. Mr Mugwump assures me that, this time for real, the semi-regular clash between our two media outlets will occur NEXT week. Please tune in.

Thrifty Mix On Exotic Pylon

This is a quick note to let all you Thrifty fans out there know that we have a special guest mix on the Exotic Pylon radio show tomorrow night (Wednesday 23rd March at 10pm GMT). Featuring a selection of tunes from the many records we’ve featured here over the past couple of years, this is a shorter version of what would’ve been ‘Thrifty Bits Vol.2′, if we’d ever actually recorded it. Hopefully we will be providing a regular monthly 20-30 minute mix for the show.

More details here.

On The Radio

Just a quick note to let regular readers know that two of this blog’s contributors will be playing a live ‘double-bill’ on independent radio station Resonance FM this Saturday 11th September ( Exotic Pylon show, 9.30-11pm GMT).

We both make experimental improvised electronic music, myself as Ekoplekz and Farmer Glitch is one half of Hacker Farm.

It should be an interesting evening, so please tune-in if you can. The station broadcasts on 104.4 FM in the Greater London area and streams live on the internet too.
