Norman Jay has a new compilation out to mark 30 years of his Good Times soundsystem.

Here’s a great little snippet on the history of the soundsystem from Terry Walshe’s 2002 doc ‘Good Times’. Check out the comp at the usual places, it’s called “NORMAN JAY MBE PRESENTS GOOD TIMES: 30th Anniversary Edition”

On countdown now to REWIRE on Saturday, so here’s another little gem to whet the appetites. New on Hot Flush.

Deadboy’s back!

Fresh future acid boogie from Eglo artist Arp101.

Just ticking over. Nice little piece from Morgan Zarate’s Hookid EP.

Looking back at much talked about Nicolas Jaar’s first EP, Time for us, as he drops his first full length LP, Space Is Only Noise

These are from a double EP drop by Shackleton on Honest Jon’s

The top track is Fireworks from the EP of the same name, with remixes by Mordant Music and T++.

This second one is a King Midas Sound remix of Deadman, first seen on his recent Fabric mix.

This track by William Onyeabor off Strut’s recent Nigeria 70 compilation is my anthem right now.

The artist formerly known as Maetrik comes out the gates firing in 2011.

REWIRE, the quarterly odd event I put on together with Mick Cross, sees it’s second session this Saturday (13th Nov) from 9pm-3 at The Old Crown Public House, WC1A 1BH.

To get things warmed up a bit during this cold and wet November week, here’s a new promo mix for your listening pleasure…
