Folded...

A big thank-you going out to First Fold Records for their amazing live performance on The Beat Suite yesterday. Incorporating lots and lots of various bits of unusual gear such as old radios, tape players, a Stylophone all glued together with original beats, the fully improvised performance was amazing to listen to.

Massive props also going out to Royal, who not only created the current graphical identity of the label but also played his selection of the First Fold back catalog and laid down some really interesting scratching.

And last but not least - respect to all the audience we had in the studio during the show - Adele, Slobs and Seeds from Secret Wars as well as Boogie Dave and Roscoe from Dubstation

Don't forget you can listen again to the show if you missed it, simply click HERE or the '27th August' link on the right-hand side of this blog.

The Beat Suite goes international

We have prepared a very special program for you this week! Since we will not be in the studio on Wednesday night we have pre-recorded a couple of 'field programmes' - one is Dolhasz's Polish Barbacue Sessions straight from a garden in sunny Poland.
The other is Skeleton's special selection from The Lake District. Additionally, right at the end of the 2 hours, Open Beats's Royal has prepared a short mix for all you tune-thirsty Rhubarbians.

So make sure you tune in this wednesday night / thursday morning - you will definitely not regret it - Loads of fresh tunes, unusual locations and a standardly good atmosphere!
You can also listen back to the show if you can't make it live!

peace
