We finish our festive podcast series with the third and last part of the Season’s Beatings mix series. Originally released in 2006 this is the perfect way to round off a day spent eating, drinking and being merry (or oppressed by rarely seen family members).

If you’re on Facebook, make sure to check the related event page where you can show some love to the guys for their very kind presents and hard work. And if you actually like what you hear and would like to own a little piece of festive hip hop and musical history than you can still buy each volume on CD at very ridiculous prices, right here.

Massive thanks to J Squared, Dave H and Hudson for letting us air these, just as they and the Lord intented them to be heard.

Hopefully everything goes fine and this automated, time-stamped post goes out on christmas morning like it’s supposed to. I won’t be able to check until a few days later so let’s hope it does. Merry christmas and happy holidays to one and all. See you all in 2009!

Peace

We continue our Yuletide offerings courtesy of the Off The Hook DJs J Squared and Hudson. Season’s Beatings ‘The Second Coming’ was originally released in 2005 and offers more of the same alternative festive cheer as the original, which is exactly what the doctor ordered at this time of the year.

If you’re on Facebook, make sure to check the related event page where you can show some love to the guys for their very kind presents and hard work. And if you actually like what you hear and would like to own a little piece of festive hip hop and musical history than you can still buy each volume on CD at very ridiculous prices, right here.

Massive thanks to J Squared, Dave H and Hudson for letting us air these. The last volume will be going out tomorrow on christmas day. All of these are being aired with no indent or additional anything, just as their creators and the Lord intented them to be heard.

See you all in 2009!

Season’s Beatings ‘A Yuletide Odyssey’ – podcast special

Back in 2003, Mr Trick aired the excellent ‘Seasons’s Beatings’ mix as a Turntable Radio christmas treat. Put together by J Squared, Dave H and Hudson, the mix rightly received a lot of praise, and has become a bit of a classic since, for weaving together over an hour of the finest festive music from far and wide, providing the ultimate alternative soundtrack to the festive holidays.

In 2005 and 2006, the guys continued their work to spread the alternate festive spirit and released volumes 2 and 3, proving that there is a lot more ‘unusual’ xmas and festive music out there than you ever thought possible.

And so five years on, we’re very happy to say that the men behind Season’s Beatings have decided to make all three volumes available to download for one and all. Ironically, I was speaking to them at exactly the same time to do another special on the show for this year’s holiday season, so the timing couldn’t have been better to bring you this glorious series of festive mixes for you to enjoy before, during and after the christmas festivities.

If you’re on Facebook, make sure to check the related event page where you can show some love to the guys for their very kind presents and hard work. And if you actually like what you hear and would like to own a little piece of festive hip hop and musical history than you can still buy each volume on CD at very ridiculous prices, right here.

Massive thanks to J Squared, Dave H and Hudson for letting us air these. The 3 volumes will be going out over the next three days running up to xmas, one a day with no indent or additional anything, just as their creators and the Lord intented them to be heard.

These are our last podcasts of 2008, we’ll return in the new year for more of the same. Massive thanks to all the listeners, labels and artists who have supported Turntable Radio this year. And a massive thanks as well to the Turntable Radio extended family: Mr Trick, 2tall, Ed Rooth, Ken One, Naoki and everyone else I might have forgot! If you’re still feeling hungry after this, then don’t forget to check Rhythm Incursions’ festive offering, a 2008 best of mix.

See you all in 2009!

New site live – mind the paint!

If you’re a regular visitor to both this site and our sister show Rhythm Incursions then this probably won’t be that much of a surprise to you. Regardless welcome one and all to the brand spanking new Turntable Radio site. Mind the paint while we finalise things here and there.

While it all looks different everything else is pretty much the same: you can now access all the latest shows from the front page, as well as the latest videos. Feeds from all our other sites are the right hand side as well as various other handy navigation bits. Our Soundcloud dropbox is on the right side too, so if you’re an artist, label or PR person and want us to hear your music just use that or drop us a line via the contact form (top menu).

That’s about it, hope you enjoy and let us know your feedback below. Next one is the Trick & Wrongtom site and then after that it’s Spin Science and we’re all done for 09. Now excuse me I have to get back to some xmas related programming… more on that soon.

peace

Laurent & Mr Trick
