To:read

* Alan Vega interview (Alainfinkielkrautrock)
* The April edition of Textura magazine with around 50 reviews.
* Watch VBS.TV, the official tv of Vice guys, with great micro music / street life documentaries
* Wired on P2P and music economy.
* Microtonal Music on Wikipedia.

I can’t take the whole credit for this, thanks to my sucky mixing skills and an occasional bad apple. Not to bore you with our petty in-house dynamics, mersenne corrected my poor excuse for fade outs and squeezed in a song from his own vault. This time the set’s more moodier than usual (at least the second half is) and it goes on and off between Polish bossa-nova, mechanic electronica, Turkish prairie folk and Japanese engineers. Enjoy the show if you haven’t already enjoyed it on Dinamo.fm.
