DC 505 Sandy Bottoms

Thu, 26 Jan 2012 10:58:11 -0800

This week, dull and not feeling great, no sleep, wanting the summer. Glitter Tweet a fake, a social exercise apparently. New Zealand Girl sells space on bottom for tattoo, and makes reserve! More thoughts on IPTV and Netflix/Lovefilm. Beach Volleyball the most popular sport for UK politians for Olympics, but no sand on the Thames, and Porn industry fined for not supplying staff with condoms. Protective equipment is a must.

DC 504 Glittering Space Monkeys

Thu, 19 Jan 2012 11:25:35 -0800

This week, fixing things, and having a good feeling about it. Sopa and Pipa, policies against piracy, but effects liberties. The capsized cruiseliner and the stupid captain, Choking yourself to get a fix?, how screwed up is that? Famous kiddie fiddler, Gary Glitter announces come back tour. Netflix launches in the UK, much disappointment, and Ed Sherran up for lots of Brit Awards, good luck to him.

DC 503 Dumb Dripping

Thu, 12 Jan 2012 10:52:03 -0800

This week, broken things, manic things, dripping things. But we should chill with some great tunes. MusicPodcasting is not dead, it just redirects funny. Ted Nugent for President, and No Doubts Twitter Feed hacked to endorse Ron Paul? Why?. UK usage of twitter low in the UK over Facebook, which explain why there was no ticks against it on my poll last week. Tony Iommi diagnosed with Cancer. Get well soon! and HMV struggling after christmas results are in. Update Just I was uploading this MusicPodcasting.org returned to normality.

Thu, 05 Jan 2012 10:52:02 -0800

This week, Back from the holiday break with added lethargy. So many social networks, so little time. I want you to help me there. Not doing any more movie reviews and comments, my mate Colin now has that covered. File Sharing now a religion, CD Sales down, download sales up, more people getting music legally now, and Bono's busking days are over. Draw for prizes drawn, and the winners are enclosed.

This week, my mind is mush, and Im in fact wondering what Im doing here? What do I know? Should I cry, laugh, or break stuff! XXX goes up for sale, will this be a money spinner for ISPs to provide this domain? Taking a domain registration in vain, Trent Reznor says 2012 will be a Nine Inch Nails Year, Yay.

Thu, 17 Nov 2011 11:23:21 -0800

This week, lots of great music, interviews and comments, but no submissions to the 500th show. Gervais in the news again with a new show about dwarves, and possible Johnny Depp involvement, boo! EMI are now Sony/Universal, so much for a company thats been around for over 100 years, good news for the artists though. Doctor Who to me made into his first film .....

DC 493 We The Peelists

Thu, 03 Nov 2011 11:29:06 -0700

This week, disappointed. Firstly a new word, thredders, which according to Urban Dictionary means, fed up with. The lack of research by Pete Townshend, and the terrible lecture he gave in John Peels name.

DC 492 The Spooky Blues

Thu, 27 Oct 2011 11:05:51 -0700

This week, Post break blues and 7 years of Peel-less radio. Lethargic about Halloween. Rhythmix to change name, but my prediction is that they will drop out this weekend to save Simon Cowell money. Brian Warner, sorry Maralyn Manson, voted worlds creepiest celebrity fighting off OJ Simpson for spot? Kids would miss mobile phone more than TV, and looking forward to new Sherlock Holmes movie.

DC 491 Muppets and Pillocks

Thu, 20 Oct 2011 11:52:00 -0700

This week, a good but infuriating week, dealing with muppets, giving them one time passes. Last weeks comments dashed, as there is a plan to get a song to Number One instead of XFactor, and they are supporting Rhythmix, the children charity. Getting another copy of something you already have? UK TV to be cut off in 12 months, and my iOS5 voice control voice is a MAN! End of world? Crime Fighting Superheroes needed in London, like Phoenix Jones. My thought on Occupy Wall Street, and Ricky Gervais confirmed as a complete pillock, calling everyone "mongs". Send if your favourite track of the year for show 500, and be up for some prizes. Have you VOTED? Picture: Angelspit

DC 490 Suffer The Minion

Thu, 13 Oct 2011 11:03:51 -0700

This week, cannot get motivated. My predictions for XFactor 2011, and a charity single, even though their audience is down by 2 million this year. Will the Avengers be any good?, Sony again suffer with hacking, what the problem? Sort it. An experiment with a famous voilinist, Joshua Bell busking outside a bus station. An experiment in music. Do you appreciate buskers? You should. Think about Show 500 - I know that it's 10 weeks away. Have you VOTED? Picture: Brooke Waggoner

Thu, 08 Sep 2011 11:29:18 -0700

This week, I've been in a bad mood, Fuming so to speak. I strip down more Socials, for the better methinks. Some Podcasters I know have hit a million downloads. Drunk Elks, and tattle tailing parrots, make my week go well. AC/DC release their own wine to the world, and music has been Elton John plans for a musical olympics.

DC 484 When I Mean NO

Thu, 01 Sep 2011 12:21:22 -0700

This week, enough. When I say No, I mean No. Finding releases other than music and tech, via BikeNoMore, and finding it soothing. Tributes to Amy Winehouse come in. How did she expire? Should I talk about foreign affairs? Dubstep and Grime now in Chambers Dictionary. It's not the OED is it? Spotify open their doors to developers to make it cool. George Clooney bows out of The Man from U.N.C.L.E., I did not realise they were doing one, and Madonna's SEX Book, now one of the most sort after out of print books. Im sure I can find one in Soho, here in London.

This week, A busy, busy weekend, good meetup with a few people I know, and one I don't, Erk from Channel Erk. Clearing out the socials, and do you still read periodicals?. Everyone wants things now now now, and crowdsourced mobile maps, it can be done. Great news for Tom Waits Fans. Sorry Shawn. Napster Film being directed by Bill, sorry Alex Winter, Ridley Scott confirms Bladerunner prequel, but looking forward to Prometheus. Jobs quits, good luck to him, but MySpace soon to be a contender to iTunes or Spotify? People not taking my advice about torrenting. Railcards missing, not happy with Rail companies, or Royal Mail to be honest, but hey - got to get home this bank holiday weekend.

DC 482 Karaoke Riot

Thu, 18 Aug 2011 10:42:46 -0700

This week, back from minibreak, glad that the flat is unscathed from the London Unrest. Becoming a Karaoke King, and the odd "buzz". Indie Labels devastated by burning of distribution center during riots, people making alternative downloads, like Bjork, and her new release. People need Broadband, especially in the Outer Hebrides. David Bowie, who has not been seen live since 2006 has retired, according to his biographer. Some other people I should mention should retire - eh Bono? Weird foreign driving laws released to unwary UK drivers this summer, including women not allowed to drive in a dressing gown in California. WTF?

Thu, 04 Aug 2011 13:17:37 -0700

This week, abstaining from the drink, lack of sleep, and warm weather, but feeling fine. A Slow news week, but Alice Cooper launches own theme park ride, Murdoch gets justice on Pie Guy, EU stops bagpipes being played in Scotland, much to the non-annoyance of the public. Internet Explorer users are not stupid, use an internet browser to browse the Internet, who would have thought it, and Charlie Sheen to appear in Channel 5s "new" show, celebrity big brother. Glad I don't watch TV for the most part. Next week you are really going to get it!

This week, bad news in the Cutler camp. Every extra year a blessing. News of The World Shutdown, and how The Murdochs make money from travesties of justice. iTunes price rise, presumably because of exchange rates, but wonder who things have gone up in the UK rather than down, and Harper Seven, really? Flash in the Pan pop bands, where are they now. Next week an actual break, so it will be a mix tape of great fresh podsafe tunes.

DC 476 Head F___

Tue, 05 Jul 2011 11:24:57 -0700

this week, manic stuff at home and at work. We're all on standby with family issues. Hot weekends. Pirates 4 make $1bn, Teenage Brain predicts Pop Hits with MRI, no kids a fickle. UK Ministers plan to act on something "rumoured" in the US over voluntary filtering of content. I cannot take anyone seriously with a name like Vaizey. Profanity Button failure during iTunes Festivals, just tag it Apple! If you've got explicit on the band albums, that are bound to say ____ on stage.

DC 475 Emergency Redux

Thu, 30 Jun 2011 11:17:55 -0700

This week, panic in the Datacenters of London, hot and balmy London. Glad U2 didn't ruin Glasto. Weekend spent clearing out garden, need to clear out house now. Norwegian Diplomats being schooled in Black Metal, a great export, Pixar working on Toy Story 4, according to the Cowboys mouth, Tom Hanks. Do they need more money after TS3 making $1bn? Gordon Ramsey is no movie artist, as film flops with only 17 watchers at premier. Myspace sold for less than a tenth of the previous buying purchase to Specific Media, lets see if they can revive this sinking ship, and encouraging Creative Commons with Cory Doctorow, a good thing. I had a recent request to syndicate the show to a firm that provides music to shops for a fee, I declined. This show will be free for all, for as long as I make it. Thats a promise.

DC 474 Paradise Denied

Wed, 22 Jun 2011 09:08:00 -0700

This week, coming down with another summer cold, and a new tattoo. Demise of Ryan Dunn, only 34 years young. EMI now up for sale, can you afford a record company with £3.4 billion in debt? Not in the spirit of Glastonbury. U2 to have their own stage, not using the legendary Pyramid Stage as everyone else will. At least someone stands up to them, Edge gets shutdown over Paradise Mailbu building project. Spotify to hit the US?, and hitting Pandora and iTunes in the Process, and 20,000 go to hospital after falling out of bed, what the hell? Picture: Killing for Company

DC 473 Head back and Sparrow

Thu, 16 Jun 2011 12:37:38 -0700

A steady week, with some great tunes dropped to me. Distortion can be good. Take That audience, not there for the music, they are there for drink, drugs, arrests and hospitalisation . Obviously drawing the wrong element. Duke Nukem, can you have a sexist misogynist womaniser? people are not happy with new outing . Anal Cunt vocalist Seth Putnam dies from heart attack at 43 , Scissor Sisters writing songs for Fraggle Rock Movie , who wants to see that? and Doncaster Rovers Mascot sacked for sexy photos for charity, no logic there Rovers!

The web does not break with IPv6 day, and Internet User botherer ACS:Law goes bankrupt, not the right way of brining justice to the internet, obviously.

DC470 Tick Tock Bang Boob

Thu, 26 May 2011 10:43:20 -0700

This week, post Podcrawl analysis, and this week in manic podcast creation. Another long day with thunderstorms and sunshine. Spotify and Facebook union?. A good idea, but might be the end of the competition. The Bieber Strain of Ganja, but who will his legal team sue? Perfume, the start of a slippery slope of demise. Danes reject Marmite, a new Carrie remake? and a strip shooting gallery, courtesy of Duke Nukem. Only a week away before we're on Traxx Radio, stay tuned.

DC 469 164XXX Swell

Thu, 19 May 2011 10:55:56 -0700

This week, a long one, with a painful foot - that cellulitis hits again, but should be up and running ready for Podcrawl this weekend. Some great comments from last weeks show (reminder, must get Patrick Moores Email address). Copyright Law Review going ahead here in the UK - all good news. Earthquakes and Damnation starts on Saturday according to cult in the States, Limewire payout to The RIAA, but I am sure the money will not go to the artists, and Chelsea shows off assets, to get in the Guinness Book of Records for the Largest Pair of breasts, unsightly and scary at the same time.

DC 468 The Biggest

Thu, 12 May 2011 11:05:53 -0700

Still a warm UK this week, with no let up of Sun. A new feed, DarkCompass Specials, coming your way on Tuesday, and news of DarkCompass being syndicated on Traxx Radio, of Brisbane coming soon. Old classic artists like The Cure and Pink Floyd remastering their old albums for a new audience, and breaking into digital. The record industry have nothing to worry about with Downloads now raking in £1 billion, Johnny Depp turning from Pirate to Musician with the help of The Man with the biggest penis in rock, Aerosmiths Steve Tyler. Keanu breaks Manga with a live action Akira? Whitney Huston banned from Prince concerts, how bizarre is that? and I and NASA would like Pluto to get it's planet status back, it's not a conspiracy to get more books reprinted, Honest. A reminder that Podcrawl is only a week away too. So a bumper crop is new and views this week, hence it's over an hour.

DC 467 May-Be

Thu, 05 May 2011 10:28:29 -0700

A sticky week, with a break on Monday, and all the royal stuff over last weekend. Need more live music in my veins, maybe next month. More Podcrawl news, route has been decided. Elisabeth Sladen to appear on TV with new season of SJA, the state of newspapers in the UK, and the progress of The Daily, and with The Telegraph and The Guardian going paywall, do you read these news apps? Star Wars goes Bluray, am I bothered? and Bieber gets egged, teen gets arrested for breaking and entering, trespass and malicious damage. Is Justin Bieber Property?

DC 466 Taxi Anyone?

Thu, 28 Apr 2011 05:28:19 -0700

This week, a mixed bag. Easter weekends, driving over 100 miles each day ferrying around kids.
Sunny and warm, wet and windy, Royal weddings. RIP Elisabeth Sladen and Poly Styrene.
Tescos and blinkbox, two good things get together.
The Tube revival?, nah, but there is something missing music wise.

DarkCompass 462 Fortified Kookaburra

Thu, 31 Mar 2011 11:30:50 -0700

This week, a nightmare, but supported by homemade wine. Getting the live bug again and giving it to other members of the family. MySpace loses more and more users, Men at Work lose their appeal, against Girl Scouts over Down Under Song. Not good for them or EMI. BBC Online goes down, for an hour, some license payers want their money back, some thought it was an Anonymous attack, others the UK government, and big radio site is up for all at radioplayer.co.uk, does it work outside the UK.

DC 461 Fugly Ignorance

Thu, 24 Mar 2011 10:58:11 -0700

This week, back to some kind of normality. Fugly mood over the past few days, not sure why. Libyan Conflict on my mind, with the UK having all these cutbacks, there is still money to bomb the fuck out of people. Decca to sell Royal Wedding, on iTunes. Bono ignored when he tried to give away free CDs. Obviously he did not have his glasses on. On the large side? Don't have sex. Wuthering Fucking Heights, the loss of Dame Liz Taylor, and how I'd like to die. No more advertising on DarkCompass, and the management of Britcaster has changed, to yours truly, check it out.

DC 459 Apocalypse Now and Then

Thu, 10 Mar 2011 11:34:03 -0800

This week, finally out of coughing fits, ish. Getting to grips with people, and how to handle them. Not doing the Facebook/Myspace thing, this is music show, so music site links in future. Spotify, and it's million paying subscribers. The End of DVD with Book of Faces doing Film rentals?, and too much crap on that site with people and their dogs, all having pages. the UK Census and people suggesting we should NOT put Jedi in as a religion, or their pets as family members. Who wants their pet fish to go on Jury Duty? Charlie Sheen, does he need any more advertising, love his idea on looping favourite movies, his? Apocalypse Now.

DarkCompass 458 Don't kill The Innocent

Thu, 03 Mar 2011 13:45:00 -0800

This week, nursing the cough, and too much James Bond. Nothing in the news bar Libya. My thoughts on what everyone needs to do there, fight for your country, but don't kill the innocent. Soundcloud gets 3 million users, do you used cloud music services? Possible Apple cloud services for iTunes, but do not come to the fore with the last announcements. Time, want to be at CET or GMT?, I'm a UTC person. World Book Day, and HarperCollins wants library ebooks to expire. Money grabbing freaks. Don't forget AMPed, this week hosted by yours truly, with my hacking cough. Should be fun.

Thu, 24 Feb 2011 11:57:45 -0800

This week, cooking with fast broadband courtesy of Virgin Media, bye bye BT. Suffering with cough, which is killing me slowly. Breaking down the shed, and brewing wine.Assange extradited, The NME Awards, another way for old record labels to push their wares. U2 to play Glastonbury, another good reason not to go.

This week, end of tether with BT, and my decision to move to Virgin Media. DarkCompass and shows get on TuneIn Smartphone app for on the road listening (Download it here). The Return of Bevis and Butthead, and MTV Music, remember what the M stood for people? Rhianna tune scandal, every girl goes through an S&M phase. Gary Moore shuffle off, and "Gotchya FileSharer" UK Law firm in trouble with both court, the public and their own peers, and iPlayer App hits street is predicted, more coolness from them for everyone soon.

DarkCompass 454 Moon on a Stick

Thu, 03 Feb 2011 11:31:23 -0800

This week, very slow week, people expecting entirely too much from me, and me expecting too much from them, The Moon on a Stick Syndrome. More talk about H2G2, and Douglas Adams. Top Gear get into trouble, with Mexico, Brazillian Christians think USB is Evil, but Bluetooth isn't because Jesus' eyes were blue. Come on. More Stephen King to be made into films and TV, and Killing Joke going on tour again, maybe I'll manage to see them this time. Mumblings grumblings, still not recovered from Xmas, but hey, great music nonetheless.

DarkCompass 441 - Das Ist Verboten

Fri, 28 Jan 2011 01:51:50 -0800

This week, a bit peeved. Second attempt of recording too. Bad cough caught here, and my beef with content providers. Pauley Perrette, enough said. Outstanding contribution award ditched on The Brits, and new award in the hands of Vivienne Westwood?, whatever next? Why do people subject themselves to "I'm a Celebrity"? This time Shawn Rider of The Happy Mondays, and Everest get Mobile connectivity. For the safety of Mountaineers? No. Publicity.

Tom Waits to reissue first four albums … on vinyl, and red vinyl at that!, and protect yourself with ROCK LOCK! Myspace to be sold off by NewsCorp – Good thing, Murdock has murdered that service.

DarkCompass 439 - The Crack

Fri, 22 Oct 2010 03:11:15 -0700

This week, a better than last week one, cracks all fixed. Busy, busy with work and working late, with beer. Murdoch, Rupert that is, moves into Ticket Sales? Why? He's effecting UK politics and media decisions here, when he should not. Git. Looks like we are going to be submitted to another three years of X-Factor and Britains Got Talents, as Cowell signs deal., and a glimpse of humanity as Robber returns data from stolen laptop to rightful owner.
Oh, and some Podcrawl News

DarkCompass 438 - Normality Sucks

Thu, 14 Oct 2010 16:06:00 -0700

This week, an awful one. Flat being destroyed by builders, the new Harry Potter not going to be done in 3D at release because it cannot be done in time, and Bansky release intro for The Simpsons, and gives thought to western decadence. X Factor songs will not chart (until Christmas), but we know what to do! Hammer releases first film in almost 30 years, and the realisation that I need beer to be nice to people.

Thu, 16 Sep 2010 16:29:00 -0700

Pope calls us all non believers Nazis, much respected George Michael goes to Prison after Whamming into a shop under the influence, Maraln Mansons movie canned, trailer too violent, looking forward to American Magees new Alice, andBurglar wants to get the police for having his phone after a break in.

DarkCompass 433 - Ping, Burn, Tax

Thu, 09 Sep 2010 15:01:00 -0700

This week, putting my feet up as instructed by the doctors, so not much to report this week. Book burning priests alike to Nazis, it really makes Americans look uncaring and stupid. Bruce Campbell to make Uber Horrow Comedy, bringing back Robert Englund as Freddy. Did not like the recent remake of Nightmare on Elm Street. 10% of UK citizens await letters from the taxman, and those taxes be used for Papal Visit? Sod the blessing.

DarkCompass 429 - For Ed

Thu, 12 Aug 2010 16:27:00 -0700

This week, a tough one. This show is for Ed, forever remembered as a great guy, only just discovering real ale. Lost whilst playing that noblest of sports, Football. Good luck to him whereever he is.

The show is fueled by Adnams, so bear with me, as I explain why Beautiful women will not make good bank managers, in this day and age, why pay so much for a pudding? and a man plays guitar again ... with his face (and not like Jimi Hendrix). A bit longer than usual, as I have some great music to play before holiday break.

DarkCompass 425 - I Blame Zombies

Thu, 15 Jul 2010 16:23:00 -0700

This week, post Podcrawl analysis, and apathy. Blaming other podcasters for buying great music. Prince, says the net is over - but at least he got his money from trashy newspapers. Driving skills: freaking out onlookers as Zombies escape from crashed car, and blaming carjack for crash, instead of sex whilst driving. RIAA get it badly wrong, spending too much to get so little, the AC/DC burger ready for the Summer, and Guacamole and Salsa is now bad for you.
