Indigo FM Radio Show Podcasts

Bernie, Sandy and Michael continue to tackle the randomly selected themes from the box of oblique strategies.  This episode the theme is Mute and Continue.  In his research Bernie came across a label called Mute Records and so he delved into their back catalogue of published albums for the show.  Sandy plays tracks from posthumous albums that were record before the death of a musician.  And Michael ridicules his own take on the theme but plays a number of great songs from the past, all of which have a long instrumental introduction (more than one minute).  Our next show, in two weeks, is the renowned and much anticipated Christmas Extravaganza.

We ran with a folk theme today.  Scott Landells popped in for a chat.

Part 1: Join Tony and Shippa as they drive to the showroom to test drive their new car…oh wait! Shippa’s confused again…they’re not reviewing the K-Class Mercedes! They’re interviewing the extremely talented singer/songwriter Kaiyah Mercedes. Yes, spend an hour finding out more about this extraordinarily gifted young woman, and let your ears be tempted by some delicious musical offerings…and some examples of rather bad Dad jokes! Thank goodness they weren’t side-splitting, right Kaiyah?!

Part 2: Tony and Shippa discuss new and old tracks from current Indie Artists, former Indie Artists and a classic or two. On this podcast, we introduce Munroe (Melbourne), Ally Row (Gippsland, Vic), Ruby Jones (Melbourne), Chloe Styler (Gold Coast), Shane Papatolicas (Melbourne), Bluebottle Kiss (Sydney), Stahr (Brisbane), Ebbb (London), Pacific Avenue (Gerringong, NSW) and Holocene (Melbourne), with Shippa’s Surprise divulging their wish to Curl Up And Die!
