Shannon Larratt is Zentastic

I was pulling data off old hard drives this afternoon and stumbled across a website documenting Rachel and my first date (in Jamaica). It's both very suitable and utterly unsuitable for a Valentine's day post? But it was a nice week (note: both Rachel and I are much thinner these days, so excuse the chubby pictures, and the writing is upsettingly pretentious and amateur).

Tonight I'm co-hosting Saira's radio show, doing two forty five minute sets. The first set is a pretty cool mix of late sixties and early seventies psyche-rock and teen beat stuff from Mexico, Peru, Cambodia, Turkey, and Southern Africa, with a bit of Italian soundtrack music thrown in for good measure. If you're the sort that gets high, turn up your speakers and light up for this set. Seriously.

The second set is a “lovesongs for the loveless” mix (I'm all about the daily theme I guess)… It's pretty much what I used to play on my show and on BME/Radio, with some Neil Halstead, Kings of Convenience, Julee Cruise, Mercury Rev, Spiritualized, Papa M, Sodastream, and then a little kick of Phoenix, Pansy Division, and Mika Hase at the end to keep you from staying depressed.
