Coming hard, Bro'...
After a relaxing month away from the microphone, here is the forty-fifth episode of the Crow Versus Crow Radio Show.
Although, as it's based on my recent listening habits, it nearly comprised of Wu Tang Clan and 'Don't' by Dinosaur Jr. exclusively, within the first episode of the new year (always different, always the same) there are tracks from older favourites such as The Fall (always different, always the same), Mogwai and Dinosaur Jr.; new releases from numerous newly established UK-based independent/DIY labels, such as Paul Carr/Build Music, Rejections/Reject and Fade and Spirit of John/Gin House Records, to name a few; 'Klassic Trax' that I make no apologies for/feel no need to make justifications for - kwallity iz kwallity, after all; and a specially composed
Beast Tapes of 2012 mix from Posset, comprising his selection of cassette-only finery from the last year.
Headphones are definitely recommended. Jumpers too, if it's cold.
If you are at all interested in the work of the artists featured in this episode, please support the artists and labels through purchasing their records and attending their shows where possible.
