Wow. What a blast last night was in the Disco Scratch chatroom.
Seriously, it was nothing but good times throughout the 2.5 hours with Norman graciously taking his summer holiday.
If you were listening in live right to the end then you will have heard the bonus Easter Eggs such as the classic Tie Me Kangaroo Down, Finch and Straight Outta Tipton, as well as some early Waxer productions AND an exclusive first-play of the unreleased studio mix of a track featuring Whirlwind D, '32 And Tea'.
Boomshanka!
Wow, again. '...Kangaroo' is a classic with it's ingenious use of a particular Simon Harris voiceover over Rolf Harris but '..Tipton', well, that's another story. I've heard this a number of times and yet I still fall about giggling with tears in my eyes EVERY TIME. Whoever made this is truly a master of this craft.
Again, this extra content is only available to the live listeners after the 2-hour show is over.
Anyway, as to the show itself - the last ABU! Takeover Show of the summer - it's now available for download below.
Thanks to everyone who tuned in last night. If you missed it then grab it now.

looking fwd to hearing this, that track list got me.

Superb as ever Ben, particularly enjoyed that Stitch by Stitch track & some nice tinkering on Rainforest. Even Captain Sensible was strangely enjoyable. Extra points for the Run DMC/Beasties skit and the They Live sample! What documentary was that "I kill you man!" snippet from? I used to work in a record shop and the guy that I worked with brought in that documentary one day and for the next month that was the phrase of the moment; "Get me a cup of tea or I KILL YOU MAN", "file that CD under easy listening or I KILL YOU MAN". You get the gist. Thanks for the reminder!
Cheers Mark.
That Stitch by Stitch track was a very late addition to the show - in fact I took out another track to accommodate it - thanks to our mutual friends at OSHH. I hadn't heard that for years and just had to include it.
Yep, that's the only Capt Sensible track that ever gets play around my house ;-)
And of course I KNEW you'd recognise this month's cult movie snippet ...!
But Mark.....after reading your comment about the I KILL YOU MAN dialogue in the show I thought you were joking. Then realised that you weren't!
I'll give you a clue as to the name of the documentary. It's a cult classic usually spoken about in the same sentence as one might speak about Wild Style.....? Yes?
Mostly about graffiti writers?
Features SEEN, CAP, SKEME, ZEPHYR, MIN, DURO, MARE.......?
Ah, I sense we're talking about Style Wars here. Well how about that - I have seen Style Wars after all. Thanks for not laughing too hard at my schoolboy error!
