Take a Drive, with MrPete

Thursday, October 20, 2005

Just a quick note...

I seem to be having a serious problem with hosting at the moment, as in the server the DriveCast is on has been switched off ><
I don't know how long it will last, but I'm looking to changing my hosting anyway (whether a server at home or managed).

My sincere apologies everyone! This was something I wasn't expecting, especially after getting a fantastic show as number 8!!

Will repost number 8 when I've hosting sorted.
Safe journeys till then,
MrPete

Drivecast #8 - A Drivecast Special!

Hey everyone! Had a rather special Sunday just gone, where I got to get the creator of wonderful music & verse Ellen Brogan on the show. Also joining us was Ellen's brother John Brogan, who appeared on show #2! So, on a haystack somewhere in the Fens, on a sunny but windy day (apologies for the windnoise!), here's what happened:

- Joined by Ellen & John Brogan

~ "Peggy Gordon" (Trad.)
~ "The Minstrel Boy" (Trad.)
- John never says much...
~ "Silence" - A John Brogan special
~ "Rhythms" - Improvised rhythms from the 3 of us
- An audience!!
- A little about Ellen's musical history (Ely Cathedral)
~ "Carrick Fergus" (Trad.)
- When I met the Brogans (www.weebls-stuff.com)
- Feedback from the fans!

- Which car would I have?
- Celsius v Fahrenheit? Don't forget poor Kelvin!
~ "Cry My Tears" (Ellen Brogan)
- Any questions & comments for Ellen, email her via Drivecast@gmail.com
~ "In the light of the Moon" (Ellen Brogan, recorded at home)


As the sun started to set on a glorious afternoon, we parted ways for another time...

Drivecast #7 - A Tribute to John Peel

As some of you may be aware, last October one of the greatest advocates for new music sadly died of a heart attack. For over 40 years, John Peel had played literally thousands of new up & coming bands on his show on Radio 1.

As a tribute to the amazing work he did, and thanks to the PodShow PodSafe Music Network and the artists out there, I dedicate this show to the memory of SIR John Peel.

Enjoy...

- Smeer "Broken"
- Brain Buckit "Rocket Science
- Andy Zipf "Are we going Down"
- Robin Tymm "She made me love her"
- The Pen Name "This is a side of Me you never see" (unmixed)
- Aux & Big Mike "My Baby done left Me"
- Pilotdrift "So Long"
- Ambient Light "Sjörök"
- CJacks "Schrodinger's Cat Paradox"
