This month’s mix for NTS Radio is predictably a spring wish fulfillment dream–lots of lush, green sounds, animals, a Dip In The Pool song that sounds uncannily like Scritti Politti, Gal Costa doing a live version of “Volta” that makes me cry forever, and the original and excellent version of “Kokorowa,” which you may have heard covered by Love, Peace & Trance. I hope you like it! You can download an mp3 version here if you like it. Cover image is by Hirō Isono.
I also wanted to apologize for how quiet it’s been around here recently–I’m very much still here and appreciate that some of you have reached out to check in! I generally try to avoid too much cross-promotion, but I have a food project that has been keeping me unbelievably busy for the past few months and I’ve been struggling to keep up. I’ve been missing having music be an active part of my life and am very much looking forward to stepping back into it. Thanks always for reading and being here 💙

greetings, just discovered your nts show through some much-needed cultural trawling. your mixes are a cool breath of fresh air in a dusty oxford library. i will pray for your ears to stay impeccably well tuned. yours fraternally, alastair. p.s. if you’re ever in London and down for a boogie, you will remain indefinitely on the Cabin Fever g-list.
