Here is Friday 31st March's Top 5. It's a cracker this week, feel free to share it around.

1) Video of the week.

Jon1st - Boiler Room Session

We've been fortunate enough to have Jon1st on The Audio Works Podcast and he is thoroughly tremendous, you can listen to his episode HERE.

2) Track of the week.

Beyonce - Formation

I know it's pop music, I know it's Beyonce, but it is undoubtedly a banger. Excellent production from Mike Will Made It.

3) Quote of the week.

“There are those who love to get dirty and fix things. They drink coffee at dawn, beer after work. And those who stay clean, just appreciate things. At breakfast they have milk and juice at night. There are those who do both, they drink tea.” - Gary Snyder

4) Podcast of the week.

S Town

Another excellent podcast series from This American Life and Serial. Set-up as a true to life podcast about a watchmaker, that through a series of twists and turns ends up quite dark.

5) Gig of the week.

Bronze Nazareth and The Wiseman @ The Garibaldi, 31st April.

Legendary musicians, legendary venue for the legendary entry fee of £0. Do something fun with your life, you have nothing to lose.

Speak to you Friday,

Josh

The 5 best things this week, EVER.

Hey, here it is. Friday 10th June's top five. It's my consolidated list of all things awesome this week. Here we go;

1) Video of the week;

DJ Brace - 2016 Online DMC Finals.

I'm a newcomer to DJ Brace, but as you can see he is both technical and musical in his turntablism style, which is a rarity. I don't think the perfectly timed seagull at the end is planned, which is a sign in itself. On a similar note checkout Jon1st, he has both been on The Audio Works Podcast and is a former DMC champion.

2) Gig of the week;

Knees last ever show!

Local band Knees are unfortunately splitting up, and to join them on their last show are Big Evil Grin and Bloodvisions (at The Garibaldi on Saturday 11th June). This gig will be busy and it will be mighty, three powerhouses on one night, get involved. Hopefully it will be a good show an they'll realise they shouldn't be splitting up anyway.

See you there.

3) Quote of the week;

"I'll burn it down, and build it up better." - Billy Lockett.

This is a lyric from Billy Lockett's single, Burn It Down. It's a great example of what I admire in lyrics, concise but emotional and you understand the feeling immediately.

4) A̶r̶t̶i̶c̶l̶e̶ Book of the week;

The Dirt: Confessions of the World's Most Notorious Rock Band. - by Neil Strauss

New York Times Best Selling author Neil Strauss wrote this fantastic book on the history of Mötley Crüe, and it is shocking, really shocking, not like TMZ shocking, but crazy rock and roll shocking. We have a copy at the studio so please feel free to come and give it a read.

5) Thing of the week;

Arctic Breeze USB Fan

It's hot, and if you don't have air conditioning where you are (or you are not in control of the thermostat) this is the answer. It's cheap and effective, stay cool, be cool.

Speak to you Monday.

Josh.
