Had a nice read of the DJ Harvey- Disco Punk feature on RA today, and it made me grin a little…I think every radio mix be it on Beats in Space or EVR with Harvey makes me do the “laugh-out loud-on-the-train thing”  when listening to it on the old iPhone, mainly when he brings his joyful charisma to an interview. I like the Harvey and Kane duo, it makes for a good radio partnership, thanks to Dennis “Citizen” Kane for hooking us up with this mix a while back.

Bringing a smile to everyone’s face here is 2 hours of Harvey and Kane ripping it up!

After  only stumbling into Azari & III today, this tune really caught my attention whilst listening to the the latest Beats in Space. The Roland drum machine sound gives a real old school Detroit style vibe, helped with “inner City” and “stings of life” style chords resonating in the background throughout. Stacks of Jack- then you get the vocals, they are outstanding!

The Comsat Angels were a post-punk band from Sheffield, England, active from 1978 to 1995. Their music has been described as “abstract pop songs with spare instrumentation, many of which were bleak and filled with some form of heartache.”

A great tune played by Tensnake in his recent BIS mix, “I’m Falling” was also featured in the movie Real Genius with Val Kilmer. Awesome jerky 80s pop, it even has some panpipes!

This week I have been listening to a few old “beats in space” podcasts and found a guilty pleasure. He goes by the name of Baris K.

Baris K is a Turkish DJ with influences ranging from 70’s Turkish cosmic disco music, with prevalent psychedelic & Anatolian Rock.

I am 90% sure you have probably heard his music in a Turkish kebab shop somewhere in the East end. This record come with a word of warning, like many office emails you get NSFW, this one is kinda NSOL (not.safe.out.loud.). Anyway I have managed to hunt down a mix by him and also a link to what has to be a Turkish porn tune, but Baris K we love you!
