Stefan Landsberger's Chinese Propaganda Posters Pages "If we are to teach real peace in this world, and if we are to carry on a real war against war, we shall have to begin with the children." - Mahatma Gandhi Hello Dear Friends! Yes, it's time for your weekly dose of Contrast Podcast, and this week's theme is "War and Peace." As ever, it's produced an outstanding crop of tunes, but, somewhat worringly, it seems to be almost all War and [...]

Contrast Podcast 18 is out today, and boy is it a treat! The tracks themselves are all instrumentals, but the intros are all sung. Ye gods!! And yes, I managed to overcome my fear (but not my tunelessness) and take part. Gird your loins and download it here - it may take some time, but it's worth it. Just remove all glass, small children, and those with nervous dispositions from the immediate area. At least when my bit comes on. Playlist: (00:00) Dexys Midnight Runners - The Horse Tim from the face [...]
The new Contrast Podcast is up and considering this weeks theme is a personal favorite of mine I direct everyone's attention this way. The theme? Instrumentals with sung introductions, which is flipping awesome! And I have to give my respect to all who participated this week, because I totally didn't have enough guts to sing an intro, also how difficult would it be for me to narrow down an
I can't sing. Animals in pain sound better than I do. More melodic. With slightly less yelping. But that didn't stop me giving it a damn good go. Though I use the word, 'good' in the loosest possible way. Anyway, the new Contrast Podcast is up and this week all contributors had to choose an instrumental track and then sing their introduction. Some of it is pretty. Some of it plain isn't. Go here to hear me, Fil , Tim , Simon and [...]

It's already a new week? One thing that flew past me in the craziness of last week was a mention of the new Contrast Podcast that I contributed to, where a bunch of us bloggers get together to virtually DJ a radio show. The theme last week was " Who? " and I finally contributed a most excellent Pearl Jam track ("Who You Are"). I held out on the PJ for a while but hey, what do you expect? This upcoming week Tim will be putting together Contrast Podcast [...]

The latest Contrast Podcast is now out and I urge you ALL to download it here or subscribe to the RSS feed here this week's theme of "When I Was 16 I Liked..." means it's chock full of raging hormones, delicious fashion disasters, teen angst, and snotty attitude.

Our theme this time is really superb, so carve out an hour of your day to spend with your favorite bloggers as we all pick our Favorite Beatles Covers . Since everyone and their grandma feels the need to record a Beatles cover at some point in their [...]
Just a quick post tonight. So I thought I'd cast my discerning eye around the interweb and let you know about some interesting things that have caught my attention of late. First up, Contrast Podcast 14 has gone live and if you pop on over here you'll be able to hear 16 of the world's best mp3bloggers plus me, introducing their favourite songs with French lyrics. But before you go there, can I just offer my apologies for the bad French accent and use of the most basic French that I could [...]
