Fresh from dropping an immense mix for Sonic Router and with his new 12″ about to drop on Fat City Recordings (did you grab his 45 from http://MindonFire.co.uk ?), Danny Drive Thru returns to Groovement in style.

Danny flexes his selection muscles with some mad ish, a precursor of sorts to his planned 2012 series of podcasts going by that very moniker…

If you fancy a visual slash Christmassy accompaniment, check the ustream embed below, featuring a guest appearance by Groovement Cat himself.

Recorded this week at Groovement Towers, the architect of one of Groovement’s albums of the year lays down a sublime selection of tracks for the podcast.

Mecca:83‘s been skulking in the shadows a good few years now, particularly around the Manchester hip hop scene. The jazzy Rise album snapped our attention away from lesser musics earlier this year with its release on Simon S’ Futuristica record label, and the following Mecca:83 EP cemented what we had already guessed: Evan Jones is a badman.

AIR ADAM is pure hip hop knowledge embodied. Part of the Neighbourhood crew in Manchester, and formerly of Family Gathering, Adam releases a monthly, intricately made podcast for the heads: http://podcast.airadam.com/

It’s been a long time coming to get him on the show after an aborted attempt two years ago (the radio station was all locked up, obviously scared of Air Adam’s badman selection for a Sunday morning), and a genuine pleasure to hear him spinning. Enjoy!

Recorded at Fuel Withington this Monday just gone, Jonny Shire has been a long time coming in to do a Groovement session.

He is one of Manchester’s keenest music fans, with a vinyl library to challenge anyone you throw at him.

Jonny has run the night Oui Dig! from a variety of fine establishments, booked sheer quality acts at Matt and Phred’s jazz club from the Tru Thoughts and Wah Wah 45s rosters, and continues to spurt out musical meanderings across the city. He also has very strong, vinyl-carrying shoulders.

Whisking them away into DJ A-UP's toy room, this episode of Groovement sees a room full of like minded cats chatting shit about video games and music. Friendships were formed, memories shared and action figures rapped at. Join us!

MARY ANNE HOBBS joined Groovement in the back room of Hoya Hoya’s third birthday party at the Roadhouse in Manchester, where together with Hudson Mohawke she formed the mystery element of this time’s Secret Series (five nights of unadvertised and unannounced headliners). Mary Anne had previously worked with Hoya when she played at their Warehouse Project curation. We hooked up before her set to chat post-Radio 1 life, her contribution to Black Swan and Hoya Hoya.

Matt and Phred’s Jazz Club saw another excellent booking in February with the arrival of ARIYA ASTROBEAT ARKESTRA to the stage – nine members filled up the stage and I haven’t seen the venue that full… well, ever. A lovely bunch of chaps and deserving of big things, the lads came together after working disparately on a number of projects in the Leeds/First Word fam. Awareness of their self titled album continues to grow since its release as they fill up venues everywhere.

Took a week longer than expected this one, so please excuse the delay. Thank you for all the love on the HELZ mix, we’re both chuffed with how well it’s done!

Until we’re back up and running with a studio proper, we’ll keep churning these out as long as people listen, so please support and share whenever you can. Comments are greatly appreciated below!

Well chuffed to have BLUE DAISY join us after his gig at HOYA:HOYA this weekend past – 25 minutes of chat about the new album, prog rock and more.

First Groovement episode of 2011 brings a range of new (and old) music to the fore, all around a central idea of beats. Enjoy.

Mic might be a little muffled in places, did this show straight into the laptop rather than through a mixer, but it sounds more underground that way no?

Thanks for listening.

Rather than a top whatever of tunes of the year, we proudly present a collection of tracks from Groovement participants in 2010. Happy new year.

It's about bloody time we heard from FINGATHING aka SNEAKY and PETER PARKER (minus illustrator extraordinnaire CHRIS DRURY) - although Sneaky now lives in Berlin he'd been in Manchester for a bit to play a stonkin' live show at Matt & Phred's Jazz Club, so Groovement collared him and Peter Parker to come and play with toys and put a little podcast together.

Brand new album UNDEAD (working title) is due for release around April time, so here we have a couple of world exclusive previews from that in accompaniment to a lush selection from the lads.

Excuse the occasional crackle, Serato was being ridiculous.

Star Slinger currently resides down the road from Groovement Towers in Manchester, so nipped round to record this of a Sunday afternoon. I'd heard bits and bobs of his stuff over the past few months and it's deep. Here's a quick summary of things:

* Working on the Teams Vs Star Slinger project out early 2011 on Mexican Summer
* Touring USA with Anticon's BATHS in February
* Remixing Indie bands by chopping up the originals
* Volume 2: Jetpack Jam out soon
* Is also SEEING SUGE with Emay and Blackbird Blackbird

A Mix For Groovement
http://www.naturalselfmusic.com/

Natural Self’s music has always been about beats straight from the soul via the heart, and it’s a genuine honour to have him contribute an exclusive mix for Groovement.

He’s currently working on his new album as well as a slew of remixes for heads such as YULT, Theophilus London and Stac. Keep up to date on his goings on by visiting his website above.

October 2010

Prior to a storming 3 part set at Matt and Phred's in Manchester, Groovement sits down with the beautiful and funny Lizzy Parks to chat about making music and her upcoming work.

Presented by Agent J – this is the first show NOT on Unity Radio since Groovement started in October 2007 (three years ago exactly, numbers fans). Big plans are afoot for Phase Two of Groovement Radio, plans where Groovement can continue to support the thriving and inspirational music scene in Manchester and beyond, something which we would not have been able to do to our desired standard had we stuck within the restrictions of a proto-commercial FM licence. It also means we can bring the focus back onto Manchester at an international rather than solely local level, through podcasting.

For now, though, it’s back to basics.

In town as part of the Red Bull Music Academy takeover of last weekend which saw Hudson Mohawke, Actress and Kode 9 amongst others hit Manchester (specifically the Roadhouse for Hoya Hoya), DEBRUIT dropped into Groovement over at Unity Radio to deliver a live set together with tunage from Mooken and Jonny Dub of HOYA HOYA. 

I've been following Debruit for a while;  his hip hop production has a real bounce to it as displayed especially over the last couple of EPs (with 3D covers no less) - his newest release, out imminently, is a digital package BEATS 4 HAITI sampling Haitian music with all proceeds going direct to victims of the earthquake.

Behold, un podcast magnifique.

ROCK 'N' ROLL SPECIAL PART 1!

As well as being a lover of 50s vintage, cheesecake and hair rock, native Mancunian Miz DeShannon has been a regular on the city’s music scene for the last few years, working for various clubnights, festivals and venues. Miz runs the Northern Quarter’s MAPS Festival which we DJ’d at in 2009, as well as being a presenter on Channel M. Here are her favourite prog, punk, glam and speed rock anthems. There is also a MAPS cat.

The snow was falling and spirits were high... Crackers and mince pies litter the studio with flute, guitar and beatboxing ready to go for the Mouse Outfit Christmas Special on Groovement.

Live performances from the band round out the show after each (available) member chooses a couple of their favourite tunes.

Also joining us is Manc beatmaker Danny Drive Thru with a brand new track in anticipation of his beat on the new Fat City compilaiton PRODUCERS #2.

If you don't know about the Mouse Outfit then go here. They’re ending the year on a high with a recent appearance on BBC Radio 1Xtra’s Ras Kwame Homegrown podcast, last week’s Craig Charles Funk and Soul Show and some airplay on BBC Radio 6’s Tom Robinson show later today.

Originally broadcasts Sunday 20th December 2009 on Unity Radio

Videos of live tracks from the show:

Groovement was blessed with the presence of Qool DJ Marv this session, after he flew in from New York to play at the launch of the new Trus’me album, In The Red, at Band on the Wall.

Marv has been playing the Friends and Family/Fat City parties in Manchester for many a year, even taking the vibe to New York for the Turntables on the Hudson party. Some interesting chat on his history with Manchester and his musical journey accompanies an impeccable choice of tunes for this podcast.

Qool DJ Marv is known worldwide for his unpretentious and open-armed approach to playing a set: have a listen to a grand list of mixes over at the Qool DJ Marv podcast site: www.djqoolmarvsounds.podomatic.com

Thank you Marv for jumping on board!

It's been a long time coming for FINGATHING bass wielder SNEAKY to come and drop into the Groovement studio at Unity Radio. Residing in Berlin and busy beavering away at solo projects including remixes and his own debut album FEEL LIKE A KING... PLUCK A STRING in 2009, Sneaky was still coming down from an earth-shattering live set at newly-reopened Manc venue Band on the Wall the previous night. A healthy selection of mixed up vibes to float away to.

Keep up to date on Sneaky's latest activities including the Soul Concentrate series of mixes over at www.thisissneaky.co.uk

It really has been the Mouse Outfit's year in 2009. The many-faceted live hip hop funk band have made audiences get on up across the country, so much so that they have appeared at BBC Introducing and supported the likes of Speech Debelle, Gentlemen's Dub Club and Akil out of Jurassic 5.

Here one of the main Mouse protaganists, producer and keys man Chini, takes you through some of his influences as well as his own beats: a veritable selection of hip hop, soul and more to whittle away a couple of hours to...

The 8Bitch resides in Glasgow and makes bass. Groovement's been trying to squeeze a podcast out of her for ages and is very pleased to present what popped out the other day. She's been getting a great reception to her own music of late from the likes of the Wire (at least I think it was good? There were some pretty long words in there...) so we're chuffed to catch her before she blows up into the stratosphere. Enjoy with Buckfast.

Liam Q has been a longtime friend of Groovement since he first came off the boat a few years ago with Beat Boutique nought but a mishcievious twinkle in his Northern Irish eyes. Since then the Boutique has gone from strength to strength in Manchester with a plethora of true soul heads guest DJing. Liam's deep knowledge of soul saw him graduate from running the Belfast Soul Club to being sought after as a soul DJ for Duffy's first major tour, while he has know set up the Chorlton Soul Club in Manchester as a more intimate original 45s sessions.

Returning this year with a massively soul-tinged LP 'Of All The Things', Jazzanova held down a two-night residency at Manchester's newly-reopened Band on the Wall venue. 48 dates and counting with the full live band the lads were about ready for a break but still found the time to have a post-gig chat with Agent J of Groovement, bringing along Detroit mainman Paul Randolph, who provided honeysoul drenched vocals for the evening.

Recorded October 2009 @ Band on the Wall, Manchester UK.

Fading into our existence for only a short time, slamming it down at Hoya Hoya in Manchester for Hallowe'en (together with Alphabet Zoo's Danny Breaks) with a live set, Agent J of Groovement shoots the ethereal shit with the don of the Afrikan Space Program, Brainfeeder's Ras G.

Recorded November 2nd, 2009 @ Hoya Hoya towers, Manchester.

BORN WITH TEETH, Crowhead's debut album for Aim's label ATIC records, has dropped recently and here's a smattering of tunes and commentary to go with it. Crowhead's previous Groovement podcast was one of the most well-received we'e done and he hasn't disappointed for the second. '92 rave styles meet classic hip hop meets chilled vibes, all sprinkled with treats from Crowhead's new LP and Bsides to the 12-inches that have been released so far.

Massive thanks to Crowhead for his time, and big shout to Unity Radio boss Greens for dropping in towards the end.

Well, well, well... a couple of weeks after joining us in the studio with Brackles, Daedelus returns to our humble Manchester studio with a special friend in tow in the form of the MotherFucking Gaslamp Killer.

Jonny Dub of Hoya Hoya kicks us off with some typical Hoya fatness before Daedelus digs out his UK purchases and spins us some scratchy vinyl. Gaslamp drops some ill and upfront shit from his iPhone while Illum Sphere gets a late train in to finish us off.

MONSTER of a show, and a direct result of Hoya KILLING it at the Warehouse Project the night before. The only way is up, gentlemen.

Originally broadcast on www.UnityRadio.fm on Sunday 25th October 2009.

I caught up with Speech Debelle a couple of weeks after her Mercury win. I was initially anticipating interview overload on her part but to her credit we had an enjoyable little chat about hip hop, education and Mcdonald's amongst other things.

She played Night & Day Cafe in Manchester following our natter, and certainly delivered the goods in terms of performance and audience interaction. Considering the Mercury win and small venue however, I was a bit gutted to see the place wasn't rammed - what does a hip hopper have to do to fill a place out, eh?

You know, I've got a very soft spot indeed for Wah Wah 45s. Been buying them for years in fact, in their little blue and white sleeves with a little contact number on the back and that naughty little logo. You just know that each piece of wax has been chosen specifically to convey a musical mesage, not cos it's some shit remix or the like. So big ups to the label that 'promises all the right records, but not necessarily in the right order'. Dom Servini & Simon Goss (with guidance from brother Chris) deliver twisted blue-eyed soul, future boogie, Hungarian funk, and Brit folk like you've never heard before... as the myspace says.

Here is a WONDERFUL podcast from Main Man Dom Servini to celebrate the tenth anniversary of Wah Wah and indeed its associated shinding at the Scala in London. Groovement is very proud to host this... kick back, dim the lights and swoon to the lusicous tones of Mr Dom Servini...

STONKER of a show today with a plethora of guests… swooping in from Nottingham like a dubstep Robin Hood, Brackles killed it at the Roadhouse for Hoya Hoya.

Kidkanevil’s fresh from his recent Public Service Announcement Mix for the Good People at Groovement and has a new LP imminent: we also have Daedelus meander into the studio for a petit chat and Eliphino luriking in the background...

All this under the warm yet moist wings of hoya hoya mafiosi Jonny Dub and Illum Sphere, plus Groovement host Agent J. BIGGGGG.

At long last Northern Comfort set foot on Groovement sands and what a treat it is. RobD and CatCalledMorris whip out their Sunday best for a true spiritual journey. Keep on the top of Manchester best music blog over at www.northerncomfort.co.uk , as well as their regular nights down at the Salutation in Hulme, Manchester.

Next one is this coming Saturday 19th October with Manc leg-end Andy Madhatter.

Stephanie visited the UK only six weeks after giving birth to fulfill her live dates at the Mint Lounge in Manchester and the Southport Weekender - not only this but she was subjected to the Groovement treatment too...

Thanks so much to Stephanie for being warm and welcoming despite limited rehearsal time with a great new backing band who rocked the Mint Lounge...
_____________

Big shout to promoter Pass The Feeling On for having the motivation and dedication to bring some real NY soul to Manchester. Check the blog at www.passthefeelingon.blogspot.com.

The podcast is topped and tailed by 'Jackson Avenue' and Stephanie's cover of Willie Mason's 'Oxygen' respectively, both from second long player TELL IT LIKE IT IS. Tracks playing under the interview are from debut MCKAY - track it down or find its AKA, TAKE ME OVER on iTunes.

A five way phone conversation to preview the upcoming UK tour! As Unity Radio, home of Groovement, is based in Manchester we're focusing on the Mint Lounge show **23rd September 2009 folks** - I'll be hooking up with the Five and Blow in physical form upon landing, but for now we shoot the shizzle about the tour, truths and more.

Originally broadcast Sunday 23 August, www.UnityRadio.fm.

Having been denied entry back in October when he came over to play at Riot Jazz, it was a pleasure to finally catch Ghostface on a Manc stage.

Following the show and preceding the groupies, Groovement shot the shit with the big D about the next album (which we know to be titled 'The Wizard of Poetry'), feeding kids and the London show...

Big shout to Chunky aka Hank del Chunkus, Manc host de Hit N Run mas famoso, who killed the MC contest on stage and came out victorious!

On hand to provide some perspective during the wait for Ghost were John and Maz from No Limits Hire, drivers extraordinnaire to the celebrity world.. check em out over at www.nolimitshire.co.uk, together with a video testimonial from Tony Starks himself.

Thanks to the mans like Illum Sphere and Jonny Dub, Groovement landed these two LA hipsters in front of its microphone back in April: Gaslamp was playing fastbecominglegendary club night Hoya Hoya together with Sean Vinylment of Finders Keepers at the Roadhouse in Manchester, while FlyLo was visiting the Mint Lounge on a Monday night in an event put on by Hit n Run, Hoya Hoya and New Bohemia.

A little warning: the FL interviews swerves into deep geek territory. If you’re averse to videogames and comics, turn away after the first twenty minutes…

Broadcast on Groovement Sunday 26th July 2009.. Thanks Neil! Take pity on Neil everyone, as he does not have the internet and has to rely instead on pirated cassette copies he might come across down t’market.

Agent Che and Boperson will be taking to the decks at FOLK in Manchester Friday 14th August...

The Ital Duke cut his teeth on the sounds of Reggae with Ska band The Frustrations back in Oxford, where he immersed himself in the heavy sounds of Jamaica's finest Dub and Reggae producers.

The Duke moved to Sheffield in 2007 and started in radio with the 'Dub Revolution' show (SureRadio) which blasted out reggae, dub, ska and conspiracy theories as and when they were needed (frequently).

He then began DJing under the title of 'The Ital Duke' around Sheffield and started the 'Ital Sounds' show (forgeradio.com), this time as himself - Ben Webster - in 2008, which serves up a hearty portion of Reggae, Dub and Ska with extra Dubstep, Hip-Hop, Soul and anything else Ital every Thursday evening.

Groovement hooked up with the Duke when he was spinning at one of the Colonel's legendary gigs in Sheffield, saw the fire in his eyes and got him on here! Enjoy...

Jimmy Screech warmed up for Ugly Duckling at the Ruby Lounge in Manchester, and Groovement was on hand to grab him for a niiice interview.

Despite being flu-ridden and frankly knackered mate, Jimmy was more than happy to shoot the shit with Groovement - also along for the ride were Gordon G, who heads up the Banana Klan label with Roots Manuva. Gibbs, he of the fold-away keyboard, and DJ Mr Cosmo provided the remaining ambience. Enjoy, this Groovement is both informative and pretty funny.

Recorded February 2009.

Anticipating their first birthday with the Apples, Foreign Beggars and Broke 'n' English, Riot Jazz have gone from strength to strength in the past year. Past guests at the Riot Jazz experience have included Kidkanevil, Jenna G, Skinnyman, Belleruche and very nearly the Ghostface Killah...

Will Holland is a top bloke. Not only this, he's now a Colombia-dwelling top bloke, so can be relatively hard to get hold of.
In December he visited the UK; Groovement grabbed a pre-breakfast chat with him the morning after his Friends and Family session at the Mint Lounge in Manchester.

Pod in for an insight in Will's views on latin music and breakfast.

ROCKERS REVOLT: THE STORY SO FAR

Rockers Revolt is a record label set up by UK dub collective Pama Intl. Pama includes in its line up Sean Flowerdew, Finny and Lynval Golding (of The Specials), all of whom can be heard talking about the tour and label in this podcast.

Inspired by the great independent labels; Stax, Studio One, Stiff Records and a deep-rooted DIY philosophy. What started out as being the outlet for Pama Intl's own material, has grown into a burgeoning home for the finest soul-fueled reggae, ska, rocksteady, dub & roots artists from the UK and abroad.

In Summer 2008 Rockers Revolt upped sticks and took to the road for the REGGAE FOR THE PEOPLE tour including PAMA INTL, THE SLACKERS, THE PIETASTERS with MUNGO'S HI FI between bands.

Agent J chased up the REGGAE FOR THE PEOPLE tour over in Sheffield, UK and sat down with members of Pama, Mungos and the Slackers. Come join us for insights into the Specials reunion, Lynval's Duffy love, Pama's TROJAN experience and the world of an independent label.
