RC 378: Not Alone

This podcast is called Not Alone after the final track from The Indelicates but it almost got called sarcastically ’80’s Boomer Shit’ as a sort of Bootie Chatpod in-joke/shade (I’m Gen-X btw and firstly I get rather fed up of being conflated with another generation – those of us who were young in the 80’s are Gen-X not boomers; and the lazy accusation that Sowndhaus is full of ‘OOK 80’s Bootlegs’, both from a younger generation. These aren’t OOK btw :-P).







But certainly it does have a lot of music from the 1980’s in it! Or new music by 80’s artists (Orbital just scrapes in by one month), and when I was making the Depeche Mode vs Yazoo mashup played in this podcast I was like, does anyone except old dusty bearded types even give a shit about this? ‘Does anyone care’ is sadly a common thought at the moment…







A more upbeat podcast than 377 which started uptempo and slid into introversion, this is pretty much all in your face – techno, house, drum and bass, breakcore, electronica, synthwave, funk, hiphop, rave, 80’s electropop new and old, and a few genres I am not really sure what they are! We pay tribute to Orbital’s new album ‘Optical Delusion’, the new Depeche Mode single ‘Ghosts Again’ and salute Trugoy Dove of De La Soul.









Give it all you’ve got till you won it, then throw it asideHiding in a ball isn’t gonna do you any good I know I really don’t wanna get fucked in a working worldBut it’s such a lucky day, I dance, dance…
