Georgio Ponticelli has published the playlist to yesterday’s The World in the Mix 3 heard from 5pm to 12am UK time on di.fm.

Georgio wrote this on his website about how it works:

“Have you been wondering how we organize and produce the show?

“First of all I send out invitations to “old” DJs (for the third 3 editions most DJs have been re-selected from the previous edition) and the “new entries”. As soon as everybody has replied, I proceed to deciding the line-up which is then resent to all the DJs. Information and biographies are requested and the info page is created.

“Since it takes about one month to organize the show, I start with a long time advance and I contact the DJs singularly, one by one asking for their playlist. The first DJ on the list has to reply, sending his 3-track playlist so I can pass it on to the next DJ (this way, we avoid tracks being repeated and at the same time, having the previous DJ tracklist helps in keeping the flow in the next minimix).

“As soon as a DJ sends his tracklist he starts mixing his set and then sends it to me, who collect all the sessions and finally mix them together to make the show. Add some comments and jingles and voilà the show is ready ”

Audioscrobbler is indeed a rather cool thing indeed. Wandering around member profiles early last week I was looking for other people into Nerina Pallot. I stumbled across one person who had her in their top-something list of played tracks. At number one was Emm Gryner.

Then I had a look at Emm’s entry on All Music Guide, which is usually the first place I visit when I find a new artist. Four stars all round.

So I then visited the iTunes Music Store and they have some of her albums. What’s missing is her major label debut Public – the rest are all released on her own label, including her debut The Original Leap Year from which Wisdom Bus comes.

The Original Leap Year ranges from piano / vocal tracks, to those with electric guitars, including the shoegazing electric, acoustic and pad drones of Headline Girl (my personal favourite), and the nod-to-Madonna of Wisdom Bus which includes a note sequence nabbed from Dear Jessie and some similarly homaged strings.

Now, the thing is she’s released loads of albums on her own label. Problem is how to get them. Ah, but I’m going to Canada shortly, aren’t I?

Instrumental bands don’t make the best support acts in the world, unless they’re supporting an instrumental band. In which case you’re at a very strange gig indeed.

Electrelane used to be predominantly instrumental. Certainly around the time that I saw them supporting Throwing Muses (early 2003), they were a band that were just beginning to find their way in attaching lyrics to music – only one of their songs really struck me as being ‘very good indeed’.

Their second album The Power Out, released last year, is now on the iTunes Music Store. As is their brand new single. It’s very Stereolab, but with more guitars and is rather nice.

In my addled stupor on Sunday I couldn’t remember when Giorgio Ponticelli’s 7 hour trance set was going to play on Digitally Imported. I’ve now found this, which indicates it’s on 29 April from 5pm BST and will have 25 DJs each playing 3 track minimixes and all mixed together by Giorgio. That’s 75 tracks.

The ‘Behind the scenes’ section on the above link is quite interesting. Looking forward to it.
