DISCO NECTAR on BBC Radio One
I was asked to do a phone interview about the night for this week's BBC Introducing with Bethan Elfyn. I also had the privelege of choosing three tunes to play which were: To London by Falty DL (Ramp), Death Tunnel by Black Meteoric Star (DFA) and Specialise by The Hidden Persuader (Bass4Bots). To have a listen to the clip, click here. It's about an hour in to the show. Hope you enjoy the tracks. If you like what you hear, come to the Disco Nectar Birthday Bash on Saturday June 20th at Undertone Basement. See you there!
