Yep. We’re back on the air again tonight with another 4 hours of top-quality audio wandering. It’s time for Allsorts. Sets tonight will include music from Blunt Resident Agent M, along with an extended live recording from the family Blunt’s recent outing to Bar Absolute, where residents Doug and Marcus Hurley were joined by blunt-buddy DJ Morocco for a night of funk, breakbeat, hip hop beats, and pretty much anything else they fancied.

If you made it down, it’s a chance to listen again. If you didn’t, it’s a chance for you to hear what you missed, so you know better for next time! Catch all of tonights music live from 8pm UK time via our radio page.

On tonight’s live radio show, the family Blunt will be cooking another wholesome portion of Electric Noodles. A 4-hour menu of downtempo, ambient, and electronic beats will be dished up piping hot by Blunt Residents Doug and Marcus Hurley. Hold the Soy sauce…

If you weren’t able to make it down to Bar Absolute in Hitchin last Friday, fear not! We got the while night in the can and it will be revisited in tonight’s Soulfood show.

Tune in from 8pm to catch sets from Morroco, Marcus Hurley and myself. Spanning hip hop, nu-jazz, funk, breaks, electro and DnB, it was a top night of tunes. Don’t miss out a second time!

It’s a bit late, but better than not at all. Here’s the tracklist for parts two and three of last Wednesday’s Groundbeat session, liver from Bar Absolute.

After a few initial teething problems we got things ironed out and some smooth jazz influenced tunes were spun. This was the first of what could be many at this stylish new venue, so keep your eyes peeled for more dates. The download has been available since last Thursday, and will still be on our Radio page until this Thursday. So if you haven’t grabbed it yet, you’ve only got a couple of days left to do so.

I think we all agree a change is good once in a while. Even if it’s just your socks…Foot hygiene issues aside, it’s healthy to change the norm now and again.

The rambling point of this post (and rather rubbish sock reference), is to let you weblanders know that we’re taking transmission of tonight’s live radio show out of the smoky confines of Blunt HQ, and into Bar Absolute (in Hitchin, Hertfordshire) for the evenings proceedings. It’s fair to say that Bar Absolute has comfier seats and a better range of spirits than we currently have here at Blunt HQ, and they probably empty their ashtrays more often, so we’re glad they’re letting us come over for the night! (“thank you”…)

As advertised, tonight’s show will be another infamous “Groundbeat” session. Expect lots of chilled-out, jazz-influenced beats from across the genres, live from 8pm UK time. DJs will include Blunt residents, and Adam Williams, who returns to the fold once more as tonight’s guest DJ.

If you’re in the area, feel free to pop down to Bar Absolute to say hello, treat yourself to a Campari and Lucozade, and kick back to some live sounds from the family Blunt, from 8pm through until midnight.

If you’re not lucky enough to be nearby, then you can of course listen live to the whole 4 hour session via our radio page from 8pm tonight. You can do this in the comfort of your own home, without even having to change your socks. (“Socks!!! See?? I knew I’d get there in the end! Erm….I’m off for a siesta now.”)

It’s time once more for Blunted space cadets Doug and Marcus Hurley to pull out their finest drum and bass and breakbeat recordings, and lead you towards another musically Uncharted Territory, on tonight’s live radio show.

Best make the marmalade sandwiches, this little journey could take a while. (It’ll take 4 hours in fact…from 8pm UK time until midnight.)

This week’s radio is ready for download. It’s a playback show of live recordings by Marcus, Morroco and myself from Bar Absolute, Hitchin, at the end of last month.

The tracklisting is vast and varied, so keep checking back here for updates. The whole sha-bang can be grabbed from our Radio page for the next week.

Those of you in the Hitchin area can catch Blunt Beats resident DJs touching down at Bar Absolute this Friday. Marcus G Hurley and Doug, with special guest Morroco, will be smashing it with funk, breaks and hip hop to kick up a storm.

If you came along to Rhythms Of The World this summer you’ll most probably have caught Morroco rocking the festival crowd with solid block-party beats, so expect more of the same this weekend. With Marcus and myself sharing the bill it’s gonna be a jam!

You’ll find Bar Absolute, billed as “Hitchin’s only true venue for quality dance music”, in Sun Street with a very slick interior and a friendly atmosphere. A well stocked bar and crystal clear sound system also make Bar Ab one of the best spots in town.

This night is not to be missed, so arrive early as this bar gets packed. Blunt Beats at Bar Absolute, Sun St, Hitchin, SG5 1AH. 9pm – 1am (poss 2am). Entry is free so everyone’s on the guest list!

Well well….this weeks live radio show sees us sittin’ on the stoop with the Olde English and the Phillies as we take in yet another Soul Food Session. Blunt Residents Doug and Marcus Hurley will be taking you through the crates, pulling out lots of smoked-out hip-hop, soul, and funk flavours.

And, for you lucky listeners, we’ve got something a little bit special lined up… We’ll be playing you the on-point “Smokers Lounge” mix from Altanta-based DJ Osmose. Take our word it, you won’t be disappointed, and we’ll have more from our special guest Osmose coming up in future shows very soon.

Nice….now pass me that chicken wing, fool, and roll the damn dice!!

Metaphorically speaking, of course (as much of a caveman as I am, the idea of chicken foetus can piss off!).

In truth, I’m talking about the return of our Best Of British show on tonight’s live radio broadcast.

British music from across the years and the genres, brought to you by the apple-an’-pear climbing, jellied eel-munching resident wideboys The Erbalist and Marcus Hurley, along with with an “almost British” archive set from “almost British” Doug, our resident Scottish import.

Cor blimey, it beats waiting for a Routemaster in the rain, me ole china! These tunes will be as tasty as roast dinner with Angel Delight to follow!!
