The Circle – Mix by ISAN (Edition 29) 16 February 10

Brought to you by Arctic Circle Radio, the Circle is a new weekly podcast that takes you on a one-hour journey based on the most simple and significant of shapes. Every Circle is unique; formed from a guest curator’s musical landscape and they all share the same revolutionary quality: each one ends at the point where it began.

Edition 29 - Mix by ISAN: the mix seems to have themed itself around water, which is appropriate, and williams, which may not be.  It features a handful of unreleased ISAN tracks – the first and last are from a remix compilation which will be released on simon scott’s kesh label around october, “lop helston conceit” is specially composed for Arctic Circle and the Bubbly Blue and Green festival, and “device” is take from “glow in the dark safari set”, our new album due out in june on Morr Music.  Other than that, it’s just tunes we love, all of which are heartily recommended for listening on a windswept and deserted beach.
