Fit & The Conniptions AKA Wayne Myers joins us live to talk about music, Linux, funny names and more. I had some technical problems getting him on the line but once I’d got some more coal in the furnace we were away. Enjoy! 00:00 – Talco – Tortuga – CC BY-ND Licensed – An Italian ska punk band I was tipped off about by Doug Whitfield from Music Manumit. Very cool tune I think and it’s from their album Combat Circus which you can find on Jamendo. I talked about the email Don Henry sent me concerning the classical music on the last show. I confused him with Don_S, sorry! You can get more great CC classical music here – http://www.gardnermuseum.org/music/listen/music_library 07:44 – Organet – Rim Och Reson – CC BY Licensed – From Stockholm, Sweden. I heard this quirky little track on CCHit’s Weekly Review show and had to share it. 13:15 – Fit & The Conniptions – Sweet Sister Starlight – CC BY-NC-SA Licensed – The first track from tonight’s guest. 17:56 – Fit & The Conniptions – Solemn Ground – CC BY-NC-SA Licensed 21:10 – Southside – Get Down – License Unknown – A fat slice of Nerdcore for the good folks at Scrub Club Records. I enjoyed this track a lot. Been saying this far ages but I’ll get that Scrub Club chat hooked up. 23:40 – Guest: Wayne Myers AKA Fit & The Conniptions joined me to talk about the new album Sweet Sister Starlight. 33:02 – Fit & The Conniptions – Nothing’s Any Fun Anymore – CC BY-NC-SA Licensed 52:00 – Fit & The Conniptions – Love Less & Live – CC BY-NC-SA Licensed 60:48 – Emerald Park – The Commonfield – CC BY-NC-SA – Swedish CC band who are really exceptional.
