So this is April's podcast, a few days early but there you go. This time I'm playing a set of songs from the Maximum Rocknroll compilation CD Public Safety (see www.maximumrocknroll.com), which I picked up a while ago. I thought it'd be fun to play some of my favourite songs from that as well as the usual mix of punk, garage, hardcore and folk. It's Sunday evening and I'm not feeling very wordy right now but I'm pretty stoked on how this episode came out. Let me know what you think. Woo. - Phil Chokeword
Track Listing 1. Circus Act - This Life Is Moving Too Fast (From the "This Is Your Destination" CD on the defunct Milliepeed Records - order copies through the Circus Act Myspace)
Public Safety:
2. Career Suicide - Do Some Harm (From the complication CD "Public Safety" on Maximum Rocknroll Records)
3. Pedestrians - Downfall (From the complication CD "Public Safety" on Maximum Rocknroll Records)
4. Sunday Morning Einsteins - Ek Led Med Livet (From the complication CD "Public Safety" on Maximum Rocknroll Records)
5. Smalltown - Come Around (From the complication CD "Public Safety" on Maximum Rocknroll Records)
6. The Modern Machines - Zero Kid (From the "Taco Blessing" CD on Recess Records)
7. The Ergs! - Jazz Is Like The New Coke (From the "Hindsight Is 20/20, My Friend" CD on Dirtnap Records)
8. The Gories - Drowning (From the "Outta Here" CD on Crypt Records)
9. The High Tension Wires - Hibernate (From the "Midnight Cashier" CD on Dirtnap Records)
10. Mark Gunnery - Diving Into The Wreak (From the "Government Is War" CD on Riot Folk)
Blah Blah Blah:
1. I still don’t know what I’m doing. Sorry. I even bought a book on podcasting. This was put together on my family's PC using Audacity and a USB record player, some over played CDs and 7"s and a cheap Internet microphone. Plus this MP3 is a lower bit rate than most in order to keep it at a manageable size. So if there’s a song on here that you dig and want to buy the record it came off, don't be put off if it sounds kinda rough or scuzzy. I can guarantee it'll sound better in the original format. I hope that makes sense!
2. I either asked the bands (Circus Act, Mark Gunnery) or the record label who put out the record I was playing (Recess, Maximum Rocknroll, Dirtnap, Crypt) if it was OK to podcast their songs and they were cool with it. I think one of the great things about the Internet is that its really easy to get in contact with people whose music you dig and I'd like to take time to thank them for allowing me to play their songs. Cheers!
3. It goes without saying that if you like this podcast, let your friends know about it! Please? Thank you. And get in touch too if you dig it/hate it/have any tips. tensongspodcast [at] googlemail [dot] com

Ten Songs Podcast #3
So I got a new microphone and a spit guard and everything got really painless. Wow. This is March's podcast and I hope you like it. I thought it might be kinda fun to do something different this time around and get a guest podcaster in to play some stuff that probably hadn't really registered on my musical radar. So I got xHannahx - of Zine For the Ladies/South Coast Vegan Cooking zine etc - in to play a bunch of UK folk punk stuff. Let me know what you think! - Phil Chokeword
Track Listing
1. Off With Their Heads - Theme Song (From the "Hospitals" MCD on Recess Records)
Guest Set:
2. PJ & Gabby - A Collection Of Thoughts (From the "Alarm Clocks Kill Dreams" CD on Cottage Records in the USA, Tiki Records and NC Records in Europe and available from them in the UK)
3. Kelly Kemp - Misanthrope (From the S/T CD on This Ones For The Crew Records)
4. El Morgan - Six Weeks (From the self released "6 Hours In Queens Park" CD)
5. Sam Russo - Your Parents Sins (From the self released EP "Darkened Doors")
6. Fucked Up - Colour Removal (From the "Epics In Minutes" CD on Deranged Records)
7. Uniform Choice - Screaming For Change (From the "Screaming For Change" CD on Wishing Well and available from Revhq)
8. School Jerks - Problems (From their self released demo tape) 9. Parade Of Enemies - Anti-youth Culture (From their self released demo tape)
10. Tranzmitors - Beating Up My Heart (From their S/T CD on Deranged Records)
The Usual Footnote Stuff:

Ten Songs Podcast #2
Ok, here’s February's podcast. Its a bit early, but there you go. I think I'm going to aim for compiling about one a month until it becomes a chore. You should subscribe! This time out, I had a real nightmare with the microphone which goes to show that you get what you pay for and I should spend less on beer and 7"s and more on getting some kind of decent set up. I had to record each bit about 50 times to get it usable. Oh well. Enjoy, and let me know what you think! - Phil Chokeword
Track Listing
1. The Bananas - There’s Blood On My Banana (From "Nautical Rock'n'Roll" CD on Plan-It-X Records)2. The Gramercy Riffs - You Couldn't Fucking Write It (From their Demo - see www.myspace.com/gramercyriffspunk)
3. The First Step - Peace (From "What We Know" CD on Rivalry Records)
4. Cloak/Dagger - Hollywood Hills (From "We Are..." CD on Jade Tree Records)
5. Whole In The Head - The Boy Who Told Lies (From the split 7" with War All The Time on Crimescene Records)
6. Gordon Gano's Army - Get Up & Get Out (From "50 Hours" 7" on AARBR Records)
7. Lemuria - Rough Draft (From "The First Collection" on Yo Yo Records)
8. Foundation - No Smoke (From "Homecoming" 7" on 1-2-3-4 Go! Records)
9. Abe Froman - Mosquito Season (From the self titled CD on Plan-It-X Records)
10. The Marked Men - Still Waiting (From "On The Outside" CD on Dirtnap Records)
Some Points I Should Probably Make:
1. I still don’t know what I’m doing. Sorry. This was put together on my family's PC using Audacity and a USB record player, some over played CDs and 7"s and a super cheap microphone (I got it for £4). Plus this MP3 is a lower bit rate than most in order to keep it at a manageable size. So if there’s a song on here that you dig and want to buy the record it came off, don't be put off if it sounds kinda rough or scuzzy. I can guarantee it'll sound better in the original format.

2.

I think one of the great things about the Internet is that its really easy to get in contact with people whose music you dig and I'd like to take time to thank them for allowing me to play their songs. Cheers!
3. I couldn't find an active link for Crimescene Records, except their myspace page - which says they're closed. Sorry.

Ten Songs Podcast #1
Welcome to the first Ten Songs Podcast. I hope you dig it. The rough idea is to play a bunch of punk, hardcore, garage and folk songs in a radio-style format in the hope that I can maybe expose listeners to great tunes that they haven't heard before. Please let me know what you think! - Phil Chokeword
Track Listing:
1. This Is My Fist! - Voice From Occupationland (from "I Don't Want To Startle You But They're Going To Kill Most Of Us" 7" on Left Off The Dial Records)
2. The Shitty Limits - Here Are The Limits (from "Here Are The Limits" 7" on Static Shock Records)
3. Career Suicide - Rearranged (from "Anthology Vol Two" CD on Deranged records)
4. The Regulations - No Rights (from "Electric Guitar" CD on Havoc Records)
5. Thee Vicars - Leavin' Here (from "...Let Us Play" 7" on Dire Records)
6. Paul Baribeau - Christmas Lights (from "Grand Ledge" CD on Plan-It-X Records)
7. Russ Substance - Sleep Forever (from the split CD with James Black entitled "As The Crow Flies" on Plan-It-X Records)
8. Robert Blake - Didn't We ( a Jim Page cover from the split CD with Erik Petersen on Art Of The Underground Records)
9. Bent Outta Shape - Villain (from the split 7" with Drunken Boat on Salinas Records)
10. Shang-A-Lang - Summertime (from the "Summertime" 7" released by Dirt Cult Records and Lets Pretend Records)
Somethings I should probably say:
1. I am pretty useless with computers. Sorry. This was put together on my family's PC using Audacity and a USB record player, some over played CDs and 7"s and a super cheap microphone (I got it for £4). Plus this MP3 is a lower bit rate than most in order to keep it at a manageable size. So if theres a song on here that you dig and want to buy the record it came off, don't be put off if it sounds kinda rough or scuzzy. I think I did an ok job for a first crack but I can guarantee it'll sound better in the original format. I hope that makes sense!
2. I either asked the bands (The Shitty Limits/Thee Vicars/Robert Blake/Regulations) or the record label who put out the record I was playing (Deranged/Left Off The Dial/Plan It X/Salinas/Dirt Cult) if it was ok to podcast their songs and they were cool with it. I think one of the great things about the Internet is that its really easy to get in contact with people whose music you dig and I'd like to take time to thank them for allowing me to play their songs.
