What have you got planned when the school bell rings on Friday? Microwave chicken tikka for one, endless repeats of Friends on E4 and a cheap bottle of pinot grigio? I don’t think so. I’ve got a far better idea: collar a couple of chums, launch yourself in the general direction of Old Street, sashay gently down City Road to The Eagle, get on the good foot and do the bad thing. Please feel free to drop in and loudly exclaim at the bar, “blimey, Charlie, bless my ears if this isn’t the phattest dope ever laid down on wax”.

:{UNPLANNED AFTERNOONS on DIESEL:U:MUSIC RADIO}:
Thursday 2nd October, 10-11am

Hot on the heels of :{Unplanned Afternoons}: on Bestival Radio, we’re back to stain the airwaves with an hour of Unplanned tunes on Diesel:U:Music Radio. And, if you can’t tune in live, the show’s repeated, plus there’s a cunning listen again feature:
Diesel:U:Music Radio Schedule
Unplanned Afternoons Show Profile

More to the point, I’m pantsplittingly excited to tell you that I’ll be discussing the finer points of chap hop with one of Great Britain’s foremost gentlemen rappers and general Slangoranutang, MC Elemental:
www.elementalmc.co.uk

If you’re not familiar with the fellow, reprimand yourself immediately and watch the video to his extraordinary single, ‘Cup Of Brown Joy’:
www.vimeo.com/794351
Over half a MILLION people have watched it on YouTube alone. Look, he’s in The Torygraph and everything, not that I usually condone such things:
‘Cup of Brown Joy tea rap becomes YouTube hit’
You can also bag yourself some free music from his MySpace page:
www.myspace.com/mcelemental
Splendid.

Elemental’s new album
GENTLEMEN’S CLUB: gentlemen of leisure
is out now and this is what he had to say on the matter:
“It’s full of well whisked whimsy, sumptuous beats, a liberal sprinkling of guest stars and layered with a think dollop of cuts and scratches. It would be awfully lovely of you to pop by to Rare Kind Records in Brighton, or via their website:
www.rarekind.co.uk/music
and buy it for £6.
The album will be available in iTunes stores very soon too.”
