Utility Fog

Shannon O’Neill & Renae Mason filled in on this show, while I was in Chicago. They’d played a typically eclectic selection, very suited to Utility Fogs, and managed to drop in there a couple of people that I saw live on my travels, and a couple of releases I picked up while away as well.

Tonight’s my last Utility Fog for three weeks, as I jaunt across the world to the locals of San Francisco, New York, Montreal and Chicago (woo hoo!) But fear not, for you will be safe in the hands of:
Sunday 15th - Kit Brash, playing his unique mix of obscure Aussie artists remixed, mashups, dubstep, grime, hip-hop, etc.
Sunday 22nd - Celine Maslard, familiar from quite a few Allnighters after Utility Fog, no doubt playing some of her selections of Asian electronica and post-rock and much more.
Sunday 29th - Shannon O’Neill & Renae Mason, veterans like Kit of UFog fill-ins, with their usual sterling selection of tunes ranging from plunderphonics to post-rock, breakcore, sound-art, electronica - you name it. Shannon’s been doing experimental radio in Sydney since Wake Up And Listen started in the early ’90s at least.
