Utility Fog

Sunday, 26th of December, 2004

Well! Tonight is Utility Fog's end-of-year wrap - as many of the top songs of 2004 as I can fit into one show. You may be interested to peek over at my blog, where I've posted an extremely long list of my favourite releases of 2004... There's no way in the world I could get through everything I wanted, and there'll be a bit of an overflow into next week...
Oh, and speaking of next week, tune in for a once-in-about-7-years Utility Fog - it happens to fall on my 31st birthday. So I'll be slightly loosening the genre constraints in order to bring you more gypsy, klezmer, indie-pop, punk, folk, dub, drum'n'bass, and anything else I feel like as well as your usual postfolkrocktronica and breakcore...
Starting tonight with a song on a boxing theme (well, it is "Boxing" Day) from 1984, followed by a track from 1994, and then we're into 2004!
