Guest Mix
This week's guest mix comes from Mike Textbeak with a two hour mix of Witch House, Ghost Drone and Haunted Disco. Don't ask me what any of that means, but it sounds fine!Video
A short clip of Dif Juz performing live in 1985. Filmed apparently by Simon Raymonde of Cocteau Twins. This is majestic!This is The Birthday Party with the video made for Nick the Stripper released as a single in Australia in 1981. Stills from the video were used for the sleeve of Release the Bats.
