As there appears to be no show this week, I want to wish Happy New Year to the guys at Lower End Spasm, who have just posted this gift to us all, Essentials and Oneman downloads.
Well anyway I need to see what is on tomorrow night, so happy new year and catch you all in 2009.
And if you need more tuneage to prepare you for the nights festivities well Dazed have a treat courtesy of Zomby, which currently has me struggling to remain seated, thank you Zomby.
Oh yeah just been reminded I never put the link up for L-Vis 1990 and Bok Bok's Night Slugs Mix over at Fact, so here you go.
Face Saved.

Moving Forward
I'm currently riding the East Coast mainline home from London. Knowing that when I get in I have to assemble this weeks show. I'm currently listening to L Vis 1990 n Bok Bok in the mix for fact, which you should certainly check out. (I'll link to it when I have a computer in front of me.)
Anyway on to the point of this post, who thinks this site needs a change, a new lick of paint? I'm thinking that things are going to get busy with some refurbishment. I'm not fully certain of what will be done, so if you have any suggestions you know where I'm at.

beats to warm you in the freezer
So it is officially weather to wear scarves, or better still to sit inside and listen to beats, if you can't be bothered getting out on your bike or something.
Anyway here is a tip off this weeks show (Which was meant to be last weeks show, until issues arose) features beats by Mike Slott, L Vis 1990, Rustie, Joker, Bossman, Lewi White, Diplo, and many more. So go ahead and check it out on Tuesday night, 10 pm til Midnight on FuturebeatRadio.
Anyway I'm going to go back to listening to the latest album on Skull Disco, Soundboy's Gravestone gets Desecrated by Vandals, which I have to say is immense and deep, just as you'd expect it. I'm sure next weeks show will include a cut from it.

Riding straight into a head wind
Well this weeks show is being uploaded to the server as we speak, ready for tomorrow night 10pm til Midnight. Expect some Buraka Som Sistema, Deadbeat, Joker, Mike Slott, Sunship, Drop the Lime, The Bug, Flying Lotus and much more. All energised by a bike ride where my face was stung by hail as I rode straight into the wind, great fun, I was grinning through my grimace.
I might even get this weeks tracklist up. In the meantime I'm going to enjoy this weeks Between the Ears. Which is so far, so intriguing.

The State of Play
So what is the deal with Forward Motion? I'm often wondering that aloud to myself these days, I've always tried to keep the show upfront and fresh, and to try and make the show as far from repeatitive as possible, at the moment though I'm questioning the direction in which the show is heading.
The music policy has recently been lets just say chaotic, nothing wrong with that, chaos is a wonderful thing, and maybe chaotic is not the right word after all it carries negative connotations to many. What I think I'm trying to get at is that the music policy has been very loose, and I haven't been as discplined as I would like. One of the concerns I have had with the show, one that I had back in March when we found ourselves on Future Beat, was that the music I was listening to seemed to suit being mixed rather than just put into the put it on and play it format I favour, I'm no DJ and I can't mix, I've been advised to learn by some, but by those who know how bad my rhythm can be I haven't pursued, well not since I was 18 and a very patient friend tried educating me on her 1's and 2's.
Anyway I'm just trying to work out what I'm doing with the show, I feel that playing some of the music I'm loving now is doing it no favours, especially with the ease of access to great mixes and radio, if you haven't already check out Bok Bok on Sub Fm (Sats 17:00 - 19:00 fortnightly). Where as at the other end of the scale the likes of MAH have access to fresh dubplates, and make sure that each weeks show sounds fresh. So what to do with Forward Motion? I have some ideas, I'm just trying to work them out. Fear not those who do listen I won't be hanging up the headphones and mic. Also we do now have a Forward Motion group on Facebook, now thats advancement.
