I agree completely. Although I hesitate to say it because I don't want it to go to his head , and although he and I definitely have our differences on some songs, Nathan has honestly developed into one of the best Lindy DJs around, not just in Austin, and this set only shows it. His sets have been just as fun to dance to in person as you might expect from this set, Jesse. Keep it up, Nathan.JesseMiner wrote:Sounds like a pretty swinging set to me. Nathan, I thoroughly enjoyed your show and have gotten other compliments about it as well. * * * * Keep up the great work!

You'll hear strange covers of swing songs, unlikely bands doing swing songs, just plain silly songs, some popular WCS tunes and a whole lot more bizarre stuff. A few examples would be Arosmith doing "Big Ten Inch Record", Bjork performing with her father's jazz combo, Blossom Dearie's "Doop-Doo-De-Doop", Earth, Wind and Fire's "September" and tunes by The Spice Girls, Sublime, Guru, Jurassic 5 and more. There are even some entertaining Frankie Manning interview bits thrown into the mix.shortyjul wrote:So what happens on Freaky Fridays?
This is a format that has been around since the inception of Yehoodi Radio but that went away when I started to do "Producer's Picks" on Friday. We like to bring it back time to time as people have enjoyed it in the past.

Matt beat me to announcing his show....
February Thursday Guest DJ: Matthew Riddle (Australia)
Live and direct from Australia (okay, maybe not live, but direct) we proudly present Matthew Riddle spinning the tunes on Yehoodi radio's Guest DJ Thursdays for the month of February.
"Matt Riddle is a Lindy teacher and DJ from Melbourne, Australia. Probably better known as the organizer of the Melbourne Lindy Exchange, Matt has been DJing weekly in his home town for over 4 years, and has spun his stuff on his trusty iPod at a bunch of lindy events world wide."
We're thrilled to have some representation from "down under". Tune in to his show every Thursday on Yehoodi Radio
Enjoy!
Jesse

Finally listened to the show, I think it is excellent. A lot of variety.Zot wrote:Hi all,

Thanks a lot Nate! Reading your comment reminded me that it's tough to know what to put into a set like that. What was your experience like?
I was in two minds about variety, but I decided to try for a range that would maintain a bit of interest. I particularly wanted to put a few Australian tracks in there that I thought a majority of the listeners wouldn't have heard. But I also wanted to put together a set that was somehow indicative of the range of stuff I normally play. It all makes for a set that's very different from a typical dance set, but hopefully something that will interest someone sitting at their desk...
