At T in the Park 2010, Radio Magnetic joined forces with The Skinny magazine to record and film a series of stripped back acoustic sessions with some of the best up-and-coming talent on show at this year’s festival.

Over the coming weeks you can watch the videos and hear the sessions in full here at Radio Magnetic and over at our friends, The Skinny’s website too.

Next in the series, formerly known as Paper Planes, we bring you Astral Planes. Three young men from Glasgow fronted by the understated charm of US-born singer, Jennifer Paley. The band blend the post-punk pop of 1980s Scottish acts like Aztec Camera and Orange Juice with Southern soul and country-blues flavours to wonderful effect.  Only three of the band took to the stage in our little kitchen in the media village after the full quartet had wowed the T Break fans earlier in the day. The fourth member had other things on his mind… Hope you enjoy the set.

Check out their set by clicking stream in the menu bar above or by clicking the player beneath that. And have a look at the video of them performing over at The Skinny website.

Keep an eye out for our sixth exclusive acoustic session next week. And have a listen to all Radio Magnetic and The Skinny Sessions at: radiomagnetic.com/titp

onemoretune 450Listen online, stream and download DJ mixes on Radio Magnetic. This show features Glasgow club night, One More Tune’s head-honcho, Matthew Craig.

Welcome to the first show from Matthew Craig, the DJ behind Glasgow’s One More Tune nights. Here’s what Matthew had to say about his first endeavour on Radio Magnetic. Enjoy the mix!

One More Tune began life as a party three years ago and now hosts nights at The Art School, Glasgow every second Saturday of the month. The Arty nights and this show (cheers dudes!) are both about finding gems throughout all genres. Watch out! We may play songs you hate or, worse, play tunes you love and mix them badly.

For us, repeating and codifying one sound isn’t enough, the real magic is bringing unlikely sources together to create a new sound, and to try hard to magnify the best bits from what we’ve heard in an attempt to provide one moment of clarity for someone out there in this urban chaos we love and call Glasgow.

music = hope

At T in the Park 2010, Radio Magnetic joined forces with The Skinny magazine to record and film a series of stripped back acoustic sessions with some of the best up-and-coming talent on show at this year’s festival.

Over the coming weeks you can watch the videos and hear the sessions in full here at Radio Magnetic and over at our friends, The Skinny’s website too.

Next up in the series, Glasgow based folk-noir outfit, Sparrow and the Workshop. Normally performing as a trio they took to our little tent in the media village as a two-piece and blew us away on the Saturday evening of the festival straight after they did the very same to the T Break audience. On the back of recent tours with Idlewild and the Brian Jonestown Massacre, this band are one of our favourite new additions to the Glasgow music scene of the last year. Keep an eye on them.

Check out their set by clicking stream in the menu bar above or by clicking the player beneath that. And have a look at the video of them performing over at The Skinny website.
