In anticipation of a scorching summer ahead here’s Astroboy’s latest mix for your listening pleasure. It features sunshine drenched beats from the four corners of the globe.

Don’t forget about Astroboy’s Departure Lounge night on Saturday 24 April at The Caves in Edinburgh featuring Bass Clef, Hypnotic Brass Ensemble and SoulJazz Orchestra either, especially if you’re digging the sound of this latest mix from him. We’ll see you on the dancefloor.

Here’s what DJ Astroboy himself had to say about the World Gone Crazy mixtape…

“Perhaps an unwise attempt to cram as many of the global styles of music I am feeling just now into one mega-mix.

We kick off with some trippy Arabesque, moving quickly through Trenchtown and over to Argentina where we linger with the electronic cumbia of ZZK Records. More Latino dancehall follows, then a quick trip to the Balkan bassment before some Notting Hill skank beckons. Bit of classic hip-hop and funk for the old-timers before a mini mashup of afro-latin-ragga breaks that leads into Zomby’s monster Tarantula, heralding deeper territory, but not before a detour into some very fresh tropical bass. We wind things up with a bit of uk funky style and futuristic garage, finishing with the title track. Enjoy!”

And here’s some more dates you can catch Astroboy on over the coming months.

Included here are his sets at the forthcoming Kelburn Viewpoint Sessions and the Kelburn Garden Party festival itself in July.

Matthew Sweeney and Orbit are back once again bringing you the best new music around including offerings from the likes of Pablo, Fool’s Gold and The Maccabees. This week’s episode is named after Jupiter’s second largest moon, Callisto.

In Greek mythology Callisto was a beautiful nymph of Artemis and like all other followers of Artemis had taken a vow of celibacy. As with many exquisite ladies of the time, Zeus was infatuated with her. Unable to deal with his love in a normal way, Zeus lured her into a false sense of security by disguising himself as Artemis, then raped her.

Luring you into a false sense of security this week with got a plethora of banging new tunes. Whether it be the sublime hip hop of Pablo or the indie rap crossover of The Maccabies and Roots Manuva you’ll find something to entice you into our Orbit.

1. Original Chappa – High Grade – Unsigned
2. Redlight – Kid Soldiers – Red Lobster
3. Erland and The Carnival – Trouble In Mind – Full Time Hobby

7. Peter Digital Orchestra – Born in 1980 – Eklektik Records
8. Hudson Mohawke – ZOo00OOm – Warp
9. Fool’s Gold – Surprise Hotel (Mad Decent Toadz Remix) – IAMSOUND

A relatively freaky tricky treaty for you with this installment. The fourth and by far the strangest mix to date. As ever, the most pleasing old and new music heard in recent weeks feature; frequently with a relatively ugly undercurrent of terror-stricken torment.

In keeping with the oft-overlooked notion of good old fashioned fun and also timed to coincide with the scariest event on the yearly calendar, here’s my Halloween special mix.

We kick off with NY’s No Wave electronic pioneers, Suicide‘s ghostly tune from their 1977 eponymous debut, devils come courtesy of Joakim and Scratch Perry , Dogs of War provide the pirates, zombies are more Fela Kuti‘s bag and  Sexual Harrassment need a freak. Some ridiculous hip-hop halloween edit of Morrissey (with whom the responsibility for this lies I have no idea), Capracara, Supermax, Ariel Pink and John Cooper Clarke are all in town this week too.

Spooking hell! Time to get off your monkey nut.

Tracklist

1. Suicide – Ghost Rider
2. Mogwai – Kids Will Be Skeletons
3. Dan Deacon – Padding Ghost
4. Joakim – Devil With No Tail
5. Scars – Horrorshow
6. Morrissey – Nonsense Halloween edit
7. Mari Boine vs Mungolian Jet Set – It Ain’t Necessarily Evil
8. Dogs of War – Love Pirate
9. Fela Kuti and Africa 7 – Zombie
10. Supermax – Spooky
11. Capracara – King of the Witches
12. Sexual Harrassment – I Need A Freak
13. Lee Scratch Perry – Disco Devil
14. Peter Tosh – Dracula (Vampire version)
15. John Cooper Clarke – I Married A Monster From Outer Space
16. Ariel Pink’s Haunted Graffiti – Among Dreams
17. Mark Fry – The Witch

This is the second of two shows bringing you the best live music recorded at the Kelburn Garden Party. This show concentrates on the Sunday and features an interview and music from The Aliens and music from Bombskare, Belleruche, Asthmatic Astronaut, Swimmer One, Samba ya Bamba and FOUND.

Located in Largs on the West coast of Scotland, the 800 year old Kelburn Castle provided a unique setting for The Garden Party; a boutique music festival with a twist. Back in 2006, Brazilian graffiti artists, as part of the pan-continental art-clash “Graffiti Project”, flew over from Sao Paulo to hand-paint the walls of the castle, creating a visually stunning spectacle and an extraordinary festival backdrop.

The free-spirited ethos of The Garden Party aimed to attract musically-aware, fun-loving festival-goers, with a passion for new, inspiring music and successfully created this relaxed and intimate atmosphere.

Side-stepping traditional festival line ups, The Garden Party took place on June 20th and 21st and had a strong focus on hand-picked local talent with a wide-spectrum of international underground artists, quite happily uniting gypsy folk and samba with electronica and techno.

With The MOBOs being held in Glasgow this year, Jim explores some of the Urban music emanating from Scotland right now.

In the latest episode of Jim Gellatly’s NEW MUSIC, the BBC Radio Scotland presenter puts his usual indie rock sounds to one side. From comedy hip hop to R&B, reggae and electro he shows the diversity of the Scottish scene, as well as posing the question “what exactly is music of black origin?”
