Posted by Stuart in Playlist.trackback
The Signal returns to Radio Magnetic! For the first edition of 2008, Stuart Flanagan catches up with
Charlotte Hatherley, former guitarist with Ash. Since leaving Ash, Charlotte has released her second solo album “The Deep Blue”, a beguiling and dazzling album which was recorded in Italy and features a wealth of influences from Kate Bush to Liz Phair, and Juliana Hatfield to David Bowie. Charlotte collaborated with XTC’s Andy Partridge on one track and in this interview discusses her feelings on leaving Ash, achieving her own style and some of her favourite records.
Also in this show is new music from Cat Power, Supergrass and Sons & Daughters, plus classics from Sandie Shaw and XTC.

So the first 2008 edition of The Signal is finally online! It’s been a long time coming, but the new show is packed with cool tunes and classic, as well a brand new interview with Charlotte Hatherley about her recent album The Deep Blue. Charlotte talks about the many influences on her work and collaborating with XTC legend Andy Partridge. That led us to including “This Is Pop” an XTC single Charlotte’s been covering in her live shows.
Plus how great is the new single from Sons & Daughters? The magic touch of Bernard Butler’s production gives it a really dirty dancefloor feel and already its one of the great singles of the year. Plus I play some Bob Dylan for the first time ever (prompted by Cat Power and The Big Lebowski!) and there’s dance-around-inyou-bedroom pop noise from Lucky Soul and The Go! Team. Tune in, listen, enjoy and feedback!

Thanks !
