Replay Everything, Extra! #2

More Spreaker for you - and now my holidays are over and I'm back at work and won't have as much spare time, ( subtext - I won't bother you every few days with something new ) all this recent Spreaker business will calm right down, back to a weekly/fortnightly thing, but here's the last of the "on holidays" batch -----

the replay for the  2nd episode of "Everything Extra!" from today - which you can find directly on Spreaker here or use the player below


or just search Sideroom Everything, Extra if going via a mobile app

Here's the tracklist and links for today's show, from memory I don't think I made too many ridiculously incorrect announcements like I have on all of the other shows I've done recently...but you never know

ep1 "Little Badge Box"

Another Spreaker effort today - what this show was all about is I have a little box where I chuck badges for bands / labels when I get sent a badge with music I buy....so on today's show "live to air" a badge was picked out of the box and the song / band / label that goes with that badge gets played...simple enough I suppose

There's what the box looks like - and you can listen to the show either here or to the player below




Don't forget there's a Spreaker App for iOS and Android and if you're there just search for either Sideroom or Little Badge Box

Here's the badges that came out

I also mentioned having to get the Cloudberry one(s) from a special box I store my 3"cds in here's that box

Coming Soon - "The Little Badge Box"

I am still on annual summer holidays so got plenty of time on my hands....so dangerous, "armed & dangerous" !!

Being this prolific will end suddenly next Tues when I have to drag my sorry butt back into work but in the meantime, coming soon ( ie, later this week ) is yet another project entitled "The Little Badge Box", which will be another Spreaker effort and more rambling from me but more music of course :)

All will be revealed....

"Besides, B-Sides are Better" Ep 1 replay

Besides, B-sides Are Better episodes #1 - "B Sides that Start With B"

This show looks at B-sides of 12" & 7" singles, this first episode featuring song names that start with the letter B.

It was broadcast live on Spreaker on today & although I had set up a seperate "show" for this series for some as yet unknown reason Spreaker sent it out via my other "show" Everything Extra!, which was kind of annoying ( and threw me a bit ).

The show featured The Pastels, Holiday Crowd, Equal Local, The Windmills, Coach Station Reunion, Lush, The Triffids, The Gobs, Celestial, Fear Of Men, Manhattan Love Suicides, Jasmine Minks, Close Lobsters, Orange Juice, Rumeblefish, Even as We Speak among many others

Anyhow a replay is available -




or listen via here if  you so desire.....

correction to an announcement : 

Sea Lions are from the US ( not the UK ) and the label was Yay! not Maria ( that was one on the other bands on the label ) ( doh !! )

As I keep pointing out it's real "bedroom radio" - you have been warned :)

Everything, Extra #1

Everything, Extra! is a new venture for me - an offshoot of the Everything, Alright! blog

In a nutshell it's a new live broadcast via Spreaker - which expands on the kind of music featured on the blog - featuring artists and releases more in depth and  more like a radio show with announcements and so on ( Aussie accent and all ).

You can either listen live as it goes to air or to a recorded version whenever you like, and it works on mobile devices as well as a PC, so all good.

the direct URL for this particular show  is - http://www.spreaker.com/show/everything_extra

I will be doing other shows so the main link for my Spreaker channel is  -

http://www.spreaker.com/user/sideroom

It's pretty much "warts and all" radio ( in the end I'm no professional !! )

Everything, Extra! will be on an semi regular basis, not sure how often yet....Everything, Alright !! will of course continue as normal.

Ep 1 Everything, Extra! went live via Spreaker today ( full replay available below )

Track List & Details of where to buy tracks ( names correct here despite some dodgy announcements on the show, with massive apologies to The Arctic Flow for calling him The Arctic Circle at one point )

fact correction : the Ever "unreleased song" couldn't have been 1985 as I stated on the show, more like 1989 !!
