SnC 237 – Wed 15 September 2010
Despite an interruption from the Apache helicopters of the Army Air Corps, we have a fine selection of music this week from the super-melodic to the downright raunchy. Autumn is here in Suffolk with showers and sunshine – but, hang on, that’s what we were supposed to get in spring! Dansi dans – For…

SnC 236 – Wed 08 September 2010
Quite a bit of music from California this week along with tracks from Ontario, Glasgow, Coventry and Toulouse in France. The sea wasn’t really this muddy yesterday but the movement in the water was awe-inspiring. The quick pint at The Lord Nelson wasn’t bad either! Artist of the month for August is announced in this…

SnC 235 – Wed 01 September 2010
Music right back to 1932 on Suffolk’n’Cool this week – along with lots of newer stuff! Having spent the past week in winter clothing here in Suffolk, the remains of the summer appear to have gathered themselves up to make a decent show of a few days. The hops growing on the barn seem to…

AOTM August 2010 – Lloyd’s Garage
Lloyd’s garage hail from Nappa, in the San Francisco Bay area of California. “A paradox of raw yet sophisticated garage-band rock; honed rock edge, sharp enough to take garage rock to a new level. Forget every other “garage” band you’ve ever heard.” There’s a fundamental integrity in these passionately delivered songs. The energy is, fortunately,…

SnC 234 – Wed 25 August 2010
A largely maritime theme on Suffolk’n’Cool this week. Not particularly by design, it just seemed to come together that way and hell, with music this interesting, why fight it? Southwold, where the beer comes from, looks very “easterly” from the sea. The Rolling Sea – Bagas Degol (Penzance, Cornwall, UK) The band is Rick Williams (clarinet), David…

SnC 233 – Wed 18 August 2010
As quirky a selection of tracks as you could possibly want with music predominantly from artists in California and New York but a couple of interesting tunes slipped in from France and Spain. Suffolk is getting damned noisy this week with harvest in full swing. It’s been a crazy fun week with friends visiting and…

SnC 232 – Wed 11 August 2010
Not one but two free downloads in this week’s Suffolk’n’Cool show, courtesy of our friends at IODA Promonet. A diverse selection of tines again and, I hope you’ll agree, a few little gems included. This weeks picture is a gain from Aldeburgh just over on the coast. It has to be one of the…

SnC 231 – Wed 04 August 2010
A hot summer mix on Suffolk’n’Cool this week with tracks from far and wide. There is also the Artist of the Month Feature and Sarah Morrison from IR New York popped in to say hello. It’s nice when folks do that! I was in Southwold (right) yesterday – all this and a brewery too! No…

AOTM July 2010 – Kapadnoms
Kapadnoms are based at Rosny sous Bois on the outskirts of Paris and have been playing since September 2005. Even in the original French, their notes tell you quite a bit. “Les kapadnoms developpent le concept de musique en patchwork liant l electro swing au hiphop en passant par des chansons a texte plus intimes…

SnC 230 – Wed 28 July 2010
Some particularly interesting tunes for you this week (yeah, I know, they always are!) from San Francisco, Brooklyn, Las Vegas, Niger, the UK, France and Nashville. Also news of some offers, a competition and an artist who could do with your feedback. In need of fresh air and photographs headed over to Aldeburgh this morning…

SnC 229 – Wed 21 July 2010
An energising canter around the globe for this week’s selection of fine new music. Tracks from Liverpool, two from Ontario, Ohio, Madrid, London and a couple from New York. Still no rain to speak of but the sky did briefly sweat on us this afternoon. I only mention it because as you’ll see, rain becomes…
