Flamingo #38 (23/02/22)
Flamingo is my monthly radio show on Lisbon’s Rádio Quântica, broadcasting every fourth Wednesday from 16h–18h GMT. You can find archives of previous shows on Mixcloud and Soundcloud.
I recorded this month’s show in advance, truth be told in a bit of a hurry, because I was going to be away in the UK in the week beforehand and flying back around the time it would air. But I’m glad to say I’ve got the art of the show down a bit better than a year or two ago, and I’m learning new tricks all the time. So hopefully what came out is still a reasonably coherent, informative, and most of all enjoyable two hours.
There’s less new music this time round as I’ve been consolidating my existing collection and trying not to add to it too quickly. If I do that, I tend to not process the new additions properly and they end up falling by the wayside, something I hate to do with new music. But there are still enough new goodies to keep things fresh, especially a fabulous new remix coming from my friend Mário Valente and two recent releases on personal favourite label Basic Moves. I was happy to mix in some disco and italo with the house and techno, and also especially to include some old favourites that I’ve been reaching for at recent gigs - Isolée in particular.
Thank you to Liam, Teamy, Mário, Nikola, Michiel, Sam & Harry, and Luigi for sharing promos with me at various points.
