Guest Mix from Alex Wilson (Public Information)

On the Feb 10th show, Alex Wilson joined me for a special guest mix.  Alex runs the Public Information label out of London with Lionel Skerratt.  On the show he played music from the label as well as records from his personal collection. 
The Public Information label is “A survey of electronics… noise… psych… industrial… house… dub… wyrd-pop… library… techno… art… design from the last seven decades… 1950- Tomorrow.” 
If you missed the show it’s definitely worth a listen. From soul music to sounds of the Estonian countryside to library and weird electronic music… this show pretty much has it covered!  The podcast can been found in the Alien Jams archives of the NTS site (ntslive.co.uk). Alex kindly sent over the tracklist from the show, which I have posted here.
