I was able to d/l from iTunes today, fwiw.
Yep, got this one, thanks for the heads up. Hoping the previous 4 will become available soon...
Hey check out this new singer Zander Bleck from NYC @ www.zanderbleck.com and his new music video for his debut single "Get Up" here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0DhcX_fCQz0&fmt=22
Awesome show! (Also, I was wondering if the "Blog Fresh" theme was actually a full length song by High Contrast? Cos it's a pretty catchy tune and I'd love to hear a full version.)
Hey :-) I really like the song "Last Thing You`ve Said". The melody and the mood. What do you think? :-)
Ange, the title of the High Contrast tune used on regular Blog Fresh episodes is called "Racing Green", and appears on the album "High Society" - label is (the superb) Hospital Records, hospitalrecords.com.
is there going to be a new one of these soon?!

My iTunes player is getting a bit tired of telling me that a Blog Fresh Radio show is either corrupted or isn't playable on iTunes...
