How did we get to April all of a sudden?

So, as promised way back in December, spring has sprung and with it the first podcast of the year and the first one under the Schizophonica Sessions banner.

This time last year, I had a playlist of about 15-20 tracks, some of which were a bit meh, but a couple were absolutely brilliant. This year, great tunes are much more evident, so it was a more difficult job breaking down almost 50 to a much more manageable 25 for your aural pleasure. There have also been a raft of great albums released so far this year and I'll try and get round to compiling that list by the end of the month. They say that recession leads to great art and this year certainly seems to be fruitful so far.

So, the podcast can be downloaded from here (Right Click, save as) or use the subscribe buttons at the top of the page and the tracklist is as follows. All of these tracks can either be bought at all the usual suspects (7Digital is my own particular favourite) or they are free downloads from artists websites. I have linked to the artist's website or Myspace so you can find out a bit more about them.

I hope you enjoy listening as much as I have enjoyed compiling the list and your comments are always welcome.
