Filed under: Patent Pending
Hey from Sydney! I’m Bec Paton, a small, fierce girl, who is known to spin records from time to time. Rather than wasting resources by burning a bunch of cds, and rather than you wasting time ripping them because you prefer to listen on your puty or mp3 player, this site cuts that crap and you can get my mixes easily, (that is if these sounds are your sorta thing!)
So, enjoy! Here you will find an innovative mix of interesting sounds from electronica through to hip hop and indie. On my show, Patent Pending, I often do a short mix of 20-30minutes around a theme or as a soundtrack. Past mixes include ‘Soundtrack for Bagging it up in a Moon Buggy,’ ‘Rain Streams,’ ‘Move Me Movies,’ ‘Gosh, you Look Good in Velvet!’ and ‘Sizzling Shibuya.’ Other mixes on the site are from sets I’ve played and there’s also interviews with artists that I’ve done for radio.
These can be downloaded/streamed in isolation. It will be cool to see how this little collection evolves over time! Feel free to send in a mix challenge! (You never know, I might make something that absolutely delights you!) Feel free to share with other people who you think might dig this too. Also, feedback would be greatly appreciated, so I don’t exist in a vacuum!
Big ups to Nick for making the back end of this lil’ underground world - ’tis just what I wanted!

Comment by Sam h 09.02.06 @ 11:34 amtidy work, yet again, ms paton.
Your car chase session reminded me of that time when I almost considered the possibility of seriously thinking about another time when I nearly thought about organising myself enough to go and get my driver’s license one day.
Missing you like a drowning kitty in a bag misses light, air and life, your friend, xE

Comment by matt 02.05.07 @ 1:54 pmHow can I get your Patent Pending - 22/01/07 mix?
I created one of the songs up in there and would like to hear in this context…
Jim, go to the radio section and scroll down to the 22/01/07 post. You can podcast it, listen to it in the inbuilt player or download it. Hope that helps!
Which track was yours?

Now that Nick has explained to me what a “podcasting blog”, I’m excited! No more shitty low-fi streams.
