We have, on last week's show and the week before it played tracks downloaded from myspace with no discernible loss of quality - Sharon Jones and the Dap-Kings and Panda Eyes. We have also had to say no to tracks because of the compression. If you don't want us to play music from your myspace page then send us a CD. Simple.

Yeah... I'm wishing I never mentioned Myspace now. Just send me cds or e-mail tracks but point me towards myspace if you want me to hear your tunes, and if worst comes to worst we can play the myspace track on air.

Jan, because there was a two week difference between interviewing MC and then putting the interview on air the CD got misplaced - all my fault. I have found it though.

So, if this sort of loveable incompetence warms you to the North East of Scotland's greatest new radio show do get in touch.

Keep it up, Andy. There are few shows willing to showcase local music and actually attend the shows and interview them.

If a band has no problem with you using the myspace tracks then I don't see where there is a problem at all. I've downloaded tracks from myspace, put them on my ipod, and been impressed with the quality.

It'll be interesting to see how many bands actually bother their arses to provide a CD for the show.

Just finished our first demo and will make sure I pop one up to you Andy.

Our myspace page if you want a listen is MySpace.com - Hidden Leaves - Aberdeen, UK - Alternative / Rock / Experimental - www.myspace.com/hiddenleavesuk

A couple of downloadable tracks on here but will drop off CD as Sunlight is not downloadable.

We've got a few tracks on our myspace if you want , we've got a cd of other stuff but it might be easier if I just give you the myspace. MySpace.com - The Psychedelic Circus - aberdeenshire, UK - Psychedelic / Blues / Other - www.myspace.com/thepsychedeliccircus

Right now the tracks are downloadable off of myspace, but do you want us to email them to you or would you take it off the myspace?
