Hi Guys

I hope life is treating you all well,

Firstly I would like to thank you for all the great feedback for the 1st show it's obviously a fair bit of work putting it together and I'm producing it 100% myself so your comments are extremely valued. 

So here is the second episode of 'Lowering the Tone', this time I roped in Mr Dylan Rhymes for a chat and who as ever is life & soul of the party. 

As always your comments are appreciated so don't be shy, if you enjoy the show any help with promoting/spreading the word by simply sharing the link or tweeting about it would be really helpful as I do need help getting this off the ground.

If you want a track listing to the show please go to www.loweringthetone.london and 'subscribe' to the mailing list & you will receive a newsletter with full details of the show.

All the best 

Mark (Meat Katie)

Meat Katie 'Lowering The Tone' Episode 3 (With Elite Force Interview)

Hi Folks

Sorry for the delay in getting this episode out, I self produce the show and do everything on my own so it takes a while to put all the elements in place, it's been really slow going over the Xmas period but I'm there now and i'm proud to give you Episode 4 of Lowering The Tone featuring a candid interview with an old friend of mine Lee Coombs we get a little insight into his fascination with Acid House, 303's & moog synthesizer's  amongst other things.

As always any feedback is great and please continue with the help with the online promo, sharing those links and re-tweeting etc.. , 


All the best


Mark

Meat Katie - 'Lowering The Tone' - Episode 4  (with Lee Coombs Interview)

Meat Katie 'Lowering The Tone’ Podcast - Episode 8 
Featuring an Interview with 
Steve Young (Hedflux)

Aloha my friends

I hope all is well

I’m pleased to give you Episode 8 of the Lowering The Tone Podcast, as always expect a broad mix of electronic music & chat.


This time round I had the pleasure of talking with Steve Young AKA Hedflux about his journey into music & the up’s and downs of life in general, it's a long conversation which I decided not to edit down Iv'e just extended the show to fit it all in! 
Steve is an interesting and intelligent character that I am sure you will warm to.

You can help!
I try hard to make these shows honest & representative of my personality and my tastes, I hope by now that is coming through in each show & I genuinely love doing this, but I’m not the greatest at online promotion, in fact I become a bit self conscious about ‘over doing it’ (no one wants to be accused of Spamming), so if you can lend a hand by sharing the link via your social media platforms it would be a massive boost to the awareness…. and I won’t have to look like a dick that just talks about the same thing all the time ;-)

Alternatively if you download any music from my Bandcamp (meatkatie.bandcamp.com) page and donate any money that will add with finical assistance which is also needed for the podcast to grow. (a 2hr + show eats bandwidth like you wouldn’t believe).

I will be mailing the track listing out next week and in case you are not aware, you need to subscribe at www.meatkatie.com, or you will be automatically added to the list if you download anything on my Bandcamp (meatkatie.bandcamp.com)

So I think thats about it… enjoy the show and Im keen to hear your comments via Soundcloud or Facebook

Mark (Meat Katie)

Hi Guys,

Welcome to Episode 16 of Lowering The Tone, this time round I have the legendary Evil Nine in conversation, I popped down to Brighton on a windy Sunday afternoon, very hungover, and caught up with Tom & Pat in Tom’s kitchen, we discussed everything from writing such classic tracks as ‘Crooked’ & ‘Restless’, to performing live at festivals, the state of modern folk music, and doing interviews while on edibles.

As always I will attempt to take you on sonic ride through the underground of electronic music & beyond.

Any support you can lend to the show will be greatly appreciated, sharing the link, rating & reviewing on iTunes or positive comments on Soundcloud, Twitter & Facebook are just a few ways you can get involved - these can make a big difference, if you're digging the shows then make other people aware who you think have similar taste to you. … it’s good to share!

If you want a track listing to the show, head over to www.loweringthetone.london and subscribe and we will mail you one.

Meat Katie -  Lowering The Tone - Episode 16 (with Evil 9 interview)

Elite Force aka Simon Shackleton has had an extensive career spanning over 20 years. Starting off as a musician and being a band member with Thom Yorke before moving onto his own outfit called Lunatic Calm which had quite a successful career and a few number one tunes including "Rollercoaster". Simon has also worked with a bunch of top acts, remixed, wrote movie soundtracks, toured and was one to watch in the Nuskool Breaks scene. He then developed the Tech Funk genre in the late 2000's included with such artists as Meat Katie and Dylan Rhymes to name a few. Nowadays Simon plays marathon 6 hour LIVE sets in his "One Series" and has moved into the world of professional photography.

Elite Force - Beatfactor Promo Mix December 2004

Im pleased to give you Episode 18 of the Lowering The Tone podcast. 

This time round I had the pleasure to sit down with Ant Wilson Aka 'Chicago Loop' and have an in-depth chat about starting your career again from scratch, life after the London Acid Techno scene and naming himself after a ring road in America.

As I have mentioned before these are not so much of an interview more of just a laid back conversation that veers off in all directions, thats is the charm though IMO, listening back to this one I think it will appeal to DJ’s who wish (and do) travel because Ant is a well seasoned DJ who has some great stories of his on the road experiences around the globe, I found his story petty inspiring I hope you do to.

As you should expect by now I explore many genres mix wise but keeping it Techy based. As promised in the show I will bring back the ‘Deeper Selection’ next episode.

So if you enjoy the show could I please ask you to share the link, Re-tweet, Re-post, Like, Comment, Rate & Review  … (you get the idea :-) 

I hope you like it, talk soon

Mark (Meat Katie)

Meat Katie ‘Lowering The Tone’ Episode 22
(Interview with Dom Kane) 

Aloha my friends 

I’m pleased to say Episode 22 of Lowering The Tone Podcast is finally ready and as always will be exclusive to our Patron’s at https://www.patreon.com/loweringthetone, for two weeks (for just $1 which includes instant access to the track listing). 

Then on 2nd December, it will be free via: iTunes, Soundcloud, Mixcloud & Podbean. 

The $1 really helps us keep the show afloat and most importantly- advert free... so we really appreciate the help. 

This episode I had chance to catch up with Dom Kane who is simply a world class engineer DJ/Producer Label manager, he records for the excellent Whartone Records & Mau5trap, he also runs his own production based company Kane Audio, he is a real interesting character and I enjoyed chatting with him.

With regards to the music I kept things pretty upbeat & fluid this show leaving towards the different shades of Techno, the deeper selection will return next episode though I promise.

I hope you enjoy, if you do please please share the link with anyone who you might think will like it.

Take care

Mark (Meat Katie)
