    'Blue Jam' soundtrack playlist

    Greetings!

    Honoured members, distinguished guests, and new joinees!!

    Having originally set up a playlist on my personal profile page featuring *virtually* all of the music heard over all three series of Blue Jam, I have since replaced it with a dedicated tag radio station:

    http://www.last.fm/tags/Music+from+Blue+Jam

    Weighing in at a tasty 250+ tracks, it's as close as I've managed to get to recreating the ambient, funky eclecticism of Blue Jam for you, without the comedy bits of course.

    While numerous songs featured in full in between the many sketches, others appeared only for the briefest of moments, by way of short samples in the DJ 'stings' in some instances, while elsewhere, intros or instrumental mid-sections were looped to act as a background counterpoint to the twisted mad world of the sketches. While some of the songs may not seem immediately apparent as 'original soundtrack', hearing them in full, I think, makes for a particularly intriguing and original mix.

    Do feel free to comment here on what you think, especially if you never actually heard the original series! Enjoy!

    There was a party going on at 13 Addison Gardens, West 12. I walked in to find a long hallway, which had been entirely decorated in Astroturf™ - it was like walking through a tubular field.

    ahh fanks

    I'll be listening to that all next week, great job. Great to see that many of them are full tracks as well. A Group playlist option would be fantastic, surprised that last.fm don't offer that.

    It's an eclectic mix, to be sure. There's a lot of ambient stuff, but there are plenty of catchy and quirky ones too - makes for a surprising listen! Blue Jam certainly introduced me to some fantastic new artists - if it does likewise for anybody else here then it's a job done well, in my book.

    As for there being many full tracks - ALL of the tracks with the 'play' button icons next to the song details will play in full while you are listening via the playlist - it works on a random shuffle process. All of the tracks have played in full for me thus far, anyway!

    As far as I can work out, the '30 second preview' only applies if you want to listen to a track 'in-page' on the respective artist's profile page. The only tracks in the playlist that won't play are the ones you can see in the list currently without (obviously) the 'play' button icon.

    I trust that all makes enough sense!

    Playlist Update

    I'm currently in the process of setting up a Tag Radio alternative, as I want to use my playlist for other things!

    Needless to say I will send a global alert to all group members once this task has been completed.

    Cheers for now,
    Ade

  • Hi ShadyAdy,

    I'm looking for the music track on Series 1 Episode 2, after the "pull yourself together" Doc joke approx 52 minutes in?

    I'm really happy you've taken the time to put this together - thanks. Chris Morris is a latter day polymath, his taste in music is almost as good as his comedy.

    Howdy, Bongo!

    Cheers for the props, dude. Pity that quite a lot of the tracks aren't yet available to hear on Last•FM, hopefully in time that may improve.

    I agree what you say about Morris' taste in music - his 1994 Radio 1 Music Shows also offered much evidence to that fact.

    As for the music you specified on Blue Jam Ep.1.2, I'll take a listen to it later and get back to you (if I know the answer of course!)

    In fact, now I think of it - and since I have a pretty reliable and comprehensive list now - I may well start a separate thread listing ALL the known music/artists as featured in all three series of Blue Jam, and in order of appearance - watch this space!

    did this list ever materialise? i am recently getting really into blue jam (i had the condensed best-of mix but just downloaded the actual full-length shows a few weeks ago) and would love to follow up on some of the music i've heard on the show!

    No, not yet, I had been meaning to get around to it, but I've been very busy just of late. I shall try and attend to it soon, honest! :)

    PS - Incidentally, has anyone else managed to listen to the Tag Radio station I set up?

    Would be good to know if it works okay. Cheers.

    Aye, I think LastFM have made a few changes since I set up that link, sorry!

    If I get chance to find the time needed to set up a new one, I will.
