Every week Signal Committee present an Eclectic Picks playlist. All tracks are selected from the full inbox of 200 tracks that are submitted each week to Fresh On The Net.
WHAT DO WE LOOK FOR?
Our playlists are orientated to the alternative music fan. Lyrics are not essential, abstract ideas are embraced and the fusing of different genres is encouraged. If you used to write band names on your pencil case at school, you’ll probably like our playlists.
ALL APOLOGIES
First of all an apology. All in all is all we are. This batch of Eclectic Picks should have been posted last week but due to a logistical error blah blah. Anyway, as they said when the Titanic arrived in Ghostbusters II, better late than never…
INTRODUCING DIRTY FREUD
Anyway, Dirty Freud returns for another blast as guest curator for the Eclectic Picks and, as always, when he picks tracks he likes to #keepitdirty.
