I have to admit, after writing this post I was a little concerned that, due to my inclusion of the Thomas the Tank Engine track, people may assume that the free tracks will all be comedy/jokey type stuff…

Not so. As well as loads of original material (some of which is as good if not better than the stuff on his “proper” releases) there’s also remixes, covers and interpretations of artists as diverse as Kate Bush, Peter Bjorn & John and Interpol as well as loads of weird, experimental and early material. Plus some more silly stuff too, of course!

I honestly think you’d be hard-pushed to find a single artist anywhere who’s as generous with his back-catalogue and bandwidth as Datassette is.
