The Noodle Hotpot

As 2015 draws to a close its time to take a look back over the past 12 months at some of the records that have been big on the fortnightly Noodle Hotpot shows and celebrate the great and the good. It's been a cracking year all-round on the new music front but 2015 seemed a little different with a whole host of old long lost rarities being given a new lease of life via some lovingly reissued packages. From Athens of the North digging deep and releasing blinding 45 after 45 to Hotpot firm favourites BBE and Ubiquity Records giving us some awesome oldies, we really were spoilt this year. The annual 3 hour show ended up clocking in at around 3.5 hours due to the sheer amount of music I wanted to fit in with still many records left out due to time restraints so I must appologise for any glaring omissions (special shout to Seven Davis Jr and Andrés!). Anyway, I hope you enjoy the show Big love x Tracklisting 01. Vakuka - 19 hours prior to Arcturus [Leleka LP] 02. Bambi Davidson - Brunswick [Claremont 56 12”] 03.
