For the 2009 carnival season I’ve teamed up with 3canal to produce a series of down and dirty (dutty?) podcasts called cut+clear carnival. We’re keeping it deliberately simple and free-flowing: the plan is for us to meet on Mondays, riff for 15 or so minutes on things carnival-related, preferably with a guest, then have the show edited and uploaded by Tuesday.
In this pilot episode Roger Roberts and Wendell Manwarren of 3canal shoot the breeze with MPC wizard Keshav Chandradath Singh of the cut+clear crew and Canboulay.
See you at the launch of 3canal’s 2009 release, Joy+Fire, on Sunday 19 January at 6pm at the Queen’s Hall Courtyard, Port of Spain, Trinidad!

Great idea- it really transmits the build-up and growing excitement. Brings warmth to a chilly South Yorkshire and helps us with the “big countdown”. Love, best wishes to all and see you soon!
FAN…TAS…TIC!!!!!
I prefer calling them the “down and dutty” series. Can’t wait to give them a listen. By the way, my reCaptcha is “confine dem” – do you have a special Caribbean captcha plugin?
Thanks for the kind words, everyone!
Oso, my captcha is not only Caribbean, but equipped with a sensor that detects the presence of wild animals. Like bears, for example. But you should be thankful it wasn’t “skin dem”.
