UPTOWN EXPRESS – EPISODE 4: Quattro Stallioni | Équipe Ulysses in the mix on NTS Radio, fourth time lucky. A little too much pre-match meat consumption / during match sugar-y drink consumption create a difficult metabolic environment for our hosts to try (and ultimately fail) to overcome. You could can almost hear the sugar levels dropping in there. Still the music selection is as strong as ever (possibly stronger) and for the next show the Equipe Ulysses’ team of nutritionists and sports psychologists will be on hand to keep us game focussed.

UPTOWN EXPRESS EPISODE 3: Oh My Gauche | Équipe Ulysses in the mix on NTS Radio, three for three. It is *honestly* starting to come together a little bit. The selection is a little bit more eclectic this time, the sort of mixing and matching of styles which remind me of Saturday sessions with the Illa, where we’d always manage to end up 3 or 4 drinks ahead of the crowd. Professional. Also in the show: Beer and cake, the ultimate antidote. Where is Friend? Googling ‘Prince Climax’. Production Advice for Flying Lotus. Download here | 17 5 11 | Free | View In iTunes |
