After that he formed a new band who had brief britpop stardom with an appearance on The Big Breakfast and quite a following in Japan. Then at the turn of the century he formed a trip-hop outfit who managed to win what was dubbed during the Napster age as the first ever internet Oscars, beating Eminem to an mp3.com streaming number one single and subsequently being flown by helicopter to The Playboy Mansion to collect the Best Music Award. 🤷‍♂️😵</p><p>Martin and I have had some great experiences together, not just in music but in football, cricket and life too, so this mixtape is dedicated to you, Martin. And hey you’re never too old to join us in the Fediverse! -The music scene in here is BUZZING and the community is a joyous thing.</p><p>As always there is also a radio show version of this mixtape with me chatting between the tracks. That can be <a rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" href="https://www.audiointerface.org/shows/nham-mixtapes/" target="_blank">found on Audio Interface</a> (<a rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" class="u-url mention" href="https://mastodon.social/@audiointerface" target="_blank">@audiointerface</a>) from the first Monday of the month as well as occasionally featuring in <a href="https://nham.co.uk/listen" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">NHAM Radio</a>‘s Mixtape Monday slot.</p><p>[If viewing from the Fediverse you need to&nbsp;<a href="https://nham.co.uk/2025/06/next-level-happy-anniversaire-martin-nham-mixtape-12/" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">click here to listen to the mixtape on NHAM</a>]</p><p> </p><p>1. <a rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" href="https://label.nham.co.uk/martin/speed-of-life-part2/" target="_blank">Ctrl Alt Del</a> by Silverman<br>All Rights Reserved<br>The opening track from the third Silverman album, ‘Speed of Life (part 2)’ released in 2002. </p><p>2. <a rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" href="https://knobil.bandcamp.com/" target="_blank">Lampadaires</a> by Knobil <br>All Rights Reserved<br>Knobil aka Louise Knobil is a double bassist, singer and composer who blends jazz, punk, glitter and French chanson with sparkling, audacious energy.
