Shane recently moved his podcast over to Muxtape (great selection as usual, do check it), so I thought I would do a little tape too.

I think the first asset I would need would be a code genius, someone with the ability to build a great interface a la Muxtape, platform independent, iPhone capable etc Yes, coders before musicians. As for the music I have a few ideas of people I would call…
