Music podcasts are great and usually follow the single presenter format, showcasing some of the best music.. in their opinion. Indeed this is exactly the format of our very own Indie Launchpad Podcast. Whilst these shows are predominately about the music, the single presenter format can be occasionally dry, which is why the Binary StarCast is like a breath of fresh air.

Before going any further, let me first give the caveat that this is a podcast intended for a strictly adult audience. Most of this is because our hosts Ed, Hank and Carlos use the kind of language you would be more used to hearing at the docks. Not that I’m a prude, but you probably wouldn’t want your young children picking up new words for use in the playground. You also might want to steer clear of playing this on the works P.A. system. Anyway enough of this, as with all music shows, it’s all about the music baby.

Each show is around the 30 minute mark, managing to squeeze in 5 tracks from different artists. The podcast is so far up to episode 27, and I have to say in all that time, I’ve not like about 5% of the music, which is a pretty good. In fact I’ve been put on to numerous bands which I’ve later reviewed on our Indie Launchpad review site.

Conclusion : One of the few music podcasts that makes for essential listening, but not just for the music. The inane ramblings of our hosts, makes for some great entertainment.
