UK webzine Punktastic.com has launched the first of its monthly podcasts. Featuring an array of UK-based bands, the 40-minute MP3 acts as a taster for some quality homegrown talent you may not yet have heard of. It features new, previously unheard tracks by Chaser, Fleeing From Finales, Milk2Sugars, Penknifelovelife, Short Warning and Tauntra, plus an interview with The Bled. You just need WinAmp, Windows Media Player, or any other player capable of handling MP3s and then visit identit.34sp.com/podcast.php. It’s 32mb so it’ll take you less than 9 minutes to download on basic broadband, and hardly any time at all on a faster connection.
