The War Crimes are exclusive session guests for a second time on Andy's February show with three brand new songs. You'll also hear a classic John Peel session track by Boards Of Canada from 1998, alongside new music such as Yeti Lane, The Pains Of Being Pure At Heart, Boy Omega and Lucas Renney. The choicest unsigned cuts include The Spinoza State, Firefliers, The Horn The Hunt and A Dancing Beggar. Regular slots Scott's Funky Five Minutes and Teresa's Tasty Tips appear, as well as new feature Andy's MP3 Memory - selecting a favourite download from over a decade ago, when online music was in its infancy.

Three hours in length, this month's show features a thumping good session by Rack and Ruin Records artist Chad Golda. This exclusive Dandelion Radio live session features re-workings of material from Chad's forthcoming Dance Sessions album. Add to this an exclusive taster from Northcape's soon to be released Captured from Static album and whole host of exciting new music from the worlds of net audio, independent music and creative commons, and you've got a show not to be missed.
From 8-bit to lo-fi, from glitchy electronica to drum and bass, with a serving of indie pop along the way, this show also features tracks from Professor Kliq, Fidelium, Angela Aux, Musetta and Bitbasic to name but a handful of the artists featured. Woooo! (And I didn't lapse into metaphor once.)

Three exclusive sessions make up the bulk of Jeff's two hour, February outing. The Rain Bonnets, their second, at last, gets to be heard along with two other absolute blinders. The much anticipated Truth about Frank and The Hausfrauen Experiment who bring us their own magnificent take on four Fall classics.
Elsewhere Dihedral gives us a dub exclusive, the excellent Owls Owls Owls Compilation 'Playing for the Owls' has its first (and certainly not last) spin of the year plus other first time outings come in the shape of Weedy Dave, Cutthroat Convention and Emma Webb amongst others.
Finally if none of the above floats your boat then a not-to-be-missed monologue from a Doctor Who obsessed three year old will definitely win you over (Cheers Son!)

Intoxicated 23 kilo heavy basses around the world

Whilst packing her record bags for her New York trip to a 'DJ Maxximus' of 23 kilo, Dutch deejay Marcelle manages to record another three hour show with lots of 'Crazy Rhythms', as one of her Look Back Bore Records (of February 1980) jangly states. She shows the different directions the dubstep scene is heading into, gets totally hysterical about a German promo 12-inch (Markus Müller!), and calms down with the wonderful dreamy folk of her New York friends Christy & Emily. Different generations of quirky electronic music get nicely played together and mixed (Cluster & Uské Orchestra) and at last a chimney sweeper gets the praise he deserves, thanks to the best reissue label of the moment, Mississippi Records. After nearly 180 minutes of cutting edginess and record sorting the important decision is made: the 'Drunken Bass' flies with Marcelle to New York.

We're into February and as we all gear up for Collop Monday* what can you expect from Cunliffe's slice of Dandelion?
Julia's got a B-Complex, what's the worst an insect can do? Beans On Toast is nutritional but he's not applying that to New Yorkers the nasty man. Parker's gone all Eddie Izzard on us and is asking, "Ou est le sange?" Chase & Status have been emerying a Magnum ... but wouldn't it melt? Blue Daisy's in need of some guitar maintenance and Kulcha Knox is trying to skank on one leg. Yellow Fever's self titled album gets a four track feature and The Dust Collectors have been captured in their live splendidness for a fabulous session. There you are, very far from a load of Collops ...

*vegetarian alternatives are available

This month, the brilliant Spidersleg stops by with an exclusive session, while show favourites are queuing up with new material, including tracks from forthcoming albums by White Hills, Xiu Xiu, Sam Amidon and The Pocket Gods plus a remarkable one-off swept up from the cutting room floor of Marissa Nadler.

Elsewhere, we get a remarkable sonic titbit from Mr Peppermint and tasty morsels are tossed from the freshly heaving tables of Th' Parish, Butter Fingers and firm favourites' The Chasms, who test fly their new garage soul offshoot project The Wrong. All this, and Peel Back & Sniff delves back over thirty years to relive one of the most memorable Peel Session moments in history.

February's show has the usual mixture of the sublime (Gnod, Fieldhead), the ridiculous (Shit Eagle I Fuck God) and everything in between.
Strawberry Whiplash resurrect a forgotten mode of transport, Nosferatu D2 mourn the passing of a favourite Christmas gift and there's the return of the Hardcore Holocaust with a double shot of Extra Hot Sauce. That should clear your passages!

After taking a month off, 'The Rachael Neiman Experience' is back for an hour-long tour through the excellent new demos that have been piling up since November.
We have fantastic new tracks from the likes of Death to the Elephant, Pockets Filled With Matches, Peter Parker, Shrag, Hearts! Attack, Silence At Sea, Nature Set, Mascot Fight, Help Stamp Out Loneliness and many more!

This month we present another packed three-hour show. There are new tracks from Standard Fare, The Fallen Leaves, Cinema Red And Blue, Head Transfusion, Midlake, David Tattersall, Best Coast, The Blanche Hudson Weekend, Gregory Webster, Connecticut Four, and Cats On Fire.
There's a whole slew of new releases from Bristol's big hitters - including Portishead, and Massive Attack; and new electronica from Larsp, Betoko, and Luke Abbott; also dubstep tracks from Shackleton vs. Invasion, Instra:Mental remixed by Skream, and an amazing Joy Orbison remix of Four Tet. Meanwhile Popof takes on Depeche Mode, and The Flaming Lips and their friends Stardeath And White Dwarfs take on The Pink Floyd, with a little help from their friends Henry Rollins and Peaches.
This month's Peel's Big 45 is a soul classic from 1972, while this month's Educating Elizabeth is a Northern Soul anthem from the same era.
As well as little known acts, here's a little known fact: The first vocal heard on The Pink Floyd's best-selling 1973 LP "The Dark Side Of The Moon" says "I've been mad for fucking years".

Well the snow is all ugly and dirty. It still gets dark too soon. And the Xmas bills are due, but rejoice fore The Yank Sizzler Show on Dandelion Radio is throwing a wonderful soiree that includes the best in soul, punk, electronica, shoegaze, indie, garage, high life and just some good ole rock n' roll from Abe Vigoda, Blue Daisy, The Mountain Goats, Sunset, Ty Segall, Mi & L'au, Edward Sharpe and the Magnetic Zeros and many other party guests. We also raise our glass to the fond memories of Vic Chestnutt and Jay Reatard. They were good gents gone too soon.
