Andrew Morrison - October 2008 Andy's October show for Dandelion Radio features a live session from Alex Canasta, with four tracks recorded at their Copenhagen album launch party in August, along with a competition to win a copy of their debut album. As usual, there are two Tasty Tips from Teresa, and a Funky Five Minutes from Scott. The two hours of new and unsigned music include tunes from Lonely Ghosts, The Joy Formidable, Burial, and Decoration. Andy also marks the fourth anniversary of John Peel's death by playing one of John's favourite twelve-inch mixes. Listen in to find out what it is! | ||||

Jeff Grainger - October 2008 October's two hour Show follows the usual vague path previous shows have trodden; long, short, old, new and above all, getting hopelessly lost in the process. Accompanying our Album of the Month; F-A-R by Solanums and a brace of Northern Soul stompers. We'll witness a spectacular shoehorned plug for this Month's Dandelion Radio Night at The Castle, Union St Oldham (News/Events page) Which means of course you'll hear songs from each of the acts on the bill, in this case it's The Container Drivers, Hug Party, The Hang Project and Ste McCabe. New tracks by the likes of Onedia, Thomas Tantrum, Sterling, The Joy Formidable, Richie Phoe and others make for splendid travelling companions with this month's older contingent, (Hüsker Dü, & The Cimarons) With another damn fine D&B slab from our friend Shookz, warm ambient tones from Pjusk plus a knock treat for all you Broadcast fans to boot. I reckon this months offering definitely leans towards 'the not too bad at all actually'. | ||||

Mark Cunliffe - October 2008 For this month it's a show that'll amaze you more than Bobby Ball in a good comedy show and stagger you more than Jockey Wilson at last orders. There's Nirvana being re-worked by Ladyscraper. Pifco spooning up up some indie from Leeds. Goonda's blowing your mind and Fuda Guy's doing us a cocktail of grime and rock n roll. Damian Marley is going on a mission, Eshamanjaro is well off it and Reso's remixing his brass eye. RSD lands us in so much dub that it'll feel like bass quicksand. The Federals have me returning to my favourite subject of the moment, the Trabant. Lady Ali's giving it to us straight in a dancehall stylee. The Criterion Band nod off and Iziah DC has given me something so fresh it will never require Listerine mouth wash......and if that's not enough I've even got you a Purple Turkey..... | ||||

Mark Whitby - October 2008 In his October show, Mark puts to bed the old "never work with children and animals" adage by opening up his studio to a couple of lively pups. But if you can tear your attention away from that and listen to the tunes, there's the shortest Dandelion session ever (and perhaps the shortest ever session?) from Art Raghfunkle, who crams a fair bit of innovation into the minute or so he's on air for, so be careful not to go out to put the kettle on at the wrong time. In fact, you might want to leave the kettle where it is and engage in the kind of iron-stomach marathon normally only reserved for screenings of Ben-Hur, as Mark brings to your ears new tracks from Lazy Habits, Loman, Passion Pit, Eat Skull and much, much more. Like a Wall of Death rider Mark skirts daringly around the contrasting perimeters of the worlds of Hungarian funk with Kati Kovacs and Parisian elegance with elodieO, snatching a quick energy drink in Mozambique with Neco Novellas, before returning, gasping like a spent fish, to the industrially derelict north of England from whence he came, marvelling at the acoustic charms of Sinking Ships and finishing the whole thing off with the cinematic urban electronica of Ian Wilde. And finally, to bed, to dream happy dreams of merry sheep. | ||||

Neil Jenkins - October 2008 October sees Neil return to the virtual airwaves after a three month absence. No specials this month as Neil plays 'catch-up' to make up for lost time. Amongst the two-hour mix of material, you will find two back-to-back tracks from show favourites Ladies!Disaster! from Munich and there's a taster of the This Is The Kit LP that Neil will feature in his November show. Other points of note include a demo track from much-asked-for artist Lettie, plus an announcement of the availablility of her new LP, and (finally) a track from Tina Mali after many failed attempts by Neil to get his hands on her CD. | ||||

Pete Jackson - October 2008 October brings the first ever session to Pete's show, and its a right corker from Lovecraft - five tracks, including the least-likely choice of cover version imaginable. On top of that there are two different acts that feature Stuart Braithwaite, great psychedlia from Wooden Shjips and Beyond The Wizard's Sleeve, remixed classics from Skream and Barrington Levy, and a potential contender for the new Swedish National Anthem from The Social Services. | ||||

Rocker - October 2008 As usual this month, Rocker manages to squeeze the maximum sounds into a three-hour show. We pay tribute to the recently deceased Richard Wright, as well as to John Peel himself, hard to believe it is now four years since we lost him. There's a plethora of new, recent, and forthcoming LP releases, including a featured LP by Canada's Vancougar, and tracks from those by Stereolab; The Pains Of Being Pure At Heart; Flannel; Emily Jane White; Vessels; Wreckless Eric and Amy Rigby; Minisnap; Coming Soon; The Brazen; Wire; Calexico; and Bakers At Dawn. And since we don't have any material yet from the forthcoming Emmy The Great LP, we play one of her demos. There's a couple of remixes of a track from the new Mercury Rev LP, including an absolute stormer by James Holden, and also a couple of remixes of Eric Prydz' house hit "Pjanoo" - both of which radically revise the rather cheesy original in quite startlingly different ways. There's also a stunning new techno track from Petar Dundov. The Manhattan Love Suicides take on Bruce Springsteen, Lightspeed Champion revamps Amy Winehouse, and there's a new dub of one of Easy Star All-Stars' classic Radiohead covers. This month's Peel's Big 45 is a Jagger / Richards composition released on Decca in 1964, by one the finest bands ever to come out of Rugby, UK. As well as little known acts, here's this month's little known fact: A Titillomaniac is someone who scratches compulsively. | ||||

Yank Sizzler - October 2008 The October episode of the Yank Sizzler Show on Dandelion Radio is a damn riot as I can't contain my excitement over new releases from Calexico, Giant Sand, The Whispertown 2000 & Dutchess And The Duke. Plus we dive deep into the small vinyl only label phenom that is Mississippi Records and their archival tastes for African Highlife and Golden Era Gospel. We talk to mad men who talk back in their dreams and tune in the latest from the 8BitPeoples camp. And of course favorites from Stereolab, Pissed Jeans, Shallow, Bob Dylan, Boris & Ex Orkest will all make themselves known. That and more this month. | ||||
