Andy's Arab Strap Special - September 2025 Andy has something a bit different, and very special this month: a two-hour Arab Strap special, including an interview with Malcolm Middleton and Aidan Moffat recorded whilst on their August UK tour, in which they discuss their entire three-decade career. The interview is split into four parts throughout the show, and includes exclusive news about their future plans. Naturally, you're going to hear a few of Andy's favourite Arab Strap songs, as well as the usual mix of new music from other acts including Simon Heartfield, The Micronaut, Brian Bilston & The Catenary Wires, Melys, Purity Ring, Tracey, Deary, Saint Etienne, Black Honey and others.

Plus hear a Peel Acres live track by a band who wish they'd come from the Sixties, courtesy of Cardiff's The Loves. The 2nd hour's guest presenter is Gemma from Glasgow Post-Punk band Dancer. She'll be taking part in 'Something Old, Something New, Something Borrowed, Something Blue' to coincide with their new album 'More or Less', released September 12th by Meritorio Records. All this, plus new Indiepop from Tullycraft and The Cords, Exotica brass from The Tikiyaki Orchestra and for canine fans, there are four songs about dogs including Elephant 6 duo Giant Day.

Leo Gilbert - September 2025 This month's radio show from Leo is a journey through shifting moods, sonic textures, and cultural connections. It begins with Scott Lavene's dryly humorous "A Bus in July", grounding the listener in everyday detail before sliding into the electronic spectrum with CHLOE's atmospheric "Androgyne" remix, Amon Tobin's kaleidoscopic "Paisley Knights", and Qasim Naqvi's futuristic "Beautification Technologies". The energy grows sharper with Zoë Mc Pherson's glitchy experimentation before drifting into ambient reflection through 7038634357's "Seventeen Nights" and Biosphere's cosmic soundscapes. From there, the program weaves tender folk (Poor Creature), spiritual resonance (Jonah Brody), and surreal humour (Gelli Haha) with darker, more industrial turns from Headless Horseman, Two Shell, and Anne-James Chaton's angular spoken-word collaboration. Midway, sharp-edged punk and murky basslines from Wednesday and Facta sustain the tension. The show then expands outward, embracing global perspectives: Orchestra Gold's Malian-inspired grooves, Bombino's desert blues, and Africa Express's celebratory collaborations. Intimate moments surface in Valentina Goncharova's meditations, Iona Zajac's stripped-back ballad, and Darren Hayman's quiet melancholy. Cinematic and experimental collages follow - IDLES, Blanck Mass, claire rousay & William Tyler, and Nobukazu Takemura—before closing with Viv Albertine's raw spoken confessionals, Tafese Tesfaye's ethereal harp, and Roméo Poirier's aquatic dissolves. A borderless, exploratory soundscape.

Mark Cunliffe - September 2025 TWO featured album's this month (although I managed to forget about one until half way through recording the show!). They are both instrumental albums by The Flying Hats and Sababa 5 and are really excellent (clearly, otherwise they wouldn't be featured.... :-) ). Nahi Mitti is back with more of his intricate electronic business and Néstor Álvarez delivers his usual slab of Latin quality. The People Who Run The Country have delivered an album, their first since they formed during the covid years and put one out in 2022. Brazil's Travelling Wave have emerged after many baron years and I'm very glad about that indeed. If you like footwork then I've gone a bit ghetto house crazy this month! Why ever not! :-)

Mark Whitby - September 2025 This month's show features an excellent exclusive session from Alexei Shishkin, featuring not only a wonderful cover of a much-loved Microdisney song but another track that's unlikely to be heard anywhere else, in any form. In addition to that we have tracks from new albums by The Beths, Osees, Richard Quirk and Bloodshot Bill, among others, plus new singles from The Cords, Burial and Cornershop. There's more from the excellent Public Enemy and Half Man Half Biscuit albums plus something from the new Eamon the Destroyer album, destined to join them in my personal list of 2025 favourites. Peel Back..., as usual, reintroduces us to tunes featured in session in John Peel's shows 50, 40 and 30 years ago this month.

One Big House - September 2025 One Big House has been to Australia visiting family so this is the all-Aussie show! Each band and artist have Australian roots, including some with a First Nation background. Already familiar with artists Girl and Girl, Tamara and the Dreams and Sex Mask the show gives them a play. The "undervalued, underappreciated" band this month, Philadelphia Grand Jury are, of course, from Australia too. An old Peel Session recording from Magic Dirt, and tracks from a couple of years ago from Watty Thompson, R.M.F.C. and Gee Tee. From a couple of months ago, songs by Sleep D, Troth and DJ PGZ. Plus brand-new stuff from Belair Lip Bombs and Folk Bitch Trio.

Rocker - September 2025 A two hour show this month, Including new tracks from Dark Thoughts; Brian Bilston and The Catenary Wires; Carnivorous Flower; The Science Of Words; Lightning In A Twilight Hour; The Reds, Pinks, And Purples; The Drain On The Balcony; Sweetpool; Love, Burns; Action Painting!; Allo Darlin'; Don't Worry; Jonathan Richman; The Cords; Tullycraft; and The Penrose Web. There's an epic new track from Burial, and more electronica from Douglas Greed; McDowell & Westaway; Richard Quirk; and Max Cooper remixed by Amotik. Manyfingers remixes David Lance Callahan. This month's Rocker's Shellac Attack is a 1939 release, while this month's Educating Elizabeth record is a new release from an LA soul dynasty. As well as little known acts, here's a little known fact: The Boll Weevil is a beetle which feeds on the seed capsule, or boll, of cotton plants. In the first half of the twentieth century it devastated cotton crops across the southern states of the USA and beyond, contributing to the great depression of the 1920s.

Sean Hocking - September 2025 I'm never happier than when a new Burial release quietly appears from the ether and as I neither have the cash or inclination to stand in a soggy/bone dry field for 3 days eating awful food, I'm even happier that I can settle in with an Imaginary Festival and soak it all up from the comfort of the dining room table. Other new releases in the show this month include Nashville's Snooper, Big Modern, Viper Patrol, Xray Xeroxx, Apero, Getdown Services & Tanning Bats. Damon is back with Africa Express, I played the debut to death and although this is less Mali and more Afrobeats it still gets the BOTP seal of approval. On the oldies front we've Beth Orton, Bob Dylan who I can't stop playing at the moment and a couple of Balearic Sabbath edits as a fitting way to remember Ozzy. Finally I've slipped in for Peel a special Diogo Jota rendition of "You'll Never Walk Alone", by Anfield. If the great man were here I think that would be one of the pieces of music closest to his heart for 2025.

X-Ray Moon - September 2025 X-Ray Moon will this month be edging us gently into the orange rusty-coloured soup of Autumn. Oh where did those heady days of summer disappear to? But, there's no need to fret because Moony has us covered with a gentle easing into the sun-down times with new tracks from, for instance, Sprints; Eamon The Destroyer; Masala Coffee; and, Jumble Hole Clough. For those leaf-falling (physically and metaphorically) pleasantly nostalgic moments, X-Ray Moon plays a few warm bath, candles and reassuringly buttery toast tracks with the likes of, The Raincoats; a rare David Bowie track; and, Pel Mel... X-Ray Moon wishes shiny vinegar-soaked conkers to all.
