There is no show from Leo Gilbert this month
On the show NEXT month:
Leo's June show is like a bootleg transmission intercepted at 2:13am: a tangle of mangled pop mutations, dead radio frequencies, phantom circuitry and melodies that feel like they crawled out of dreams you can’t quite remember.
He kicks off with Deerhoof twisting reality sideways before The Leaf Library opens the door to dim corridors and paper-dust atmospheres. ps goner drifts in with late-night confession booth energy while Royal Commission rummages through the wreckage of systems already beginning to fail. Meitei , Radio Hito and Pharoah Chromium drag us through rituals, static and strange geographies.
Elsewhere, ~Nois fractures the ending before The Femcels perform some beautifully unhinged pop surgery. Boards of Canada tune into ghost frequencies and Max Cooper maps the machinery of obsession while Powell , Pye Corner Audio & Andy Bell and Serokolo 7 push deeper into the circuitry.
Then the whole thing catches fire: Sister Irene O'Connor , Russell Haswell , Charif Megarbane & Ali, moments of funk, future shock and sudden beauty. By the time Dreamwave , Baligh Hamdi , Iivana Mišukka & Arja Kastinen and Look. Up. arrive, you’re already too far in to turn back.
Expect left turns. False endings. Sudden drops. Keep the dial locked. Weird lives here.

Biography:
I am in many ways your typical John Peel fan. I grew up listening to his shows from the era of punk rock until his death, and, with increasing obsessiveness, compiled cassettes, mini discs and finally mp3 playlists of the best tunes. Music runs through my family’s veins, and in me this takes the form of a compulsive search for new sounds. As John Peel used to put it, what I really want to hear is something I haven’t heard before.
Envy fills me when I read what my Dandelion collaborators have achieved in promoting, making and playing music, but my life as a teacher for the past quarter of a century has squeezed out any time for, well, pretty much anything apart from listening to and appreciating what continues to be made musically across the world. At last, though, I have found the space to pursue what has long been an ambition and can attempt to meet the stellar broadcasting standards set by my volunteer colleagues by sharing my love of new music with Dandelion listeners. I really hope at least some of what you hear gets its hooks into you.
