Andrew Morrison - February 2024
After looking back last month, Andy's February show pushes forward into 2024 with nearly all of its tracks released this year or in the final weeks of 2023. New music comes from Tired Cossack, French For Rabbits, West Wickhams, Lord Kesseli And The Drums, Masal, R. Missing, MGMT, Deary and Bdrmm. You'll hear two tracks from the brand new Epic45 album (released on New Year's Day), plus there's an extraordinarily rare Andy's Old Chestnut from The KLF's "Pure Trance" era from a frankly unfathomable 35 years ago - where has all that time gone?

X-Ray Moon - February 2024
This month X-Ray pretends he is one of the windy tornados that Britain has been experiencing recently by not only blowing hard and then harder still (in a musical sense {not in a heavy metal sense though}), sometimes he has blown so hard he has gone red in the face and blown his own socks off ...
Some of his long-since-forgottens include the get-up and shake your chilly British booties to Balkan Beatbox, with a track that probably isn't dedicated to the much missed Mark E Smith - it's called Cha Cha.
Chassol's out last year phenomenal track of I'm Not A Real Person takes the words of the sadly demised outsider artist Jean-Michel Basquiat and puts them to music (read by Chassol). And, of course, interesting for X-Ray Moon, he reminds us, is the link between outsider art (or aka Art Brut) and one of his passions Surrealism.
Talking of Surrealism, X-Ray Moon has included a short poem by the Surrealists Andre Breton and Paul Eluard.
Los Bitchos with their track Tequilla shakes us up and makes us want to find the salt and the lime, even at breakfast.
Not forgetting a new track by the wonderful Faust.
And so so so much more your could hang your coat and gloves on it.
X-Ray Moon states that he is trying to help get us through winter with a massive blowing away of all post festive cobwebs ...
The revolution will be radiovised (sic). Enjoy!
