Andrew Morrison - January 2026
Andy commences the new year with his traditional January look back at his favourite tunes from the previous year. This two-hour show features the very best highlights from 2025, including Purity Ring, For Those I Love, Sister Ray Davies, Innerverse & Freddie Dickson, TEED, Pulp, Deary, The Divided Circle, Raz & Afla, Rival Consoles, and many, many more. There's also a detour back to 1998 for an Andy's Old Chestnut from The Durutti Column, which has a direct link to another of Andy's 2025 favourites.

You can also hear Andy in two collaborative shows within this month's schedule: the official 2025 Festive Fifty listeners' poll results countdown; and January's '2025 Review' show, playing a further small selection of his picks from this year. See the schedule on the website for streaming broadcast times, or listen on demand at https://www.mixcloud.com/DandelionRadio/.

Brevi Linens - January 2026
Brevi will be spending the first few days of 2026 at Rockaway Beach Festival at Bognor Regis. English Teacher, Soft Play, Dry Cleaning and Public Image Limited are amongst the acts on the bill but he's hoping to enjoy some lesser known ones in the bargain to report back about.
This month is Brevi's second show and he will play a track from Bloody Head's January release, some classics off recent reissue albums and take you on a special psychedelic wander, should you wish to escape the reality of what is too often regarded as the darkest month of the year.
Mingled with some spoken word tracks throughout, a proper livener in from Only Fools And Corpses plus a bit of the weird and wonderful from Germ Lattice will also feature this month's sonic smorgasbord.

David Smith - January 2026
Greetings!
A new year and already there are exciting new releases. I have new stuff from Ty Segall & The Muggers, American Lips, Adele Dazeem, Twenty One Children, Black Bomber, Tomates En Verano, Lucid Express, Intergalactic Mechanic and new cover songs by Party Dozen and Xiu Xiu. Speaking of cover songs, check out the cover done by The Space Lady. It might just change your life.
I try to keep my in-show talking to a minimum to make more room for music, but I do have more to discuss about what I play, so check out my companion show notes over at http://davidondandelion.blogspot.com.
Enjoy the show!

Leo Gilbert - January 2026
Leo's show this month is a long, slanted walk through systems that hum, fracture, heal, and occasionally combust. We open in a kind of uneasy calibration mode: Prewn's "System" and Prolapse's Faust-remixed "Ectoplasm Untied" set the tone for a set where structure is constantly tested, bent, and reassembled. From there, Headache & Vegyn's hyper-clarity rubs up against the woozy playfulness of Voka Gentle (via Goat Girl), before Lord Of The Isles' "Astraglossa" pulls us into deeper, tidal territory.

There's a strong emotional undercurrent running through the show, but it never settles. Just Mustard's blurred-out intensity, Vanessa Amara's slow-motion shimmer, and the strange folk echoes of Buppah Saichol and Lisa O'Neill all gesture towards feeling without ever pinning it down. Elsewhere, club logic keeps mutating: Clark, Powell, Avalon Emerson, Martinou and Bicep offer propulsion in very different dialects, while Jamie xx's remix for Robyn reframes dopamine as something anxious and slightly feral.

Collaboration and collision are key motifs. Surusinghe meets Cameo Blush via gyrofield, Rachika Nayar and The Field braid textures, and Pain Magazine's brutalist catharsis sits unexpectedly close to the hushed intimacy of King Creosote live or Emma Pollock's rush of red. There's humour too, often dark or sideways: IDLES via Interpol, People Like Us' skewed archival mischief, and Nakano Rhythm Boys' voice-as-instrument oddity.

As the show unfolds, genres dissolve into each other - ambient into dub, folk into techno, pop into noise - until the distinctions feel irrelevant. What remains is motion, curiosity, and a sense of listening as an active, communal act. No neat ending, no final answer - just a shared drift through sound, heading for the moon but happy to get lost on the way.

Mark Cunliffe - January 2026
Happy New Year people. I always feel I never get let down by a new year in music. I never really get disappointed at a year. I think the volume of music out there is so vast that there is just always stuff to really like from month to month. This month come with fire and matches it in a completely different style. There is something new from and I've very belatedly discovered who are magnificent. have a new one which is great and have their new album out which is both great and very sad indeed as Amadou passed after it was created but before its release. returns after a slight hiatus. I'm really pleased with the music in the show, I feel it's a good way to kick of 2026 :-)

Mark Whitby - January 2026
Difficult to imagine a better way to start the year than with an exclusive head-shredding session from VX to shake off any residual New Year cobwebs. We've also got a featured compilation from Western Vinyl, all proceeds from which support refugees and asylum seekers in the US.
Naturally, we look at what's coming our way in the early weeks and months of 2026 and the signs are good: new albums from Ladytron, Bill Callahan, Dry Cleaning and Bodel, among others. There's also a new single from Novelistme and, of course, there's something from the new Xiu Xiu covers album in there too.

One Big House - January 2026
Plenty of things to look forward to from 2026 and this show will play some of the artists for who we should be most excited namely Dog Race, My First Time, Sara Miller, Gut Health, Lael Neale and They Are Gutting a Body of Water.
To add to the optimism for a New Year there's a great LP of the month from Sharp Pins and some brilliant new stuff from The Savage Hearts, Spanish Horses, Vulture Feather, Modern Nature and Hater.
There are also tracks from upcoming album releases from Keeley, B.Dolan, Middleman and Surfbort
And for the whole of 2026 this show will look back at the first twenty years of Dandelion Radio and to start with there's a couple of blasts of guitar magic from Yuck and Alvvays.

Rocker - January 2026
An hour from Rocker to start the year, including new tracks from Wild Billy Childish & CTMF; Crabber; Cabiin; The Lovely Basement; The Just Joans; The Charlie Tipper Rebellion; and Lande Hekt.
There's electronica from Aalson; Prolapse are remixed by Faust; there are new tracks from both T.Rex and Swell Maps - the former recorded in 1975 and newly mixed for release, the latter from a recently recorded forthcoming album.
This month's Rocker's Shellac Attack is from 1945 out of California, while this month's Educating Elizabeth record is played to mark the passing of guitarist Steve Cropper.
As well as little known acts, here's a little known fact: The Stax record label took its name from the surnames of its founders - Jim Stewart and Estelle Axton.

Sean Hocking - January 2026
It's another year at Dandelion radio and I'm kicking off with a 3 hour show featuring some new tunes and a few things from 2025 that various others reminded me that I missed.
First up we've got something that won't be released until mid January on Metal Postcard. Reine Des Lezards covering Parisian industrial punks, Metal Urbain.
Lots of newbie aussies ... Cammy Cautious & The Wrestlers, Sud, Scrabbled and the fab new 7" from Tee Vee Repairman.
I'm really enjoying Jimmy and the Boonies, Jacky Cougar & the Vampyres from Africa, O. Rex & Wasted Pido - all noisy stuff that warms the cockles of my heart.
One half of Senyawa, Wukir Suryadi, has teamed up with Indonesian hip hop producer Jaydawn and created some magic sauce or as the say here "Saus" with their album released in October.
Also Clipping, Xray Xerox, Dog Chocolate and Fat Dog a newbie from The Bordellos and that's only half it.

Thomas Blatchford - January 2026
It's the start of 2026 and the same month as the Festive 50 so why not take a last glimpse in the cosmic rearview mirror at the year just past while keeping our eyes on the road ahead baby!
There's some songs of the past big annus from Miss Kaninna, Hearts and Rockets, Hetslayer, Hannah McKittrick and Boggle, plus some new old stuff reappearing from Shitmat and Huggy Bear.
Gay animals, ghost riders and great garments, we know how to get our kicks in '26!

X-Ray Moon - January 2026
If your family pet is constipated X-Ray Moon's brief rendition of a snippet of a Monty Python song should loosen the damn mongrel up.
This month Moony loosens our waxed-up post festive ears with another damn fine cross-section of bad-arsed grooviness and funkalicious tunes from the likes of:
Reverend Beat-Man, Nyron Higor and Split System. He doesn't hold back either, by introducing us to some new tunes or reissues from some old favs. There is, for example, a track from The Damned's upcoming album; there's a (oh god, it must be the mid-80s again) track from Half Man Half Biscuit, and the superb Beta Band. And to completely go wild in the country (Bow Wow Wow reference that) he plays a namesake with their track Static Cling by the group Xray Xeroxx ...
This is a fabulous show, as are all the Dandelion Shows, for brushing away the post festive blues and to welcome in the beginnings of a New Year. And if that weren't enough – he also announces another one of his Specials programmes that will be coming later in the year.
X-Ray Moon wishes everybody a peaceful, subversive and egalitarian 2026 ... and finally announces the shocking revelation that he is more 'Roll' than 'Rock'.
