On my show this month:
This month X-Ray Moon takes us to a world where there are two suns in the sky, the clocks turn backwards and vegan sausages have become all powerful benign overlords... The planet, both in psychological terms and environmental ones, has become at ease with itself and has 'embraced the strange'. Experimental and non-linear art and music has become the norm, and 'life is a babbar-jay old chum'.
Peiriant, Gabriel Zingiber, and Mary In The Junkyard are happily meandering hand-in-hand down a tree-lined avenue with old wise-heads such as Julian Cope and CAN.
X-Ray Moon finishes with the following: to Fight War Not Wars and to Save The Planet and above all listen to good music (a lot of which can be found at Dandelion Radio).
He wishes everybody a happy August.

On the show NEXT month:
Conkers in the caldron, naked dancing around the goat's head in the forest, throwing meringues at Mrs Miggins jealous puffin ... yes, X-Ray Moon announces with discernible glee, it's September.
On this month's show he, as is his wont, plays the old and the new – mainly new. Some new offerings presented to us by Mooney are, for instance: SAUL WILLIAMS, The Three Napoleons, and Dramachine; and some of the older tracks are from the likes of Brian Protheroe and Andi Sexgang.
X-Ray Moon hopes everyone had a great summer (in his hemisphere) and will have a groovy fireworks and fireside Autumn ... and he hopes everyone enjoys his September show.

Biography:

Music both old and new. My tendency has always been to be attracted to the 'different', the other, the subversive… something that in one way or another challenges authority or orthodoxy and somehow attempts to shape wider society. Whether that be Punk, two-tone, Krautrock, Rai… etc.
In addition to that though I quite simply enjoy discovering the new, the different and the strange. Sounds, voices and atmospheres from around this small globe we call home are what excite me...
Over the years I have lived in many different countries, and wherever I was John Peel was the background, for many years, that aurally lit-up my adventures. He so perfectly reminded us that the quality, importance and worth of something has nothing to do with its 'popularity', and more to do with how it breaks down barriers and makes the complacent feel uncomfortable. How music at its best can be so much more than just a wallpaper-friendly pop song. So, then, eternal thanks to John Peel, who helped mould many of us…
Plus, thanks for listening. It is a great pleasure and joy to bring these shows to you; I hope you enjoy what you hear.
