On my show this month:
Andy's bumper three-hour July show has two exclusive session guests: Block 45 (his second for the show) and Canadian electronic act Spiral Into The Storm. There's loads of new music, including Team Ghost; Ghost Society; These New Puritans, Before You Die...; Lightspeed Champion; Document 3; and some excellent Italian punk from His Electro Blue Voice. The Twilight Sad are press-ganged into The Orchestra Hit Liberation Front when previous session guests Errors pounce on them with their remixing toolkit. In a cheeky cameo, the starship Enterprise crew co-host the show, and The Joy Formidable inspires an appearance from champion whistler Ronnie Ronalde. July's New Order jukebox rewinds 20 years to Italia '90, Scott selects another Funky Five Minutes and there's also an Arab Strap tune from their 1998 John Peel session.
Biography: "Brilliant... reminded me what radio should be about" (Cygnus X-1) "Grotesquely self indulgent, but why not?" (John Peel, 15/7/2004)
From Portsmouth in southern England (now living in Hamble, near Southampton), I was the voice of BBC Radio 1's John Peel show, providing the spoken word 'offensive content' announcements, which can be heard here. I also recorded announcements and title music for Radio 1's Rob Da Bank One Music show, which can be downloaded and streamed here. I was interviewed by Radio 1 in October 2005 for a documentary about the life and legacy of John Peel. Listen to it online here.
I was one of the founding members of Dandelion Radio and have been presenting a monthly show since its inception in 2006. This follows my previous experience presenting a weekly show for Portsmouth Hospital Radio back in the late 90s. I've also appeared on Rob Da Bank's Bestival FM and Portsmouth's Express FM. I occasionally spin tunes out and about, with highlights so far including DJing at Danish band Alex Canasta's album launch party in Copenhagen, and supporting Autons, Forest Giants and King Of Spain at the Shoreditch Cargo, London. I also have a wide-ranging background of music production, performing, remixing and engineering - some of which can be heard here.
I welcome demos, so get sending them in now to: Andrew Morrison, c/o Dandelion Radio, PO Box 54918, London W3 6ZS, United Kingdom or email mp3s & web links to .
