On my show this month:
A one-hour show from Rocker this month, Including new tracks from Allo Darlin; Jeanines ; 22° Halo; Mekons; Lightheaded ; and The Reds, Pinks, And Purples.
There's electronica from Cortona; The Catenary Wires team up with Poet Brian Bilston.
This month's Rocker's Shellac Attack is a 1946 song about second hand furniture, and this month's Educating Elizabeth record is a brand new soul instrumental out of Cincinnati, Ohio.
As well as little known acts, here's a little known fact: David Thomas named his band Pere Ubu after the central character from the 1896 surrealist classic Ubu Roi, by French playwright Alfred Jarry.

Biography:
I am proud to be a DJ for dandelionradio.com - as far as we know we are the only radio station inspired by John Peel - I was a Peel listener from 1976 to 2004 and it was his open minded attutude to different genres that has shaped my own tastes. It is a great buzz to be carrying on the great man's work and bringing previously unknown artists to the attention of our listeners.
As well as my radio DJing I have been known to drag my crates around the UK - I currently hold DJ residencies at monthly indiepop nights Sunny Inside Presents in Stoke-on-Trent and Big Pink Cake in Bristol, as well as co-promoting and DJing at Bristol's monthly vinyl-only Northern Soul night, Getting Together. I have also appeared as guest DJ at some of London's finest indie nights: Twee As Fuck; How Does It Feel To Be Loved; Lost Music Presents; and Scared To Dance.
I run eclectic CD-R label Local Underground, and am promoter and resident DJ for related gigs & events as Local Underground Presents. I also play out a progressive house set as B_Man - you can download some old mixes here. In the Bristol, UK area I have DJd for Manna parties as well as Empathy, and Voodoo nights. My ambient / chillout / dub reggae / punk / soundtracks / psychedelia sets are also much in demand in certain (crop) circles. Over the years I have also been known to play keyboards / drums in various ensembles. I record most of the bands' sessions for my show in my recording studio, StAR Studios, which, like me, has a busy schedule!
You can find me on MySpace here, and on Facebook here!
