On my show this month:
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!
On the show NEXT month:
This month's show starts with a French incantation and ends with a woodwind collective, so who knows where it'll go in the meantime?
Well, you will, once you listen to it.
There's righteous fury from Commitment , Euniq and [artistGrove/artist], a glimpse into Peel sessions past from The Twinsets , a warm dip into Uriel's Bath (recently drawn) and the literal sound of some starlings at Heathrow airport.
Plus new gorgeousness from The Leaf Library , Waterbaby , DJ Chad and the like.

Biography:
Thomas Blatchford was born in Southampton (UK) but has now lived for over
a decade in Birraranga (aka Melbourne, Australia). An avid listener to the
John Peel show between 2000-2004 (first show: May 3rd 2000, with Kid Koala
in session), Thomas tries to make up for the disappointment of never having
a Peel session by always being in at least five bands simultaneously (which
currently includes - genuinely - an acappella glam metal trio). Thomas
previously ran the bedroom record label Fulsome Prism Recordings, and was
also involved with another DIY imprint, Helen Llewelyn Product Nineteen,
way back when. Thomas still occasionally makes fanzines even though it is
no longer 1981, and works in a discount bookshop to make ends meet.
