Andy's August show has 60 minutes of new and recent music from Broken Social Scene, The Early Years, R. Missing, The Twilight Sad, Sister Ray Davies, Les Big Byrd, and Veps. There's a languid, summery ambient guitar piece from Birds In The Brickwork which includes a field recording that has a surprising connection to one of Andy's past jobs; an obscure Andy's Old Chestnut from a 1995 'Volume' compilation CD by State Of Grace, plus the two latest brilliant singles released in June and July from Andy's favourite band (and past guests on the show) Arab Strap's forthcoming 9th studio album.

This month Brevi'll have you bouncing around the room for the first half hour to get it all out of your system with some cracking psychedelic surf punk from PowerSolo before we go on to some unusual hip hop from Indian artist That Lakshay. There's going to be some dirty noise coming at you from Pittsburg's kicked in the head by a horse and LOUSE because sometimes the world hurts and that hurt should not be swept under the carpet, it needs to be expressed.
There'll be an exclusive track from the great forthcoming The Yummy Fur album which is out at the end of next month. Amidst all that, expect some electronica from HAAi and Camille Baziadoly & The Filthy Honey and many more unusual finds for you good listeners!
Enjoy high-energy music responsibly.

Greetings!

No death tributes this month, which is nice. What I do have is a ton of new music from the likes of Manic Pixxies, Witch Piss, Space Bucket, Gimic, Alien Nosejob, Dead Pioneers, Reb Fountain, Wax Minds, Cagnard, Smirk, Diät, Khun Narin, and more. I also have new stuff from two VERY interesting artists, Jazz and Ak'chamel - The Givers Of Illness.

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!

Emma kicks off her fourth show with a touching tribute to Bonnie Tyler from EldGrisen and then rattles very quickly along a rollercoaster of bands with the word 'Snuggle' in their name, live tracks recorded at Leigh Folk festival, some squelch from Wayne Adams , exquisite vocalisations from Eleonora Kampe and the contents of a very busy inbox because you're a talented and generous bunch. There's finally a track from the suavely downbeat Tony Morris and we end with a bit of sweary fun from Angry!, a Southend punk band fronted by a man called Gary and a lady called Anne. They could have called themselves GaryAnne but that would just be backwards.....

Gareth's August show brings you 2 hours of new releases, from Riot Grrrl to Country to Electro. Plus some secret instrumentals from the Sixties and some unusual cover versions (ever heard 'Swan Lake' played by surf guitar?). In the 2nd hour the show is joined by guest presenters PLRLS (pronounced "Plurals"), a Post-Punk & New Wave band from Baltimore, Maryland. 3 band members will be taking part in another edition of 'Something Old, Something New, Something Borrowed, Something Blue', plus introducing a couple of songs off their latest album 'Sleeping In A Dress'.

Somewhat unbelievably I kick things off this month with the long-awaited posthumous return of The Fall, before heading off in all sorts of directions with new music from Les Mamans du Congo & Photay, Genesis Owusu, Overmono, Kristin Hersh, Gilla Band and Arab Strap.

Elsewhere, there’s a track from one of my favourite albums of the year so far — Sicilian folk colliding with industrial electronics courtesy of Nuhara, the hypnotic grandad channeling sounds of King Ayisoba, dirty ambient beats from Kaitlyn Aurelia Smith, and of course the obligatory Italian powerviolence from Ape Unit.

I also have a bit of a rant about AI making up complete nonsense about one of the artists, alongside the usual random ramblings. Count Binface for the win!

Another of Leo's radio programmes has been assembled. The tracks have been arranged into an order after a process that can no longer be reconstructed. The result begins with The Fall setting the thermostat to 30 Degrees before Hora Lunga politely presents Telepass, after which events become steadily less accountable.

Blak Saagan, Otay:onii and The Denson Quartet briefly suggest that human civilisation remains operational. Hannah Frances maintains composure while Nathan Fake demonstrates that geometry can be loud. Gurriers advise that nobody is coming to save you. Pussy Riot recommend disobedience anyway. Both positions are noted.

Elsewhere, De Ambassade's white horses appear, Speedy J's vectors drift, Callahan & Witscher's five-year plan fails to inspire confidence, and One Leg One Eye proves one eye is sufficient for hunting. taihr brings heavy rain, Chad Van Gaalen gets stuck inside the walls, and there is the persistent suspicion that someone has accepted a new job without fully reading the description.

Midway through, PJ Harvey travels, The Notwist contemplates dentistry, Joshua Crumbly laughs with unnerving commitment, and L'Rain quietly dismantles the distinction between soul-searching and system failure. Lyra Pramuk adjusts reality, Chanel Beads removes everything except the drums, and Nuhara descends into memory with admirable determination.

Martin Green and Radie Peat offer a reminder that sincerity still exists, just before sandy chamoun, Gilla Band and Strange Pink ensure that any emotional stability is kept within acceptable limits. First Class and Coach address dishonesty, Voka Gentle remixes Bob Dylan by way of another dimension, and Lolina concludes proceedings with Monopoly of Mistakes, a title that feels less like a song than an administrative summary.

Please listen responsibly. Or don't. The playlist has already made its decision.

Lisa Christine is excited to play a live unreleased track from Wupie entitled, Iona.
There are also new releases from Vetch, Dead Stilletos, Dead Pioneers featuring Jason Williamson and PowerSolo.
This months cover track is Pink Mist originally a T-Bitch track and covered by Rites of Hadda and we also have a remix of Wokerati Party "Divide and Rule" remixed by Marc Dauncey.
We have the absolute pleasure to play a track from the soon to be released debut album, Straight Outta Bradford from Queer of Hearts.
From recently attended gigs, we have Vetch, Half Brick and Stresssyteem.
We hope that there is something for everyone in this show. Thank you for listening to Dandelion Radio.
If you are in a band and you think that your music fits with my show, or you have any forthcoming gigs that may be right up my street, please email lisachristine at dandelionradio.com

Well, another month has whistled past and there has been a blur of new music to accompany it. Some of which has been captured in my August show. What though?
Well..... CRAIC DAVID gives us some Countdown vibes and Eddy Current Suppression Ring are also on board. Fatoumata Diawara brings us more from her new album and Acid Arab comes at us with something positively sulphuric. Nono has a new album out and there is something from it and Sweeping Promises are back with some new material. There is not one but TWO featured albums, they are from Chris Forsyth's Basic project and one from Flu, Paulo Scott & Marcelo Fornasier.

Having recently spoken again with Lee Fowler, founder of the Thomas Imposter label, thoughts of Japanese bands were swirling in my head so I thought I'd check out the new Cosmic Rock compilation of sixties Japanese bands. Very pleased I did - and it's my featured compilation this month. Alongside it you can hear tracks from new albums by Gentles, Stand High Patrol, The Joy Thieves and Rizomagic. We've also got new tracks from Robert Wotnot, Adrian Crowley and Foglights. among others, while there's another intriguing look-ahead to the Tian Qiyi & Jah Wobble album of Beatles covers. Oh, and there's also something by some band called The Fall.

This month's Peel Back... feature is slightly truncated. You'll have to tune into my FSK show this month if you want to hear the rest of it: not a cunning ruse to get you to listen to the other show, I promise you, just simple technological incompetence.

Here in the UK, the sun has been shining for ages but it's now raining new releases too so this months show is three hours long in order to mop up as many as possible!
LP of the month from hackedepicciotto is red hot and there's also some fireworks from Girls Chat Room and Sam Goku. We chill a little bit with Ed O'Brien, 7ebra, Georgian and welcome back Sunflower Thieves.
We look at the upcoming forecast with tracks heading our way from future releases by The Go, Railcard, Sharp Pins and Gilla Band.
All of this plus recent singles still shining in the sun from Girl & Girl, Sleep, Axel Boman, The 18th Parallel and MadMadMad. And another couple of rediscovered tracks from the proverbial forgotten box in the dusty corner of the One Big House archive from The Pioneers and Squire.

An hour from Rocker this month, featuring new tracks from The Simple Present; Cornershop ft.Bubbley Kaur; Gimic; Big Lightnin'; Pocket; The Darling Buds; The Guy Hamper Trio; Nathy SG; Joseph Tawadros; and Foglights.
There's electronica from Roman Flügel, and Grandbrothers remixed by Max Cooper.
The Reds, Pinks And Purples cover The Pet Shop Boys; and there's a track from an essential compilation collecting the early works of DC indie legends Velocity Girl.
This month's Rocker's Shellac Attack is a 1930 recording, one of the final recordings by one of the Jazz era's greatest cornet players, who died tragically young.
As well as little known acts, here's a little known fact: Saint Jude is the patron saint of the despairing, last recourse for hopeless cases and lost causes.

Another month another Bottom of the Pops on Dandelion radio.
This month we kick off with some Indonesian gabber harsh noise like only they can do and why not start with a track called "Radio Station IS Dead"
US based indie outfit Twisted Teens are back with their second release this year so I had to include a track from that, I'm also really enjoying The Carp out of the US too.
For me though, my real discovery this past month are Use Knife. Iraqi vocalist/percussionist Saif Al-Qaissy accompanied by Belgian musicians Kwinten Mordijck and Stef Heeren create something that really sounds different and exciting and even better their music sits in a genre free zone, somewhat like Indonesian outfit Senyawa. Both draw on contemporary electronic music but don't let that drown out original rhythms and patterns. I can't get enough of them.
It's been a long hot summer in Europe and a new Tell Edits re-edit of The Style Council's classic track turned up in my inbox so why not.
There's also new ones from Choncy, Billiam, Robyn Hitchcock, Jimothy Lacoste who isn't much of a fan of Tate Modern, Tricky and my favourite US hip hop artist of the last year, Tierra Whack.
A nice surprise this month, for me as a Triffids tragic, Evil Graham Lee aged 72 has released his debut album! Remember he also contributed the Steel Pedal on KLF's Chill Out album as well as working with the Black Eyed Susans, Rob Snarski, Paul Kelly & others. Legend.
I shouldn't go without mentioning the debut of London band Mary In The Junkyard who have been building a following through their association with the Windmill (Brixton) scene, probably my favourite London venue. The album is one of the best of the year and reminds me somewhat of Bar Italia's debut a few years back. I've featured a track off it and I highly recommend listening to the whole album it's very good.

This month's wild, wild wingding features the return of some all-time show favourites (Cornershop, People Like Us, Lee “Scratch” Perry RIP), new heat from established obsessions (Miss Kaninna, Captain Beep-Boop), plus new singles from Drifting Clouds, DETH and Mabel, AND the most millennial mashup potentially in existence. Didn’t get time to mention it in the show but the forthcoming My Guardian Angel vinyl album is going to be made from melted-down old records by disgraced musicians in a recycling project called Crushing Dreams For Good - read more at https://my-guardian-angel.neocities.org 

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.
