On my show this month:
It's the eve of Dandelion's third decade in existence and your host is more grateful than ever to be able to play you this sort of racket, be it the debut single from Ding Ding Ding , a blissed-out dub fromĀ Drifting Clouds, infernal sonic chaos from Guttersnipe or a previously unheard session track from Fugazi (released for charidee, mate). The Blamers reinterpret a classic song about NYC to be about Sydney, Alice Skye dreams about getting out to country, while Buttress O'Kneel puts together a track that is now illegal in Queensland. See you next month for the 20th anniversary celebrations!

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.
