The Beatbox Saboteurs Show - February 2019
We are celebrating our first anniversary on Dandelion Radio and what better way of doing that than playing you a whole gamut of new and exciting music from around the globe.
This month we introduce you to Nat & The Noise Brigade, Kroşe, Mary May, One Friend, Inkblot Astronaut, Moonlight Waves, Karelia's Discord, Forest Crows and Kai Orion.
There's a wonderful track from Italy's Pinhdar, a thumper from Austria's Rache and even a mid-show mini-mix featuring Tangerine Dream, Arjen Schat, Mac Quayle, Future Sound of London and Orbital. Whispering Sons and Silvermouse lay some skin on you, I Am A Rocketship launch a sonic ray from their "Mind Graffiti" album and Cheerbleederz keep everyone up with their spiffing debut on Alcopop! Records.
There's another track from Analogue Electronic Whatever's "Since Year Dot" album and a beautiful finale provided by the Spanish band we adore, Uniforms.
We should also mention that pay a small tribute to the recently departed, June Whitfield. If you know us, then you'll know what that involves. Hope you enjoy the show!

Gareth Jones - February 2019
It's February and love is in the air. Well sod that. Here's 2 hours of absolutely no love songs!
Eclectic as usual, there's rap/hip-hop from The Good People and Afro-Latin sounds from Yanga. There's also experimental and arty electro from Cute Girls Doing Cute Things, Pas Musique, Grand Veymont and even an electro track from They Might Be Giants! Plus new garage-psyche-rock'n'roll tracks from The Chocolate Watch Band, Weird Omen and Snakerattlers. All this plus a brand new track by Glasgow lo-fi electro-punk-pop legends Bis too!
This month's 'Secret Songs from the Sixties' come from The Tornadoes and Lulu who will be singing in four languages! There are also some secret songs from the Seventies because I'm playing 3 tracks from a new Cherry Red 3-CD box set of Junk Shop Glam obscurities called 'All The Young Droogs' featuring tracks by Hustler, One Hit Wonders and Steve Elgin.
The 'Soundtracks of the Strange' come from the 1980 film 'Tusk' and a current puppet theatre play in Chicago called 'The Stranger and the Shadow'. And for the cover versions section, I've chosen covers of songs by artists who died in 2018. So there are songs originally by The Fall, Aretha Franklin, Chas Hodges (Chas & Dave) and Pete Shelley (The Buzzcocks).
So please be my valentine and join me for my February show.

Leo Gilbert - February 2019
For the second month in a row, Leo could not restrain himself. He simply had to overstuff the Dandelion Radio sofa with irresistible tunage. Four whole hours' worth.
Once again, Leo cast his ear trumpet across the planet, hauling in tunes from the Democratic Republic of Congo, Canada, Egypt, Italy, Germany, Ghana and a whole host of other countries besides. It's a global gorge-fest.
There will be names you know (Sharon van Etten), names you don't (wait and see), names that trip off the tongue (KOKOKO!) and those that twist your tongue into boy scout knots (SHXCXCHCXSH). There's a lot of dancey tunes and one or two nobody (that's nobody) would be able to tap their toes to. A few guitars are strummed and one or twenty three drums are banged.
In short, it's an unmissable celebration of all that is wonderful in the world of music in February 2019. Don't you dare not listen.

Mark Whitby - February 2019
This month, our insatiable quest for the best new music of 2019 takes us, among other places, to Uganda, with another fine release from the Nyege Nyege Tapes label, on to Mexico, where we find the new album from Regal 86, and back across the Atlantic to Senegal, for a timely Sourakata Koite reissue, stopping off on the way to take in tracks from a couple of live sets from France's La Souterraine and The Skiperdees, from the United States.
A couple of cracking new releases from the Armellodie label make an appearance - a new single from Yip Man of Scotland and an EP from Bloke Music which is a available in both download and spanner (yes, spanner) formats.
There are a number of appearances from established show favourites, with more from that EP from Bernays Propaganda and the new James Yorkston; we have a new single from The Pocket Gods and Macerator remixes Diane Marie Kloba with, not for the first time, spectacular results.
Our featured compilation comes from the Seagrave label and this month's Peel Back... features delves into the Peel Session archives to emerge with tracks first broadcast in February 1969, 1979 and 1989.
