On my show this month:
Conkers in the caldron, naked dancing around the goat's head in the forest, throwing meringues at Mrs Miggins jealous puffin ... yes, X-Ray Moon announces with discernible glee, it's September. On this month's show he, as is his wont, plays the old and the new – mainly new. Some new offerings presented to us by Mooney are, for instance: SAUL WILLIAMS , The Three Napoleons, and Dramachine ; and some of the older tracks are from the likes of Brian Protheroe and Andi Sexgang . X-Ray Moon hopes everyone had a great summer (in his hemisphere) and will have a groovy fireworks and fireside Autumn ... and he hopes everyone enjoys his September show.

Biography:
Music both old and new. My tendency has always been to be attracted to the 'different', the other, the subversive… something that in one way or another challenges authority or orthodoxy and somehow attempts to shape wider society. Whether that be Punk, two-tone, Krautrock, Rai… etc.
In addition to that though I quite simply enjoy discovering the new, the different and the strange. Sounds, voices and atmospheres from around this small globe we call home are what excite me...
Over the years I have lived in many different countries, and wherever I was John Peel was the background, for many years, that aurally lit-up my adventures. He so perfectly reminded us that the quality, importance and worth of something has nothing to do with its 'popularity', and more to do with how it breaks down barriers and makes the complacent feel uncomfortable. How music at its best can be so much more than just a wallpaper-friendly pop song. So, then, eternal thanks to John Peel, who helped mould many of us…
Plus, thanks for listening. It is a great pleasure and joy to bring these shows to you; I hope you enjoy what you hear.
