At last! Our new Mixcloud show is now available to hear, through the link above. It's a second new format in as many shows. This show is dedicated to all the new music out there. In practice that means little from the mega bands and performers out there, and quite a lot from lesser known acts who deserve to be mega.

I know that when some people listen to music, they like it to be familiar and full of personal memories. So do I, and I always have a playlist of songs I always return to on the go. But all those familiar songs were once new, and the excitement you find in discovering an act setting out is still second to none.

On this show we cover everything from the smooth and classic songwriting of Emma Swift and Ron Sexsmith to the indie rock of The Lemonheads and The Last Dinner Party. We have an average love song that isn't and a 58 Second song that isn't even the shortest song on the show. Modern legends such as Chrissie Hynde and The Divine Comedy lie next to new kids on the block such as Adam Camm and Jacob Alon. It's a must hear for assistants, soft hearted scientists and lovers everywhere. And you could hear the next song you'll return to again and again.

Here's the playlist :

  1. Hey, Hi, Hello - Alison Goldfrapp
  2. Venus In Nadir - Peel Dream Magazine
  3. It's Only Love - Chrissie Hynde and Julian Lennon
  4. Average Love Song - Adam Camm
  5. Achilles - The Divine Comedy

  10. 58 Second Song - The Lemonheads
  11. You Suffer - Napalm Death (OK, not new but it's there for a reason.)
