Opened this show with the first - and eponymous - track from the new Aaron Space & His Terrestrial Underlings EP Grid, to be released in full on May 21st via Dig That Treasure Records! Very excited to be releasing this wonderful EP and to be working with Eli again after his contribution to the DTT compilation Elevate. The opening tune is available to stream right now via Bandcamp and the rest will follow on all streaming platforms on May 21st. Back to the radio show: I practised some label lovin' and span tunes from great indie labels I love, Orange Milk Records and Horn of Plenty. Following those were two songs by Coconut, a San Francisco (?) based band (?) that once existed (?) and then disappeared into thin air (?). I ripped these two mp3s from their Myspace approaching a decade ago and have since been unable to find any trace of Coconut online. If you're out there, Coconut, please let me know! Finally, closing the show was a great tune out by Anti-Palu, a zouglou group out of Côte d'Ivoire.

Zoomed into action with Merlin Nova's 'Fast Track', played a duo of tunes by Bristol-based Eva Lua, a beautiful Burmese track (I think the Anglicised name is Yee Yee Thant), gorgeous Ethio-jazz from Menelik Wossenachew, and a classic slice of DIY pop from the radio-unfriendly Holy Shit.

Kicked off with a "techno" cover of Sakamoto's 'Merry Christmas Mr. Lawrence', span a remix of another cover (Telex doing Roberto Cacciapaglia's 'My Time') and played yet another cover (60s folk-rock group Colours doing John Hartford's 'Gentle On My Mind') before a beautiful meditative piece by Zaidan Ibrahim and a track by avant-garde DIY project Amos And Sara. I closed the show with a fascinating song that was handed directly to me: Sindy Apple, the performer, approached me in the street in Hackney and gave me a piece of paper suggesting I buy her single from iTunes. So I did that immediately, and then I played it on the radio.
