The Stranglers	Everybody Loves You When You're Dead	La Folie	EMI	1981	R.I.P. Jet Black [Brian Duffy], age 84; December 8, 2022. "La Folie is the sixth studio album by English new wave band the Stranglers. It was released on 9 November 1981, through the EMI record label Liberty. The Stranglers had initially been the most commercially successful band of the punk/new wave period in Britain, but by 1981, their success had waned noticeably. La Folie was a conscious attempt to deliver a more commercial product. It is co-produced by the band with engineer Steve Churchyard and mixed by Tony Visconti. The band's record company, EMI, gave Visconti a brief to mix each song as a potential single. The album's French language title literally translates to "madness". In various interviews, the band related that this referred to "The Madness of Love" and that conceptually, each of the songs on the album was intended to explore a different kind or aspect of "love". The title track is based upon the story of Issei Sagawa... [Issei Sagawa (佐川一政, Sagawa Issei, 26 April 1949 – 24 November 2022) also known as Pang or The Kobe Cannibal, was a Japanese murderer, cannibal, and necrophile known for the killing of Renée Hartevelt in Paris in 1981 {June 11, 1981}. Sagawa murdered Hartevelt then mutilated, cannibalized, and performed necrophilia on her corpse over several days. Sagawa was arrested but released after two years of pre-trial detention upon being found legally insane and deported to Japan. Sagawa's post-release celebrity in Japan led to international publicity."]..."		0:00:19 (Pop-up)
Music behind DJ: Shirley Eikhard	End Of The Day "End Of The Day" by "Shirley Eikhard"	End Of The Day	Not On Label (Shirley Eikhard Self-released)	2001	R.I.P. Shirley Eikhard, on this day of December 15, 2022 at age 67 (due to cancer)."There was a 10-year gap in her recorded output, until 1987's Taking Charge, as Eikhard dealt with voice issues. Years later, she would describe her life as near its "nadir" as that decade ended, though she co-wrote a song, Kick Start My Heart, that landed on Alannah Myles's self-titled 1989 album. Commercial success soon came for Eikhard, thanks to one of a number of songs she cranked out in the mid-1980s while staying in Nashville. That song, Something to Talk About, was recorded by Bonnie Raitt for 1991's Luck of the Draw, which enabled the American singer-guitarist to cement a commercial comeback that had begun two years earlier, with Nick of Time. Raitt praised Eikhard as "one of the most talented women I've ever heard" at a Toronto concert that year. Something to Talk About was nominated for Record of the Year at the 1992 Grammys, with Raitt earning the award for Best Pop Vocal Performance for the song. Eikhard's first album after that bump in public profile — 1995's If I Had My Way — saw her return to familiar musical territory. Then three years later, she was recording for the legendary Blue Note jazz label. For Eikhard, it was not a jarring shift, having included Billie Holiday songs in her set list for years. Eikhard's most recent album was 2021's On My Way to You."		0:02:57 (Pop-up)
Music behind DJ: Shirley Eikhard	Detour Home "Detour Home" by "Shirley Eikhard"	End Of The Day	Not On Label (Shirley Eikhard Self-released)	2001	R.I.P. Shirley Eikhard, on this day of December 15, 2022 at age 67."Eikhard was born in Sackville, New Brunswick. Her mother, June Eikhard (born Marguerite Cameron in Moncton) began her musical career with her husband, Eikhard's late father, bassist Cecil Eikhard, in the 1950s when both parents were members of a small local band, the Trantramar Ramblers. Her mother, June, released her debut album, Canada's First Lady of the Fiddle, in 1959. The family relocated to Oshawa, Ontario, when Eikhard was in her early teens. She was given her first guitar at age 11, at age 12 she first performed on stage at a fiddling festival in Cobourg, Ontario. At age 13, following her debut performance in Cobourg, Eikhard successfully auditioned for the Songwriter's Workshop at the Toronto's 1969 Mariposa Folk Festival where she played alongside Joni Mitchell, Ian & Sylvia, and Bruce Cockburn. Two years later, when she was 15, her song "It Takes Time" was recorded by Anne Murray and became a hit in Canada." (She was also 15 when she "composed a guitar instrumental for Chet Atkins. Although she had been writing since she was quite young, at the urging of Hal David she went on to refine her composing skill. Her songs have since been [written for, and/or,] recorded by such artists as Bonnie Raitt, Anne Murray, Rita Coolidge, Cher & others." /// "End of the Day Review by Dave Nathan [Excerpt] - This is a one-woman music show from soup to nuts. Canadian Shirley Eikhard composed and arranged all material, performs on a variety of instruments (electronic and acoustic), recorded the album in her home studio, and produced the album. Much is made of her country music beginnings, but she now makes contemporary jazz her home. This album departs from previous efforts which focused on her singing ability. Here she clearly wanted to spotlight her instrumental capacity. She plays, among other things, guitar, saxophone, harmonica, bass, and apparently the synthesizer to create background strings. The use of the latter on "End of the Day" to prop up her harmonica results in a sumptuous, textured sound which seems to be the hallmark of many of the tracks on the set."		0:07:09 (Pop-up)
SCUDFM	Hex On My Sex "Hex On My Sex" by "SCUDFM"	INNIT	Dash The Henge	2022	If Meatraffle is the Marxist/Leninist Big Brother house band then SCUDFM are the naughty Baby Socialist Anarchists who never pay to get in. SCUD play songs about Electronic Components, House Cleaning, the 2nd 'Ndrangheta War, Boats, Meatraffles, Allergies, Tactical Ballistic Nuclear Missiles plus serious subjects like Trade Unionism and Women's Rights. SCUDFM bring the right kind of catchy punk energy, their urgency jolting us awake from the collective brain fog in a moment of re-engaging in community life with newfound resilience. Most importantly, as a wider initiative, they're posing the right questions by challenging the cultural impasse with a pointedly iconoclastic attitude, avoiding the easy targets like some far-right boogeyman of the mainstream left and dealing with more nuanced internal problematics instead.		0:11:23 (Pop-up)
Ideal Host	The Conflict "The Conflict" by "Ideal Host"	The Conflict Single	Self Released	2022	Ideal Host is is the new musical project of former Slowcoaches members Heather Perkins and Sean Hughes. he band are planning to release their debut album in early 2023 and will be playing a string of live dates too. “I had reached a point where I felt restricted creatively, because I was often relying on other people to interpret my ideas,” Heather explains further. “Learning the skills I need to translate what is in my head into something tangible has been a real revelation. De-mystifying the basics of recording and having the option to experiment with both analogue and digital approaches has given me a much broader palette to work from. Sean and I have enjoyed taking a slower, more considered approach to making music this time.”		0:14:43 (Pop-up)
Modern Woman	Ford "Ford" by "Modern Woman"	Ford Single	End Of The Road Records	2022	“‘Ford’ has been one of the oldest songs in our repertoire.”, says singer and guitarist Sophie Harris, “I wrote the bassline loop for it a long time ago, one day when I only had a bass to hand. I structured the song and added guitar and simple vocal. I wanted to give it a raw and slightly sinister feel to it. We can spend an incredibly long time working a song in our practise space before we ever play it live, so we wanted to make sure that energy resonated through the recording...Lyrically, it is about a girl who borrows her brother’s Ford and drives it around. For Juan’s vocals towards the end of the song, I went with a William Burroughs-esque cut up technique and collected different car-related writings, chopped them up and reformed them.”		0:17:42 (Pop-up)
Shelf Lives	Skirts and Salads "Skirts and Salads" by "Shelf Lives"	Skirts and Salads Single	Not Sorry Mom Records	2022	Taking hits at gender stereotypes while reclaiming all the best bits for ourselves, it’s simultaneously a take down and a celebration of femininity. “It's written and delivered in a tongue in cheek manner and we thought it would be interesting incorporating chauvinistic language but using it to our advantage in a way; referring specifically to the line "I like/want my girls like that”, Sabrina said, “we are highlighting how annoying it is, as well as how deeply rooted these ideas and language are in our society and....sub-consciousness."		0:21:05 (Pop-up)
Band Spectra, The Anchoress	Human Reciprocator	Human Reciprocator Single	Band Spectra	2022	"Human Reciprocator’ is a politically-charged collaboration between Band Spectra (aka disabled musician Robert Manning) and critically-acclaimed Welsh multi-instrumentalist and producer The Anchoress (aka Catherine Anne Davies).Robert says: "Band Spectra began as a therapeutic endeavour following a passing recommendation by a neuropsychologist to use music as an aid to try to combat a decline in my health as a result of Multiple Sclerosis. Recognising the frustrating lack of visibility and significant barriers faced by disabled musicians within the music industry and with the help of Arts Council funding, I made an album of remote collaborations during a challenging period of shielding, with the intention of celebrating and raising awareness of disability and diversity. ‘Human Reciprocator’, the first song written for the album, started as a primitive idea: a 909 motorik beat; a driving Moog bassline and Leo Abraham’s cacophonous experimental guitar saw the tentative beginnings of what (18 months later) translated into the perfect hostile foundation for Catherine's powerful and veracious political lyrics." Holy fuck, this is amazing.		0:23:40 (Pop-up)

Iggy Pop	The Passenger "The Passenger" by "Iggy Pop"	Lust For Life	RCA	1977	On May 15, 2022, Ricky Gardiner, Scottish rock guitarist (David Bowie - Low; Iggy Pop - Lust for Life), and composer, dies at 73. "Gardiner joined his first band, the Vostoks, at school in 1962. Next there were the Kingbees and the System, with whom he formed Beggars Opera in 1969. He played in his own outfit with this band, Beggars Opera, and also with friends David Bowie and Iggy Pop. For Bowie he played lead guitar on the 1977 album Low. For Pop he worked on his album Lust for Life the same year: the issue included "The Passenger", regarded as one of Pop's best songs, for which Gardiner composed the music. Bowie biographer David Buckley described it as being "possessed with one of the greatest riffs of all time". On 19 October 1977, Gardiner was selected by Tony Visconti to play guitar for the pre-recorded backing of Bowie's performance on "Heroes" on the BBC's Top of the Pops. The recording was made at Good Earth Studios in Soho, London with Bowie, Visconti, and pianist Sean Mayes. Gardiner emulated Robert Fripp's guitar sound by using feedback as he had not realised an EBow had been used: "I was asked to reproduce Robert Fripp's line", he told Stephen Dalton in 2001, "I did not realise at the time that he [Fripp] had used an EBow. I did my best using feedback alone. As we went through the song, my amplifier started dying. As the song finished, so did the amp.". From the 1970s, Gardiner played and composed in a variety of music styles, including ambient, classical, and rock. In 2017, photographs Gardiner took at the Château d'Hérouville, during the making of David Bowie's Low album in 1977, were included in a hardcover book that accompanied the vinyl and CD box set of A New Career in a New Town (1977–1982), alongside photographs by Anton Corbijn, Helmut Newton, Andrew Kent, Steve Shapiro, Duffy, and others. Gardiner said that he suffered from electromagnetic hypersensitivity, which he believed he contracted through exposure to high levels of computer radiation and magnetic fields. Gardiner died on 13 May 2022, aged 73, after a long battle with Parkinson's disease."		0:36:36 (Pop-up)
Teenage Head	You're Tearin' Me Apart	Teenage Head	Warner	1979	"Canadian guitarist from Hamilton, Ontario, best known for his work in punk band Teenage Head. Lewis was born in Hamilton on May 21, 1957. He was found dead at his Hamilton apartment in August 2022, age 65." "On August 7, 2022, original member Gord Lewis was found murdered in his home. His son Jonathan Lewis was arrested shortly after the crime and charged with second-degree murder. Teenage Head said the band will continue with performances following Lewis' murder, as such was his wish" 'You're Tearing Me Apart' is from the debut 1979 album by Hamilton's Teenage Head. "Alright Louie!" shouts out Frankie Venom (née Frankie Kerr) before Gord Lewis' guitar solo in this one.		0:41:12 (Pop-up)
Dead Kennedys	Dead End "Dead End" by "Dead Kennedys"	Plastic Surgery Disasters	Alternative Tentacles Records	1982	Darren Eric Henley, American musician better known as D.H. Peligro, died at 63 years old on Oct 28, 2022. "D. H. Peligro, was an American punk rock musician, most commonly known as the drummer for The Dead Kennedys along with a brief stint as the drummer for Red Hot Chili Peppers. Peligro also played briefly with The Hellations, Jungle Studs, Nailbomb, The Feederz, Lock-Up, The Two Free Stooges and SSI. Peligro was the frontman for his band called Peligro (Spanish for "Danger") and has released three albums: Peligro (released in 1995 on Biafra's Alternative Tentacles record label, but deleted from the catalog in 2001), Welcome to America and Sum of Our Surroundings, which won Rock Album of the Year from the American Independent Music Awards. Peligro's sound is known to be an eclectic combination of punk, reggae, funk and heavy metal. D. H. Peligro has also fronted the bands Reverend Jones and the Cool Aid Choir and Al Sharpton's Hair and the Hellions. He appears as an interview subject in the 2003 documentary Afro-Punk. In 2020, Peligro recorded the song "Power is Taken" with Moby, which was also included in the album All Visible Objects."		0:43:59 (Pop-up)

Belle and Sebastian	The Fox In The Snow	If You're Feeling Sinister	Matador	1997	After the release of their debut album Tigermilk, Belle and Sebastian were approached by a number of record labels. They signed with the independent label Jeepster Records in the interests of staying independent creatively. Jeepster was willing to accept some of the group's other demands, such as releasing no singles, not doing press or promotional events, and not appearing in promotional materials. The band began releasing the new material, written by Murdoch, after signing with Jeepster. The album took five days to record and three to mix, slightly longer than Tigermilk. It was recorded in the same studio as Tigermilk and engineer Tony Doogan worked with the band's previous engineer to maintain a similar recording style. Band member Sarah Martin, who had recently joined the band at this point, likened Tigermilk and If You're Feeling Sinister to The Beatles' albums Rubber Soul and Revolver in the sense that the two albums were recorded quickly after one another. This album is rightly hailed as one of the masterpieces of the 90's.		1:50:50 (Pop-up)

POINT. Blue Hotel was the 5th studio album from the British-based pop band led by American songwriter & record producer Kenny Young. This is some slammin' sexy Foxy disco!		1:54:47 (Pop-up)
The Cure	Foxy Lady "Foxy Lady" by "The Cure"	Three Imaginary Boys	Fiction Records	1979	Three Imaginary Boys was released on 11 May 1979 by record label Fiction. The record company decided which songs were put on the album, as well as the cover artwork, without Robert Smith's consent. For all Cure albums since, Smith has ensured that he is given complete creative control over the final product before it goes on sale. The "Foxy Lady" soundcheck, with vocals sung by Michael Dempsey, was not supposed to be on the album, and was removed for the American release. Smith has stated that "songs like 'Object' and 'World War' and our cover of 'Foxy Lady' were Chris Parry's choice".		1:58:40 (Pop-up)
Las Vulpes	Me Gusta Ser Un Zorra "Me Gusta Ser Un Zorra" by "Las Vulpes"	Barbarela 83 En Vivo	Punkaway	2012	Vulpess (latin name for fox, and this a slang name for "whore") was the first punk female band in the Basque Country (Spain), formed in 1982 by four girls between 17 and 21 years old. They became famous the following year when they appeared on TV programme Caja de Ritmos, performing their song "Me Gusta Ser una Zorra" ("I Like Being a Slut"). The song is a cover of The Stooges song "I Wanna Be Your Dog" with adapted Spanish lyrics. Many viewers complained about their performance, which led to a media scandal and court case. To capitalise on the attention, the song was recorded and released as a single by Dos Rombos records,which went on to sell 12000 copies. However, legal difficulties created problems for the group on their promotional tour. The band dissolved in 1983 although they reformed briefly in 1985 to play some gigs.		2:01:03 (Pop-up)
Music behind DJ: A Certain Ratio	The Fox "The Fox" by "A Certain Ratio"	To Each	Mute	1981	To Each... is the second album and debut LP by English band A Certain Ratio, released in 1981 by record label Factory. It is sometimes considered the band's official first album. It was produced by A Certain Ratio and Martin Hannett. To Each... has been seen in a more negative light by critics in comparison to the band's early music. AllMusic wrote that, with the album, "the group dropped much of the bleak dance-punk of early material in place of what sounds like a shallow attempt to seize the baton dropped by gloom giants Joy Division after the death of Ian Curtis", calling the record "a bit too mired in its own misery to make an impression on listeners."		2:04:01 (Pop-up)
The Sadies	Riverview Fog "Riverview Fog" by "The Sadies"	Northern Passages	Dine Alone Records	2017	A song that Dallas Good (d.

The psych-folk flourishes on tracks such as “Riverview Fog” are no mere homage; this is the sound of our inscrutable world, and how we manage to survive in it."		2:13:26 (Pop-up)
Rick White	Message To Dallas "Message To Dallas" by "Rick White"	Message to Dallas (Feb.2022)	Rick White Archive / Bandcamp	2022	From Rick White: "Shortly after the shockingly sad news of his passing on February 17th, I really felt the need to write a song for Dallas. He wrote a beautiful tune about our friendship called RIVERVIEW FOG for the Sadies 2017 album "Northern Passages". It makes me cry every time i hear it. It focused on our close brotherhood always remaining strong even though we hadn't been in touch for quite awhile due mostly to my anxiety issues and hermit like seclusion. Before i came up with anything new, i started strumming his song and altering the words with one's from my perspective. His lyrics were filled with symbolic bits from our past, songs titles and moments, I tried to make my version similar. It all came together quite naturally and i'm pleased with how it turned out. I think (hope) it is a fitting tribute to the loving relationship we shared over the years. Love you brother. I recorded a demo version of the song with just guitar and vocal and have decided to just share it like this to anyone who may be interested. It's free to download if you like, please don't pay for it. Music and melody written by Dallas Good. Photo by Amanda Schenk. Lyrics: "Hello old friend i hope i didn't disappoint you It's been so long since the last time that i saw you I thought we would always be the same, but suddenly that changed. So many times i thought of younger me and you Strumming through a smoky haze, i know you missed it too But our lives just simply went off different ways, life is so strange. And now you're gone into the great beyond While i sit here just tryna write you one more song. Though i was far away you'd call each month or two Sometimes we'd talk, sometimes i wouldn't get back to you I shouldn't have believed that silly rhyme, no curse of time. I listened to our old records yesterday I wish that we could once again just sing and play But i know that's not possible today All our favourite colours now are grey, now are grey. Long gone are the days, they've all passed away, oh yeah." credits released February 27, 2022" Rick White Archive (Bandcamp) / Message to Dallas (Feb.2022)		2:16:14 (Pop-up)
The Clean	Getting Older "Getting Older" by "The Clean"	Anthology	Flying Nun Records / Merge	1982 / 2002	"Hamish Kilgour (born March 17, 1957 – died November or December 2022) was a New Zealand drummer, percussionist, guitarist, singer, and songwriter. Brother of David Kilgour." Backing Vocals, Drum [1 drum] – Chris Knox // Bass, Viola, Organ, Trumpet – Robert Scottt // Drums, Vocals, Maracas – Hamish Kilgour // Engineer – Doug Hood // Recorded By [Teac] – Chris Knox // Vocals, Guitar – David Auld Kilgour "Hamish Kilgour, a founding member of the New Zealand band the Clean, who was celebrated among fans of underground music for his propulsive drumming and his countercultural approach to life, has died. He was 65. He was found dead in Christchurch, New Zealand, on Monday, 10 days after being reported missing, the police there said. His death was referred to the coroner’s office. A central figure in the crop of freewheeling New Zealand musicians on the independent label Flying Nun that came to be called the “Dunedin sound,” Mr. Kilgour spent four decades as a musician, singing and playing percussion and later the guitar. He eventually played with more than 100 bands, including the Great Unwashed, the Sundae Painters and Monsterland, and lived for almost 30 years in New York, where he formed the band the Mad Scene. He also had a secondary passion for painting: He produced hundreds if not thousands of frank, idiosyncratic pictures, many of which were repurposed as album cover art. A deceptively powerful drummer, Mr. Kilgour might start a song in ramshackle fashion, then build to a thunderous conclusion. He had early on been inspired by Moe Tucker’s single snare on live recordings by the Velvet Underground. “I thought, that’s kind of magical and that’s possible — I could do that,” he said in 2012. Ms. Tucker’s minimalist, driving style and her enthusiasm for the power of the tambourine later colored his own playing."		2:18:51 (Pop-up)
The Jazz Butcher	Time "Time" by "The Jazz Butcher"	The Highest In The Land	Tapete Records	2022	"Patrick Huntrods (20 December 1957 – 5 October 2021), known as Pat Fish, was an English musician best known for his work as a member of the band The Jazz Butcher. (The name "Jazz Butcher" has been applied ambiguously both to Fish and the whole band.)" // "While he was making his final album as the Jazz Butcher, Pat Fish knew he was going to die. According to people close to him, he’d managed to outrace cancer, but decades of pint-hoisting good times were catching up with him. He passed away last October at age 64. But one remarkable thing about The Highest in the Land is how little morbidity encumbers it. On the contrary, it positively brims with life. Even when Fish stares down death in the dub-rock countdown “Time,” it’s with the same old gleam in his eye and dodge in his step. “Fishy go to Heaven, get along, get along,” he drawls, rakish and sarcastic, rushing toward “a pit of Council lime.” But most of the other lyrics are acid pronouncements tangled in exuberant wordplay. The verses excoriate lithium mining and privatized jails, but the pre-choruses are stuffed with nearly nonsense lists of shapely words: luminous, leguminous, salubrious, lugubrious. Part giddy fuck-you-I’m-out to an England he’d suffered from Thatcher to Brexit, part psychedelic experience with a rhyming dictionary, “Time” is all Fish. In other words, this cockeyed memento mori is just another great Butch tune on another great Butch record: irascible, inscrutable, delectable, irreducible."		2:23:10 (Pop-up)
Low	Disappearing "Disappearing" by "Low"	HEY WHAT	Sub Pop	2021	"Hey What (stylized in all uppercase) is the 13th full-length album by Minnesota-based duo Low, released on September 10, 2021, through Sub Pop. It is their third recording in a row produced by BJ Burton, building on the distorted sound of the band's previous album Double Negative (2018). Burton and Hey What were nominated in the Best Engineered Album, Non-Classical category at the 64th Annual Grammy Awards. It was their first album as a duo of Alan Sparhawk and Mimi Parker, all earlier Low albums being recorded as a trio, and the final album to feature Parker, who died on November 5, 2022."		2:28:36 (Pop-up)

Public Body	Break From Life "Break From Life" by "Public Body"	Break From Life/35s & 40s	Fatcat Records	2022	Ahead of the release of their debut album next year, Brighton’s Public Body are sharing new track ‘Break From Life’. “‘Break From Life’ is about taking a lackadaisical approach to life, nothing is really happening and you enter into an idle state,” the band’s Seb Gilmore explains. “Realising that you’ve run down the clock by taking a back seat the whole time and not applying yourself. This realisation hits you whilst doom scrolling on your phone, you haven’t moved position in a while and you can feel your whole body aching to be moved, but still there isn’t even motivation to do that. This song was written/recorded/mixed at home using an old 70’s Woolworths amp and 80’s Yamaha drum machine.”		2:46:04 (Pop-up)
DEADLETTER	Binge "Binge" by "DEADLETTER"	Binge Single	So Recordings	2022	“’Binge’ was written in no more than 25 minutes during rehearsals for a tour in January,” singer Zac Lawrence explains. “Hearing the word ‘Binge’, we may initially be drawn to a very specific image or thought of a person or a habit, however when we take a closer look at society it can be realised that bingeing is inherent within our behaviour as human beings,” he continues. “Whether it be something as mundane as collecting stamps, or devotion of your existence to a deity, we are all bingers through and through and, ultimately, life is one long binge.”		2:49:19 (Pop-up)
Low Hummer	Panic Calls "Panic Calls" by "Low Hummer"	Panic Calls Single	Dance To The Radio	2022	Hull, UK-based post-punk act Low Hummer are Daniel, Aimee, Steph, Jack, John, and Joe. Their album Modern Tricks For Living was released last year...this new single evokes the anxious and jittery despair of someone at the end of their rope with an uncanny psychological realism. The band explains that the song references the futility of mental health support by imitating the generic, automated answer machines of crisis lines.		2:52:36 (Pop-up)
The Queen's Head	Teach Me To Dance	Teach Me To Dance Single	The Queen's Head	2022	South London newcomers The Queen’s Head have shared a new single, ‘Teach Me To Dance’. Speaking about the track, the band explain: “At the heart of ‘Teach Me To Dance’ is a power-dynamic. The title doesn’t end with a question mark: it is a command, with one sorry soul (us, unfortunately) instructing another (a front-row audience member, a would-be lover, literally anybody) to provide them with choreographic know-how. It is pathetic, really, to request the teaching of something as natural as moving to a rhythm: a dance should grow, like a flower, no matter how ugly, away from the dirt and into the sky. A command? Yes. Desperation? Most certainly.”		2:55:23 (Pop-up)

	9:29pm DJ Babs: We were very happy for the Cravats reference for sure! Ed has a TON of hilarious stories!!
	9:32pm ultradamno: This would make a great Popeye's commercial
	9:36pm ultradamno: It's funny these two things are both coming up, because I recall when the lockdown happened by the fact The Cravats did a live session on Marc Riley's show right before, it's like the last of the before times...
	9:38pm Derek Westerholm: Ah... "The before times"... Bet it was a great session though. Marc Riley's show is fantastic!
	9:39pm ultradamno: It's a shame BBC did away with the music show app, it made listening to it a lot easier.
	9:41pm ultradamno: I love the movie Spider Baby
	9:43pm DJ Nico: Great interview ♥️
	9:43pm DJ Blush: You're good at this, B

	9:45pm DJ Blush: Hey T :)
	9:51pm Derek Westerholm: Agreed, so exciting! Babs is an excellent interviewer!
	9:53pm DJ Blush: Haven't heard this one in a while.
	9:55pm DJ Babs: Aww thanks guys! I do like doing interviews that's for sure. It's really fun. And this is probably my fave B&S song...perfect for winter!!!
	9:56pm ultradamno: Oh, that Cravats show in on the you tubes www.youtube.com...
	🏝 9:58pm Scott67: Fox song takes me back to my pre-pubescent impure thoughts.
	9:58pm Derek Westerholm: Fantastic! I'll have to check out the Cravats Sesh.
	10:01pm Derek Westerholm: Speaking of, Marc Riley has taken over from John Peel in regards of Wedding Present sessions galore... There are already 4 compilation albums of sessions!!! 3 collections & 1 live set! Weddoes did more Peel Sessions than any other band, I believe. Looks like Riley is ensuring the radio-session streak continues into the 10's and 20's...
	10:02pm DJ Babs: The video for that Fox tune is REEEEDICULOUSLY awesome. Its' SO 70's. She's freaking gorgeous!!!
	10:02pm ultradamno: I can't really think of a lady as being foxy until I see her eat a live hen
	10:04pm DJ Babs: hahaha!
	10:06pm v-dawg: Yeah! I never heard the live version of <<me gusta ser una zorra>> before.
	10:09pm ultradamno: Were people offended by the implication of them being trans-canines?
	10:11pm v-dawg: If rock radikal vasco interests you, watch the documentary "Salda badago".
	10:15pm DJ Babs: Hey V-Dog! Thank you for the tip! I will definitely look that up!
	10:20pm DJ Nico: These two songs 💔
	10:22pm DJ Babs: I know...it does make us a little misty here. The holidays are a time to celebrate but it also reminds us of those who aren't there to be with us...and to remember them. ❤️
	10:22pm Derek Westerholm: Nico, I know, right? I've been teary eyed a few times this week listening to them back-to-back.
	10:22pm ultradamno: Well, the year started with Bruce Anderson of MX-80 Sound dying, which for me was the worst, but the year really pulled out all the stops to top it.
	10:25pm DJ Babs: I think it will get harder for us...as many of us are at "a certain age" where our musical heroes are leaving us...
	10:26pm gsdoubleu: @djbabs too true
	10:27pm DJ Babs: This is a fantaaaaastic tune. Derek digs up the gems!!!
	10:28pm gsdoubleu: this is really groovy
	🏝 10:28pm Scott67: Like a smooth The The!
	10:29pm DJ Nico: Derek, the two songs were so beautiful, drenched in love — Dallas and Rick such sweet souls.
	10:30pm DJ Babs: ❤️ agreed. Dallas' leaving is a huge loss to our scene...and everywhere.
	10:30pm gsdoubleu: yeah he was a giant
	10:32pm DJ Babs: This Low song also hits me in the feels! Fear not tho we will make up for it next week as it's ALL FESTIVE HOLIDAY MUSIC of the non annoying kind!!!
	10:33pm Derek Westerholm: Dallas was a truly amazing musician and individual.
	10:33pm v-dawg: @dj babs Your welcome. The film is in basque and spanish. You may need to search for subtitles.
	10:34pm Derek Westerholm: Also, it must be noted that Rick White is very much alive. He recorded a wonderful tribute album this year to The Sadies.
	10:34pm DJ Babs: Thanks V-Dawg! Or I can try and follow along in my rudimentary spanish!!!
	10:37pm ultradamno: The on the nose MX-80 song for this would likely be Why Are We Here?
	10:38pm Derek Westerholm: I will have to investigate MX-80 Sound. Sadly, I am not familiar...
	10:40pm ultradamno: They were, and I do not say this lightly, the best band signed to Ralph Records.
	10:43pm ultradamno: A video of them on Bloomington TV early on twitter.com...
	10:45pm ultradamno: mx80sound.com
	10:48pm Derek Westerholm: Ultra, thanks for that!!
	10:49pm ultradamno: Creamo's tribute show www.wfmu.org...
	10:49pm Derek Westerholm: We're back into more upbeat musical territory here, again...!

The Stranglers	Everybody Loves You When You're Dead	La Folie	EMI	1981	R.I.P. Jet Black [Brian Duffy], age 84; December 8, 2022. "La Folie is the sixth studio album by English new wave band the Stranglers. It was released on 9 November 1981, through the EMI record label Liberty. The Stranglers had initially been the most commercially successful band of the punk/new wave period in Britain, but by 1981, their success had waned noticeably. La Folie was a conscious attempt to deliver a more commercial product. It is co-produced by the band with engineer Steve Churchyard and mixed by Tony Visconti. The band's record company, EMI, gave Visconti a brief to mix each song as a potential single. The album's French language title literally translates to "madness". In various interviews, the band related that this referred to "The Madness of Love" and that conceptually, each of the songs on the album was intended to explore a different kind or aspect of "love". The title track is based upon the story of Issei Sagawa... [Issei Sagawa (佐川一政, Sagawa Issei, 26 April 1949 – 24 November 2022) also known as Pang or The Kobe Cannibal, was a Japanese murderer, cannibal, and necrophile known for the killing of Renée Hartevelt in Paris in 1981 {June 11, 1981}. Sagawa murdered Hartevelt then mutilated, cannibalized, and performed necrophilia on her corpse over several days. Sagawa was arrested but released after two years of pre-trial detention upon being found legally insane and deported to Japan. Sagawa's post-release celebrity in Japan led to international publicity."]..."		0:00:19 (Pop-up)
Music behind DJ: Shirley Eikhard	End Of The Day "End Of The Day" by "Shirley Eikhard"	End Of The Day	Not On Label (Shirley Eikhard Self-released)	2001	R.I.P. Shirley Eikhard, on this day of December 15, 2022 at age 67 (due to cancer)."There was a 10-year gap in her recorded output, until 1987's Taking Charge, as Eikhard dealt with voice issues. Years later, she would describe her life as near its "nadir" as that decade ended, though she co-wrote a song, Kick Start My Heart, that landed on Alannah Myles's self-titled 1989 album. Commercial success soon came for Eikhard, thanks to one of a number of songs she cranked out in the mid-1980s while staying in Nashville. That song, Something to Talk About, was recorded by Bonnie Raitt for 1991's Luck of the Draw, which enabled the American singer-guitarist to cement a commercial comeback that had begun two years earlier, with Nick of Time. Raitt praised Eikhard as "one of the most talented women I've ever heard" at a Toronto concert that year. Something to Talk About was nominated for Record of the Year at the 1992 Grammys, with Raitt earning the award for Best Pop Vocal Performance for the song. Eikhard's first album after that bump in public profile — 1995's If I Had My Way — saw her return to familiar musical territory. Then three years later, she was recording for the legendary Blue Note jazz label. For Eikhard, it was not a jarring shift, having included Billie Holiday songs in her set list for years. Eikhard's most recent album was 2021's On My Way to You."		0:02:57 (Pop-up)
Music behind DJ: Shirley Eikhard	Detour Home "Detour Home" by "Shirley Eikhard"	End Of The Day	Not On Label (Shirley Eikhard Self-released)	2001	R.I.P. Shirley Eikhard, on this day of December 15, 2022 at age 67."Eikhard was born in Sackville, New Brunswick. Her mother, June Eikhard (born Marguerite Cameron in Moncton) began her musical career with her husband, Eikhard's late father, bassist Cecil Eikhard, in the 1950s when both parents were members of a small local band, the Trantramar Ramblers. Her mother, June, released her debut album, Canada's First Lady of the Fiddle, in 1959. The family relocated to Oshawa, Ontario, when Eikhard was in her early teens. She was given her first guitar at age 11, at age 12 she first performed on stage at a fiddling festival in Cobourg, Ontario. At age 13, following her debut performance in Cobourg, Eikhard successfully auditioned for the Songwriter's Workshop at the Toronto's 1969 Mariposa Folk Festival where she played alongside Joni Mitchell, Ian & Sylvia, and Bruce Cockburn. Two years later, when she was 15, her song "It Takes Time" was recorded by Anne Murray and became a hit in Canada." (She was also 15 when she "composed a guitar instrumental for Chet Atkins. Although she had been writing since she was quite young, at the urging of Hal David she went on to refine her composing skill. Her songs have since been [written for, and/or,] recorded by such artists as Bonnie Raitt, Anne Murray, Rita Coolidge, Cher & others." /// "End of the Day Review by Dave Nathan [Excerpt] - This is a one-woman music show from soup to nuts. Canadian Shirley Eikhard composed and arranged all material, performs on a variety of instruments (electronic and acoustic), recorded the album in her home studio, and produced the album. Much is made of her country music beginnings, but she now makes contemporary jazz her home. This album departs from previous efforts which focused on her singing ability. Here she clearly wanted to spotlight her instrumental capacity. She plays, among other things, guitar, saxophone, harmonica, bass, and apparently the synthesizer to create background strings. The use of the latter on "End of the Day" to prop up her harmonica results in a sumptuous, textured sound which seems to be the hallmark of many of the tracks on the set."		0:07:09 (Pop-up)
SCUDFM	Hex On My Sex "Hex On My Sex" by "SCUDFM"	INNIT	Dash The Henge	2022	If Meatraffle is the Marxist/Leninist Big Brother house band then SCUDFM are the naughty Baby Socialist Anarchists who never pay to get in. SCUD play songs about Electronic Components, House Cleaning, the 2nd 'Ndrangheta War, Boats, Meatraffles, Allergies, Tactical Ballistic Nuclear Missiles plus serious subjects like Trade Unionism and Women's Rights. SCUDFM bring the right kind of catchy punk energy, their urgency jolting us awake from the collective brain fog in a moment of re-engaging in community life with newfound resilience. Most importantly, as a wider initiative, they're posing the right questions by challenging the cultural impasse with a pointedly iconoclastic attitude, avoiding the easy targets like some far-right boogeyman of the mainstream left and dealing with more nuanced internal problematics instead.		0:11:23 (Pop-up)
Ideal Host	The Conflict "The Conflict" by "Ideal Host"	The Conflict Single	Self Released	2022	Ideal Host is is the new musical project of former Slowcoaches members Heather Perkins and Sean Hughes. he band are planning to release their debut album in early 2023 and will be playing a string of live dates too. “I had reached a point where I felt restricted creatively, because I was often relying on other people to interpret my ideas,” Heather explains further. “Learning the skills I need to translate what is in my head into something tangible has been a real revelation. De-mystifying the basics of recording and having the option to experiment with both analogue and digital approaches has given me a much broader palette to work from. Sean and I have enjoyed taking a slower, more considered approach to making music this time.”		0:14:43 (Pop-up)
Modern Woman	Ford "Ford" by "Modern Woman"	Ford Single	End Of The Road Records	2022	“‘Ford’ has been one of the oldest songs in our repertoire.”, says singer and guitarist Sophie Harris, “I wrote the bassline loop for it a long time ago, one day when I only had a bass to hand. I structured the song and added guitar and simple vocal. I wanted to give it a raw and slightly sinister feel to it. We can spend an incredibly long time working a song in our practise space before we ever play it live, so we wanted to make sure that energy resonated through the recording...Lyrically, it is about a girl who borrows her brother’s Ford and drives it around. For Juan’s vocals towards the end of the song, I went with a William Burroughs-esque cut up technique and collected different car-related writings, chopped them up and reformed them.”		0:17:42 (Pop-up)
Shelf Lives	Skirts and Salads "Skirts and Salads" by "Shelf Lives"	Skirts and Salads Single	Not Sorry Mom Records	2022	Taking hits at gender stereotypes while reclaiming all the best bits for ourselves, it’s simultaneously a take down and a celebration of femininity. “It's written and delivered in a tongue in cheek manner and we thought it would be interesting incorporating chauvinistic language but using it to our advantage in a way; referring specifically to the line "I like/want my girls like that”, Sabrina said, “we are highlighting how annoying it is, as well as how deeply rooted these ideas and language are in our society and....sub-consciousness."		0:21:05 (Pop-up)
Band Spectra, The Anchoress	Human Reciprocator	Human Reciprocator Single	Band Spectra	2022	"Human Reciprocator’ is a politically-charged collaboration between Band Spectra (aka disabled musician Robert Manning) and critically-acclaimed Welsh multi-instrumentalist and producer The Anchoress (aka Catherine Anne Davies).Robert says: "Band Spectra began as a therapeutic endeavour following a passing recommendation by a neuropsychologist to use music as an aid to try to combat a decline in my health as a result of Multiple Sclerosis. Recognising the frustrating lack of visibility and significant barriers faced by disabled musicians within the music industry and with the help of Arts Council funding, I made an album of remote collaborations during a challenging period of shielding, with the intention of celebrating and raising awareness of disability and diversity. ‘Human Reciprocator’, the first song written for the album, started as a primitive idea: a 909 motorik beat; a driving Moog bassline and Leo Abraham’s cacophonous experimental guitar saw the tentative beginnings of what (18 months later) translated into the perfect hostile foundation for Catherine's powerful and veracious political lyrics." Holy fuck, this is amazing.		0:23:40 (Pop-up)

Iggy Pop	The Passenger "The Passenger" by "Iggy Pop"	Lust For Life	RCA	1977	On May 15, 2022, Ricky Gardiner, Scottish rock guitarist (David Bowie - Low; Iggy Pop - Lust for Life), and composer, dies at 73. "Gardiner joined his first band, the Vostoks, at school in 1962. Next there were the Kingbees and the System, with whom he formed Beggars Opera in 1969. He played in his own outfit with this band, Beggars Opera, and also with friends David Bowie and Iggy Pop. For Bowie he played lead guitar on the 1977 album Low. For Pop he worked on his album Lust for Life the same year: the issue included "The Passenger", regarded as one of Pop's best songs, for which Gardiner composed the music. Bowie biographer David Buckley described it as being "possessed with one of the greatest riffs of all time". On 19 October 1977, Gardiner was selected by Tony Visconti to play guitar for the pre-recorded backing of Bowie's performance on "Heroes" on the BBC's Top of the Pops. The recording was made at Good Earth Studios in Soho, London with Bowie, Visconti, and pianist Sean Mayes. Gardiner emulated Robert Fripp's guitar sound by using feedback as he had not realised an EBow had been used: "I was asked to reproduce Robert Fripp's line", he told Stephen Dalton in 2001, "I did not realise at the time that he [Fripp] had used an EBow. I did my best using feedback alone. As we went through the song, my amplifier started dying. As the song finished, so did the amp.". From the 1970s, Gardiner played and composed in a variety of music styles, including ambient, classical, and rock. In 2017, photographs Gardiner took at the Château d'Hérouville, during the making of David Bowie's Low album in 1977, were included in a hardcover book that accompanied the vinyl and CD box set of A New Career in a New Town (1977–1982), alongside photographs by Anton Corbijn, Helmut Newton, Andrew Kent, Steve Shapiro, Duffy, and others. Gardiner said that he suffered from electromagnetic hypersensitivity, which he believed he contracted through exposure to high levels of computer radiation and magnetic fields. Gardiner died on 13 May 2022, aged 73, after a long battle with Parkinson's disease."		0:36:36 (Pop-up)

Belle and Sebastian	The Fox In The Snow	If You're Feeling Sinister	Matador	1997	After the release of their debut album Tigermilk, Belle and Sebastian were approached by a number of record labels. They signed with the independent label Jeepster Records in the interests of staying independent creatively. Jeepster was willing to accept some of the group's other demands, such as releasing no singles, not doing press or promotional events, and not appearing in promotional materials. The band began releasing the new material, written by Murdoch, after signing with Jeepster. The album took five days to record and three to mix, slightly longer than Tigermilk. It was recorded in the same studio as Tigermilk and engineer Tony Doogan worked with the band's previous engineer to maintain a similar recording style. Band member Sarah Martin, who had recently joined the band at this point, likened Tigermilk and If You're Feeling Sinister to The Beatles' albums Rubber Soul and Revolver in the sense that the two albums were recorded quickly after one another. This album is rightly hailed as one of the masterpieces of the 90's.		1:50:50 (Pop-up)

The Cure	Foxy Lady "Foxy Lady" by "The Cure"	Three Imaginary Boys	Fiction Records	1979	Three Imaginary Boys was released on 11 May 1979 by record label Fiction. The record company decided which songs were put on the album, as well as the cover artwork, without Robert Smith's consent. For all Cure albums since, Smith has ensured that he is given complete creative control over the final product before it goes on sale. The "Foxy Lady" soundcheck, with vocals sung by Michael Dempsey, was not supposed to be on the album, and was removed for the American release. Smith has stated that "songs like 'Object' and 'World War' and our cover of 'Foxy Lady' were Chris Parry's choice".		1:58:40 (Pop-up)
Las Vulpes	Me Gusta Ser Un Zorra "Me Gusta Ser Un Zorra" by "Las Vulpes"	Barbarela 83 En Vivo	Punkaway	2012	Vulpess (latin name for fox, and this a slang name for "whore") was the first punk female band in the Basque Country (Spain), formed in 1982 by four girls between 17 and 21 years old. They became famous the following year when they appeared on TV programme Caja de Ritmos, performing their song "Me Gusta Ser una Zorra" ("I Like Being a Slut"). The song is a cover of The Stooges song "I Wanna Be Your Dog" with adapted Spanish lyrics. Many viewers complained about their performance, which led to a media scandal and court case. To capitalise on the attention, the song was recorded and released as a single by Dos Rombos records,which went on to sell 12000 copies. However, legal difficulties created problems for the group on their promotional tour. The band dissolved in 1983 although they reformed briefly in 1985 to play some gigs.		2:01:03 (Pop-up)
Music behind DJ: A Certain Ratio	The Fox "The Fox" by "A Certain Ratio"	To Each	Mute	1981	To Each... is the second album and debut LP by English band A Certain Ratio, released in 1981 by record label Factory. It is sometimes considered the band's official first album. It was produced by A Certain Ratio and Martin Hannett. To Each... has been seen in a more negative light by critics in comparison to the band's early music. AllMusic wrote that, with the album, "the group dropped much of the bleak dance-punk of early material in place of what sounds like a shallow attempt to seize the baton dropped by gloom giants Joy Division after the death of Ian Curtis", calling the record "a bit too mired in its own misery to make an impression on listeners."		2:04:01 (Pop-up)
The Sadies	Riverview Fog "Riverview Fog" by "The Sadies"	Northern Passages	Dine Alone Records	2017	A song that Dallas Good (d. Feb 17, 2022) wrote in the form of an open letter to his friend Rick White.This is the opening track for 2017 Sadies album "Northern Passages."Recorded in the basement of Dallas and Travis’ parents’ home north of Toronto over the winter of 2015, the familiar surroundings and lack of distractions resulted in a consistent feel, despite the eclecticism at the heart of The Sadies’ sound. The psych-folk flourishes on tracks such as “Riverview Fog” are no mere homage; this is the sound of our inscrutable world, and how we manage to survive in it."		2:13:26 (Pop-up)
Rick White	Message To Dallas "Message To Dallas" by "Rick White"	Message to Dallas (Feb.2022)	Rick White Archive / Bandcamp	2022	From Rick White: "Shortly after the shockingly sad news of his passing on February 17th, I really felt the need to write a song for Dallas. He wrote a beautiful tune about our friendship called RIVERVIEW FOG for the Sadies 2017 album "Northern Passages". It makes me cry every time i hear it. It focused on our close brotherhood always remaining strong even though we hadn't been in touch for quite awhile due mostly to my anxiety issues and hermit like seclusion. Before i came up with anything new, i started strumming his song and altering the words with one's from my perspective. His lyrics were filled with symbolic bits from our past, songs titles and moments, I tried to make my version similar. It all came together quite naturally and i'm pleased with how it turned out. I think (hope) it is a fitting tribute to the loving relationship we shared over the years. Love you brother. I recorded a demo version of the song with just guitar and vocal and have decided to just share it like this to anyone who may be interested. It's free to download if you like, please don't pay for it. Music and melody written by Dallas Good. Photo by Amanda Schenk. Lyrics: "Hello old friend i hope i didn't disappoint you It's been so long since the last time that i saw you I thought we would always be the same, but suddenly that changed. So many times i thought of younger me and you Strumming through a smoky haze, i know you missed it too But our lives just simply went off different ways, life is so strange. And now you're gone into the great beyond While i sit here just tryna write you one more song. Though i was far away you'd call each month or two Sometimes we'd talk, sometimes i wouldn't get back to you I shouldn't have believed that silly rhyme, no curse of time. I listened to our old records yesterday I wish that we could once again just sing and play But i know that's not possible today All our favourite colours now are grey, now are grey. Long gone are the days, they've all passed away, oh yeah." credits released February 27, 2022" Rick White Archive (Bandcamp) / Message to Dallas (Feb.2022)		2:16:14 (Pop-up)
The Clean	Getting Older "Getting Older" by "The Clean"	Anthology	Flying Nun Records / Merge	1982 / 2002	"Hamish Kilgour (born March 17, 1957 – died November or December 2022) was a New Zealand drummer, percussionist, guitarist, singer, and songwriter. Brother of David Kilgour." Backing Vocals, Drum [1 drum] – Chris Knox // Bass, Viola, Organ, Trumpet – Robert Scottt // Drums, Vocals, Maracas – Hamish Kilgour // Engineer – Doug Hood // Recorded By [Teac] – Chris Knox // Vocals, Guitar – David Auld Kilgour "Hamish Kilgour, a founding member of the New Zealand band the Clean, who was celebrated among fans of underground music for his propulsive drumming and his countercultural approach to life, has died. He was 65. He was found dead in Christchurch, New Zealand, on Monday, 10 days after being reported missing, the police there said. His death was referred to the coroner’s office. A central figure in the crop of freewheeling New Zealand musicians on the independent label Flying Nun that came to be called the “Dunedin sound,” Mr. Kilgour spent four decades as a musician, singing and playing percussion and later the guitar. He eventually played with more than 100 bands, including the Great Unwashed, the Sundae Painters and Monsterland, and lived for almost 30 years in New York, where he formed the band the Mad Scene. He also had a secondary passion for painting: He produced hundreds if not thousands of frank, idiosyncratic pictures, many of which were repurposed as album cover art. A deceptively powerful drummer, Mr. Kilgour might start a song in ramshackle fashion, then build to a thunderous conclusion. He had early on been inspired by Moe Tucker’s single snare on live recordings by the Velvet Underground. “I thought, that’s kind of magical and that’s possible — I could do that,” he said in 2012. Ms. Tucker’s minimalist, driving style and her enthusiasm for the power of the tambourine later colored his own playing."		2:18:51 (Pop-up)
The Jazz Butcher	Time "Time" by "The Jazz Butcher"	The Highest In The Land	Tapete Records	2022	"Patrick Huntrods (20 December 1957 – 5 October 2021), known as Pat Fish, was an English musician best known for his work as a member of the band The Jazz Butcher. (The name "Jazz Butcher" has been applied ambiguously both to Fish and the whole band.)" // "While he was making his final album as the Jazz Butcher, Pat Fish knew he was going to die. According to people close to him, he’d managed to outrace cancer, but decades of pint-hoisting good times were catching up with him. He passed away last October at age 64. But one remarkable thing about The Highest in the Land is how little morbidity encumbers it. On the contrary, it positively brims with life. Even when Fish stares down death in the dub-rock countdown “Time,” it’s with the same old gleam in his eye and dodge in his step. “Fishy go to Heaven, get along, get along,” he drawls, rakish and sarcastic, rushing toward “a pit of Council lime.” But most of the other lyrics are acid pronouncements tangled in exuberant wordplay. The verses excoriate lithium mining and privatized jails, but the pre-choruses are stuffed with nearly nonsense lists of shapely words: luminous, leguminous, salubrious, lugubrious. Part giddy fuck-you-I’m-out to an England he’d suffered from Thatcher to Brexit, part psychedelic experience with a rhyming dictionary, “Time” is all Fish. In other words, this cockeyed memento mori is just another great Butch tune on another great Butch record: irascible, inscrutable, delectable, irreducible."		2:23:10 (Pop-up)

Public Body	Break From Life "Break From Life" by "Public Body"	Break From Life/35s & 40s	Fatcat Records	2022	Ahead of the release of their debut album next year, Brighton’s Public Body are sharing new track ‘Break From Life’. “‘Break From Life’ is about taking a lackadaisical approach to life, nothing is really happening and you enter into an idle state,” the band’s Seb Gilmore explains. “Realising that you’ve run down the clock by taking a back seat the whole time and not applying yourself. This realisation hits you whilst doom scrolling on your phone, you haven’t moved position in a while and you can feel your whole body aching to be moved, but still there isn’t even motivation to do that. This song was written/recorded/mixed at home using an old 70’s Woolworths amp and 80’s Yamaha drum machine.”		2:46:04 (Pop-up)
DEADLETTER	Binge "Binge" by "DEADLETTER"	Binge Single	So Recordings	2022	“’Binge’ was written in no more than 25 minutes during rehearsals for a tour in January,” singer Zac Lawrence explains. “Hearing the word ‘Binge’, we may initially be drawn to a very specific image or thought of a person or a habit, however when we take a closer look at society it can be realised that bingeing is inherent within our behaviour as human beings,” he continues. “Whether it be something as mundane as collecting stamps, or devotion of your existence to a deity, we are all bingers through and through and, ultimately, life is one long binge.”		2:49:19 (Pop-up)

The band explains that the song references the futility of mental health support by imitating the generic, automated answer machines of crisis lines.		2:52:36 (Pop-up)
The Queen's Head	Teach Me To Dance	Teach Me To Dance Single	The Queen's Head	2022	South London newcomers The Queen’s Head have shared a new single, ‘Teach Me To Dance’. Speaking about the track, the band explain: “At the heart of ‘Teach Me To Dance’ is a power-dynamic. The title doesn’t end with a question mark: it is a command, with one sorry soul (us, unfortunately) instructing another (a front-row audience member, a would-be lover, literally anybody) to provide them with choreographic know-how. It is pathetic, really, to request the teaching of something as natural as moving to a rhythm: a dance should grow, like a flower, no matter how ugly, away from the dirt and into the sky. A command? Yes. Desperation? Most certainly.”		2:55:23 (Pop-up)

	8:42pm DJ Babs: I never do get tired of this song and album...it's a gem!
	8:43pm gsdoubleu: RIP Gordie
	8:43pm Robm: @DJ Babs iggy could do a commercial jungle and still make it good
	8:44pm Derek Westerholm: Such a sad scene... Interesting that Teenage Head will keep playing, as was Gord's behest.
	8:44pm Robm: I meant jingle sorry
	8:44pm Derek Westerholm: By such a sad scene, I mean the sad way Gord passed.
	🏝 8:46pm Scott67: ⬅️Finished T-Shirt Design as Avatar! Now I'm back in the room & rockin!! 🍻😎🤙💨🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺
	8:47pm DJ Babs: Oh for sure Rob! I am somewhat disappointed in his most recent choices for collaborators tho! Not a big RHCP or Sum 41 fan lol
	8:47pm DJ Babs: Awesome Scott!!
	8:50pm VinylVillainSean: Can't wait!
	8:53pm DJ Babs: www.mixcloud.com...
	8:53pm ultradamno: My favorite x-mas jingles: The Residents - Fire -Seasoned Greetings -Dumbo The Clown Tuxedomoon - Holiday For Plywood The Fall - No X-Mas For John Quays The Birthday Party - Dead Joe The Gun Club - Sex Beat
	🏝 8:53pm Scott67: Cheers Babs!🍻🪰🤙
	8:57pm DJ Nico: Howdy 👋🏼
	9:00pm DJ Babs: Hi Nico! Welcome welcome!!!
	9:10pm Derek Westerholm: Hello Nico!!!
	9:11pm Derek Westerholm: Ultra, great choices... I just noticed the X-mas related lyrics in Sex Beat this week... Don't know how that escaped me for so long...
	9:13pm DJ Nico: Derek & Babs ♥️
	🏝 9:17pm Scott67: Tha'.. is a Camberwell Carrot maaain!
	9:22pm DJ Babs: lol...Camberwell Carrot!
	🏝 9:23pm Scott67: Just don't light it Babs!
	9:29pm DJ Babs: We were very happy for the Cravats reference for sure! Ed has a TON of hilarious stories!!
	9:32pm ultradamno: This would make a great Popeye's commercial
	9:36pm ultradamno: It's funny these two things are both coming up, because I recall when the lockdown happened by the fact The Cravats did a live session on Marc Riley's show right before, it's like the last of the before times...
	9:38pm Derek Westerholm: Ah... "The before times"... Bet it was a great session though. Marc Riley's show is fantastic!
	9:39pm ultradamno: It's a shame BBC did away with the music show app, it made listening to it a lot easier.
	9:41pm ultradamno: I love the movie Spider Baby
	9:43pm DJ Nico: Great interview ♥️
	9:43pm DJ Blush: You're good at this, B
	9:44pm gsdoubleu: agreed!
	9:44pm DJ Nico: Blush ♥️
	9:45pm DJ Blush: Hey T :)
	9:51pm Derek Westerholm: Agreed, so exciting! Babs is an excellent interviewer!
	9:53pm DJ Blush: Haven't heard this one in a while.
	9:55pm DJ Babs: Aww thanks guys! I do like doing interviews that's for sure. It's really fun. And this is probably my fave B&S song...perfect for winter!!!
	9:56pm ultradamno: Oh, that Cravats show in on the you tubes www.youtube.com...
	🏝 9:58pm Scott67: Fox song takes me back to my pre-pubescent impure thoughts.
	9:58pm Derek Westerholm: Fantastic! I'll have to check out the Cravats Sesh.
	10:01pm Derek Westerholm: Speaking of, Marc Riley has taken over from John Peel in regards of Wedding Present sessions galore... There are already 4 compilation albums of sessions!!! 3 collections & 1 live set! Weddoes did more Peel Sessions than any other band, I believe. Looks like Riley is ensuring the radio-session streak continues into the 10's and 20's...
	10:02pm DJ Babs: The video for that Fox tune is REEEEDICULOUSLY awesome. Its' SO 70's. She's freaking gorgeous!!!
	10:02pm ultradamno: I can't really think of a lady as being foxy until I see her eat a live hen
	10:04pm DJ Babs: hahaha!
	10:06pm v-dawg: Yeah! I never heard the live version of <<me gusta ser una zorra>> before.
	10:09pm ultradamno: Were people offended by the implication of them being trans-canines?
	10:11pm v-dawg: If rock radikal vasco interests you, watch the documentary "Salda badago".
	10:15pm DJ Babs: Hey V-Dog! Thank you for the tip! I will definitely look that up!
	10:20pm DJ Nico: These two songs 💔
	10:22pm DJ Babs: I know...it does make us a little misty here. The holidays are a time to celebrate but it also reminds us of those who aren't there to be with us...and to remember them. ❤️
	10:22pm Derek Westerholm: Nico, I know, right? I've been teary eyed a few times this week listening to them back-to-back.
	10:22pm ultradamno: Well, the year started with Bruce Anderson of MX-80 Sound dying, which for me was the worst, but the year really pulled out all the stops to top it.
	10:25pm DJ Babs: I think it will get harder for us...as many of us are at "a certain age" where our musical heroes are leaving us...
	10:26pm gsdoubleu: @djbabs too true
	10:27pm DJ Babs: This is a fantaaaaastic tune. Derek digs up the gems!!!
	10:28pm gsdoubleu: this is really groovy
	🏝 10:28pm Scott67: Like a smooth The The!
	10:29pm DJ Nico: Derek, the two songs were so beautiful, drenched in love — Dallas and Rick such sweet souls.
	10:30pm DJ Babs: ❤️ agreed. Dallas' leaving is a huge loss to our scene...and everywhere.
	10:30pm gsdoubleu: yeah he was a giant
	10:32pm DJ Babs: This Low song also hits me in the feels! Fear not tho we will make up for it next week as it's ALL FESTIVE HOLIDAY MUSIC of the non annoying kind!!!
	10:33pm Derek Westerholm: Dallas was a truly amazing musician and individual.
	10:33pm v-dawg: @dj babs Your welcome. The film is in basque and spanish. You may need to search for subtitles.
	10:34pm Derek Westerholm: Also, it must be noted that Rick White is very much alive. He recorded a wonderful tribute album this year to The Sadies.
	10:34pm DJ Babs: Thanks V-Dawg! Or I can try and follow along in my rudimentary spanish!!!
	10:37pm ultradamno: The on the nose MX-80 song for this would likely be Why Are We Here?
	10:38pm Derek Westerholm: I will have to investigate MX-80 Sound. Sadly, I am not familiar...
	10:40pm ultradamno: They were, and I do not say this lightly, the best band signed to Ralph Records.
	10:43pm ultradamno: A video of them on Bloomington TV early on twitter.com...
	10:45pm ultradamno: mx80sound.com
	10:48pm Derek Westerholm: Ultra, thanks for that!!
	10:49pm ultradamno: Creamo's tribute show www.wfmu.org...
	10:49pm Derek Westerholm: We're back into more upbeat musical territory here, again...!
	10:50pm DJ Babs: Stressed and upbeaT LOL
