I kicked of this episode by apologising to WindowHead for getting their name wrong in the previous episode. We have been in contact via Instagram and are all friends again, so that’s good.

I was able to welcome Dolphin Feathers from who joined me from https://youheardithearfirst.com/  to go through the tunes in this episode. We started with punk rocker (in the literal sense) CJ Wildheart and the thumping “You Got The Best Of Me” Once part of punk godfathers (?) The Wildhearts CJ is flying solo in this soon to become new (or NU?) punk banger. CJ starts a UK tour in May

Second up was Berty and Big Leap. I can never strees this enough buyt please listen with headphones unless you have a kick arse stereo as this is ASMR heaven. Tingles indead from this stunningly produced masterpiece, Big Leap certainly delivered in “Tingles”. She has a Facebook page which is something but I will keep banging on at artists to get a website. Certainly also worth checking out her YouTube profile We definitely want to hear more.

The Spitfires had us both nodding our heads and channelling Madness (Dolphin Feathers) and The Stranglers (me) with their nu mod “Better the Devil You Know“. They have just started a UK tour

So get along to one of those dates if you can. If you cant then perhaps visit their linktree to learn more about this interesting Watford band.

Podcast favourite Pmad ended and interesting amd rather alternative podcast with a collaboration with Italian artist “Think” and a new song “Chance“. We reviled in the beautiful chaotic mix of majors and minors and the gorgeous drama of this tune from the Irish Londonite. His linktree is the best place to start following this gem of an artist so if he is for you then be there for him.

 

I also reminded listers that there are Spotify and Tidal playlists made up of all the tracks played on the podcast that appear on those platforms if you wanted to take a listen. Visit the website and click.
