Joining Matthew in the bird hide today is Dan from Newcaslte-based psych band Smote. The chat took place in a new hide for Matt, and there were a few podcast firsts in terms of bird spotting. A nuthatch or two, and a great spotted woodpecker. They talked about Dan's DIY recording techniques, the inspirations of his latest album 'Drommon', The Epic of Giglamesh, Hard to Be a God, and Dan's new found adoration of the humble moorhen.
