There's something pretty special about live music on radio. It's the aspect of doing this whole Scottish Fiction hoo-la that I enjoy the most. So it was such a delight to get back to hosting Scottish Fiction Sessions as I welcomed Dec '91 into the studio for a chat and live music. We spoke about music, travelling, our upcoming Scottish Fiction Presents gig, as well as all sorts of other nonsense. Making up the rest of the show, there's a new Playlist addition from Tongues, music from Yutani, Turtle, and Holy Esque, and stunning Re-Mixing It Up track from Outblinker via Machines In Heaven.

Having had the idea of doing a live review show for the best part of six months, it was great to finally get the Scottish Fiction Roundtable off the ground and on the air. Not that it was overly difficult mind you. Step 1: Ask a blogger to come on the show and review records. Step 2: Do it. So I was delighted to be joined by my monthly EP series partner in crime David McElroy from Almost Predictable. Almost to run through tracks from Deadly Rides, Reverieme, Ambassadeurs, Holy Esque, Hudson Mohawke and Pinact. There's also a BBC Introducing Stage slant to the show, with no less than 7 acts playing the T in the Park stage featured on the show. Wrap that up with a Re-Mixing It Up track and new music from Miracle Strip, Outblinker and Big Cloud, you've got yourself two hours of Scottish Fiction.

What a wonderful world we live in sometimes... Musically speaking this week's Scottish Fiction show is pretty lovely too.
