This week many of our singers don't sing - they talk instead. We explore the nexus of spoken word with music, and spoken word poems converted into songs. Artists include Sky Cries Mary, The Orb, The Creatures, Florence Welch, Morrissey.

 

And Princess Leia. Because it's time to bring the Force to the podcast.

Hello, podcast listeners!

We celebrate our one-year anniversary with a special, podcast-only extended episode!

This episode won't be broadcast on radio, so feast your ears on 2 HOURS of foot-tapping alternative music fit for a nightclub.

This podcast-only episode is like a good nightclub - 18 plus! Some of the songs have lyrics that might offend sensitive kid-ears. You've been warned.

This episode brings the best remixes from Bjork, Depeche Mode, St Vincent and Everything but the Girl - as well as classic house, trance and rave music from Messiah, Grace Jones, Apotheosis, Amanda Palmer, Junkie XL, Massive Attack and more!

We'll be back labor day weekend for another official episode for both radio and podcast. Meanwhile, feast your ears on this and all of our previous episodes, and don't forget to subscribe, give a rating and leave a comment. And thank you for taking our podcast with you wherever you go.
