Episode 312 - There are tracks by Amon Tobin, Alasdair Roberts and Linda Perhac in Episode #312 of The Parish News. I manage to play quite a few new tracks - both unreleased and new-to-me. I finally got around to playing a Coil track on The Parish News; apologies it took 312 episodes.

Episode #311 - due to a series of errors, I made a bad show and had to re-upload it here. I try and cut down on my jibber jabber so there is extra space for the music as we take a trip to the experimental scene in India with Songs For A Tired City having stopped off in Marrakesh for a ceremonial Gnawa track. Other artists include the Copenhagen Clarinet Choir, Moor Mother, Gintas K & Steve Roden - to name a few.

Episode #311 - This edition features a new track by Catherine Graindorge & Iggy Pop. I try and cut down on my jibber jabber so there is extra space for the music as we take a trip to India with Songs For A Tired City having stopped off in Marrakesh for Gnawa Music. Other artists include Copenhagen Clarinet Choir, Moor Mother, Gintas K & Steve Roden - to name a few.

Episode #310 - I think I get away with playing two guilty pleasures in this Episode, but I will let you be the judge. This show also features tracks by Ivor Cutler, Chris Watson, Luc Ferrari, Yann Novak and Oliver Coates, to name a few. There is also escape from the muggy heat of the evening this was recorded when I play a soundscape of Whitby Harbour from 1958.

Episode #309 - This week's show starts off strong with Jozef van Wissem and James Blackshaw's duo, Brethren of the Free Spirit. The show features tracks by Mike Paradinas, SUNN O))), a Vietnamese folk track about the war, Mark E. Smith with his spoken word and Kim Myhr - to name a few.

The Parish News - Episode #308: There are (numerically) not too many tracks on this week's Episode. On Episode #308 I played a track that I paid around $35 to have the cassette posted out to me from America - I do not regret that and stand by my actions. Other tracks featured on this show include electronic tracks by Carl Stone and Anatomist, sound art by Lewis Gilbert and Sun Ra even makes an appearance.

Episode #307 of The Parish News - this was recorded as I was bobbing between my bedroom (where I was recording the show) and the front room where Mrs Backhouse was watching France vs. Germany in the Euro (W) Semi-Finals. It did not do my nerves much good but it was a good game; this show has its fair amount of mangled pronunciation. I reckon you need to check my site for the correct way to say a few tracks and artists. Thanks for listening!

The Parish News #306 - Quite a few listener submissions to this show, Episode #306. Plus, I get to play my favourite John Betjeman poems, as read by the poet himself. The show ends with a bit of a cheat; I bought a one-track album that is over an hour long. I would not play the entire album and take the spoils from the artists, but I manage to fill half an hour of broadcast with the track. I admit I was confused by new tech this episode, so the links are a bit second rate; but, I hope to pick it up next week.

Episode #305 of The Parish News - This week The Parish News plays quite a few more short-form tracks than normal, with the longest only being around the sixteen-minute mark. This is a radical departure but one I welcome. Featured tracks include a great piece of extended singing courtesy of Georgina Brett and a track made by a tree - to name a few.
