Have you had your daily dose of fuzztone and backwards guitar drone? Not yet? Well here you go! We've got an impressive playlist today, as you can see below. With 60's garage, psych, freakbeat, 80's garage revival and generally paisley-esque indiepop. It includes an exclusive preview of an ace song from The Branded, and you should check out the three other ones on MySpace. There was a bit of a technical hitch during the Delmontes number, but the song is repeated in full at the end of the programme. The problem with the start and stop times is still not solved so you'll have to skip to the end of Diversion for the first song. Maybe I should just do a shorter set, starting later? And don't ask me about the title of the programme... But checkered paint WOULD make for easier production of chess boards!

This was a combined blog and radio show about POP! music. I started the blog when I moved to Glasgow and it ran during my stay there. We broadcast weekly from Glasgow University's Subcity.org. The shows are catalogued as SPLASHes, and you can still listen to all of them. There are also some rare or hard-to-find indiepop gems for download, and these are labelled DROP. Have fun while it lasts!
or any encouraging words you might have, can be sent to this address. But it'll be a whole lot easier to just leave a comment! I won't check the mail too often. If you've got more general ponderings, such as "what's all this pop stuff about anyway?", your questions might be answered by the manifesto I wrote some time ago, for better or worse.
