Welcome to those longer days of illumination and colour, where we all squint in the blessed rays of a new sun. We’ve kept a bed for you under a tree where you can listen to our new bunch of great sounds. This month we’re featuring tracks from the latest (and sadly last) Kikagaku Moyo album ‘Kumoyo Island’, and what a sign-off it is from this brilliant band. Daub some factor 30 on, grab your earbuds, and meet us in the hills.
