Ö÷²¥´óÐã

This week's show is now available via the Ö÷²¥´óÐã iPlayer. Please visit the link any time between now and the start of the next programme.

This week we bathe in the heartening radiance of a live set from The Gentle Good, aka Gareth Bonello. I wrote - at length, with a certain amount of ear drool spilling on to my keyboard - about Gareth's excellent live set t'other night elsewhere in these blogs, well this is 13 minutes of that set. Lucky for us, truly.

Elsewhere Huw Williams talks about Datblygu, Ben Hayes inspires us with some Essential Logic (a programme first!) and Lara Catrin tackles the not inconsiderable task of translating a couple of verses from Genod Droog for us.

Then - of course - there is the music. New tracks from The School, Race Horses and Future of the Left - and debut plays for The Secret Agent 5, Mike Fantastic, Amane, Best Days, Ronnie Parry, Panabrite, Exempt, Ric L. Washer and Bo Walton.
