The Harbour album is an absolute thing of beauty...somehow it just feels as though it seeps into you upon repeated listens - so proud he agreed to collaborate with us !

I'm so happy I stumbled across it, a real miracle.

The Particles - Advanced Colouring (7") YouTube video by moss

This jazz song segues very beautifully into a track by The Particles in a couple of mins, jazz-sceptics. It'll make it worth it. From Yorkshire-jazz to early 80s indiepop from Sydney with just a half-second of separation.

A Portal To Here, by Work Money Death 4 track album

Now playing 'Brother Earl' from the brilliant new LP by Work Money Death: playing this obsessively at the mo. Deeply uplifting, nay ecstatic Pharoah Sanders-style transcendence from West Yorkshire.

4CD March 2026 offer ~ Hanemoon, Harbour (double album), Shopfires and Greg Brady and the Anchors (EP), by Subjangle 0 track album

This month's @subjangle.bsky.social 4xCD offer is up and available, by the way, and it contains a double CD by my delightful pal @powerfulpierre.bsky.social. AND the thrilling new LP by Shopfires, who I invariably play on the show.

Just radio-ed Pete's 'It Makes Me Happy Just Thinking About It'.

Weston-le-Clay, by Aidmoozic 8 track album

I hope you enjoyed that little 70 second track from the brilliantly refreshing new LP, Weston-Le-Clay by Aidmoozic just now, which is certainly one of the louder things I've played on the radio. Scratches my Minutemen/Mission of Burma itch, that. The LP is great - eight tracks in 7 minutes

A Different Beat, by Heavenlyindie from the album Highway To Heavenly

Currently playing: A Different Beat by Heavenly via @skepwax.bsky.social. A slighter lither and funkier Heavenly than we have become accustomed to. I really love this song.

Slip, by Shane Parish from the album Autechre Guitar

That last track was 'Slip' by @shaneparish.bsky.social, just one of his wonderful guitar reinterpretations of the songs of Autechre. Stunningly lovely.

The Tracksuit Trilogy, by The Experimental Pop Band 23 track album

If you liked the Davey Woodward track, do check out this lovely reissue of The Experimental Pop Band's The Tracksuit Trilogy on @unspunheroes.com. Really good stuff. And that new single is the first track from an LP, The Bristollian, which will release later this year

#freshingredients

New Davey Woodward on now "You didn't like to listen to my jazz records / but I persuaded you / look at the hairs standing up on the back of the cat / it's torture, there's no tune, I can't listen to it / you'd leave the room and return five minutes later / a marmite smile on your face". Love this.

The Bear by @hellomidlands.com

The Bear, by Hello Midlands track by Hello Midlands

Currently playing 'The Bear' by the wonderful @hellomidlands.com - a tense, wild, lurching gothic ballad; a sort of a cross between a police procedural and a folk story. Complete with roars and dizzyingly great lyrics

hellomidlands.bandcamp.com/track/the-bear

Outside, saints are faked, poverty is performed, and terror is aestheticised; Pa finally escapes to wine and raw fish, shuts himself away again, and sleeps - history unresolved beyond the door.

He shrinks, expands, impersonates trees, meets bears, and is slotted into history “with a space for his image,” as art, religion and politics blur into theatre in the city of the closed doors.

Pa arrives in a sealed, surreal city -chauffeured past moneyboxes and miners - then retreats to his “inner chamber,” a pampered figure drifting through spectacle while the world outside murmurs and queues.

Robert Wyatt – A Sunday in Madrid Pa arrives in the city of the closed doors / Greeted by miners from Asturias / His limousine streaks past giant shiny moneyboxes / Huddled together for warmth / He is deposited in

I have a bit of a habit of quoting lyrics on this radio show: managed to resist doing it for this song, but gosh! Do read them.

Thanks for your tweet, pals! x

Ignite, by Sea of Days track by Sea of Days

That was 'Pilot Light' by Andrew Rumsey, who has made my fave LP of the year so far. Really terrific.

Now playing, the new single by @seaofdays.bsky.social - a spectacular track called 'Ignite'.

seaofdays.bandcamp.com/track/ignite

Newsflash for anyone who just heard me describe the @andrewrumsey.bsky.social LP as forthcoming on the radio just now. It's OUT, released today.

It's bloody amazing.

If you are nearby and have yr internet radio turned to untidy.com, then you are now in the orbit of #freshingredients, my indie-pop adjacent show. Thanks so much for tuning in, if you have!

A Portal To Here, by Work Money Death 4 track album

If you’re near a radio in half an hour and fancy some indie pop, folk, pastoral melodies and a track from this great new LP - tune in to untidyradio.com at 7pm uk time.

First song up is a corker by @andrewrumsey.bsky.social.

Tonight - Sunday 1st March at 7pm - the lovely Fresh Ingredients radio show with Jonathan Shipley @assistant.bandcamp.com is on @untidyradio.com.
Tune in at untidyradio.com 🙂😍😎

The new SHOPFIRES album The Old Works. A sister/companion album to We Are Not There But We Are Here is in the March @subjangle.bsky.social 4CD offer available now.
Nice to see Peter Simmons @powerfulpierre.bsky.social @assistant.bandcamp.com get a physical release for his ongoing Harbour project.

Listened several times today to the "Home Truths" mini-album by Fran Carlyon which I found in the mail some days ago. If you also want to get hands on one of 25 limited CDrs you might better be quick - There's only one copy left on bandcamp.

@francarlyon.bandcamp.com @yyzrecords.bsky.social

Absolutely!

You’re very welcome! I love the new stuff!

Sorry! They’re splendid aren’t they. Their track Foxes was one of my faves last year - so brilliant. The album is lovely but was a grower for me. A firm favourite now.
