Hello music-lovers,

Here's the iPlayer link & playlist for last night's full-to-the-seams celebration of mostly-new, mostly-Welsh music.

http://www.bbc.co.uk/iplayer/episode/b00lksj7/Adam_Walton_12_07_2009/

Contained therein you will find:

3 dayglo garage pop session tracks from The Loves whose new album, '3', is out now on Fortuna Pop!

Martin Carr's Musical DNA. The former musical visionary behind the Boo Radleys & bravecaptain shares 4 of the songs that were most influential in his evolution as an artist. All of this in advance of the release of his luminously soulful and beautifully-crafted new album, Ye Gods (and Little Fishes). Over the years, Martin has introduced me to some artists and songs that have become lifelong passions... here's hoping that the 4 songs he chooses on this week's show do the same for you.

Ye Gods (and Little Fishes) is out now on Sonny Boy Records and is available on iTunes.

Ectogram's Ann Matthews gives us her monthly audio blog, bookended by a couple of songs from the far too infrequently celebrated Slapp Happy.

Huw Pooh takes his archaeological trowel to the the first bona fide Welsh rock 7" from Y Blew.

Sophie and Andy from North Wales' leftfield culture magazine, theAbsurd, come in to tell us about the debut Y Ffin festival that they're helping to stage in Mold on Saturday 25th July.
