This particular show is a Halloween special, over 60 minutes of spooky, creepy or supernaturally-themed music, hosted by Count Eppy Gibbon.

Episode 6: The General
This is the sixth edition of the Epileptic Gibbon podcast music show and the blog entry to accompany it. CLICK HERE TO LISTEN. This particular show contains over 60 minutes of music, further exploring the world of Epileptic Gibbon music, featuring some great artists, many of whom you probably won’t have heard of before, plus some ramblings from me. No feature album this time because we were supposed to be interviewing Phideaux Xavier, about his musical career and latest album, but technical problems mean that we won’t hear that interview just yet. But never mind because instead it gave me the chance to play a very diverse selection of tracks and artists, including some old friends and hopefully some new ones too.
