Episode 379: They Keep Killing Steed

This is the 379th edition of the Epileptic Gibbon podcast music show and the playlist to accompany it. You can CLICK HERE TO DOWNLOAD but note that the shows are large files. The show is also available to stream via Mixcloud and the Progzilla Radio Network (the show appears on Progzilla in alternate weeks). Happy New Year! I hope that you had a good, or at least a bearable festive season, and that you enjoyed the recent festive edition of this show. But it’s now time to welcome in the new year with a typically eclectic playlist, including a little bit of 2024 music. We also have a feature album, and for that we return to our new Prog Magazine feature, because the latest issue has an article on the wonderful Mitsune, so our feature album will be their second, ‘Hazama’, from 2022, and you’ll hear three tracks from that throughout the playlist. Otherwise you can expect the usual eclectic mixture of music, including tracks from 2023, some older tracks of various vintages, and a reflection on Chrimbo Limbo 2, our live music event that happened on the 28th of December in Cheltenham. Below you’ll find the track list, plus weblinks from where you can find more information about each artist.

Episode 376: Doctor Who, London Jazz Festival and Chrimbo Limbo preview

This is the 376th edition of the Epileptic Gibbon podcast music show and the playlist to accompany it. You can CLICK HERE TO DOWNLOAD but note that the shows are large files. The show is also available to stream via Mixcloud and the Progzilla Radio Network (the show appears on Progzilla in alternate weeks). This latest show is a little all over the place, albeit in a good way, I think. There’s no feature album this time but as this November sees the 60th anniversary of TV show ‘Doctor Who’, it seems apt to have a feature theme instead, so you’ll hear four different versions of the ‘Doctor Who’ theme scattered throughout the playlist. In addition we have a preview of this year’s Chrimbo Limbo live music event, happening on 28th December, 2023, at Smokey Joe’s in Cheltenham, with tracks from all three of the acts performing, and we’ll also have an interview with Chantelle Smith and Richard Wileman, who will be headlining this year’s Chrimbo Limbo, so you’ll hear what you can expect from them on the 28th of December. Also, recently it’s been the EFG London Jazz festival, which had a great line-up, so we’ll look back at some of the wonderful acts who were performing this year. Other than that, you can expect the usual eclectic mixture of music, spanning a period of 60 years. Below you’ll find the track list, plus weblinks from where you can find more information about each artist.

Episode 375: Creative Endeavours with Hats Off Gentlemen It’s Adequate

This is the 375th edition of the Epileptic Gibbon podcast music show and the playlist to accompany it. You can CLICK HERE TO DOWNLOAD but note that the shows are large files. The show is also available to stream via Mixcloud and the Progzilla Radio Network (the show appears on Progzilla in alternate weeks). Hopefully you got through the recent Halloween special relatively unscathed. This new show couldn’t be much more different, as we have a twin focus on themes connected to science fiction and the cycle of violence, albeit through music, and this is reflected in the fact that we have an interview and no less than two feature albums. Our interview is with Malcolm Galloway and Mark Gatland, the duo behind Hats Off Gentlemen It’s Adequate, and one of our feature albums is their latest, ‘The Light Of Ancient Mistakes’, so you’ll hear three tracks from that during the interview, as well as music chosen by Malcolm and Mark, and a look ahead to their one day progressive music event, Prog the Forest ’23. And our second feature album is the soundtrack to the 2023 film, ‘The Creator’, and you’ll hear four tracks from or inspired by that soundtrack throughout the show. Other than that, you can expect the usual eclectic mixture of music, including a look ahead to this year’s Chrimbo Limbo live music event in late December. Below you’ll find the track list, plus weblinks from where you can find more information about each artist.

Thanks to all the musicians who contributed, and particularly to Malcolm Galloway and Mark Gatland, and of course to all of you listeners. Send us comments if you like what you hear (or even if you don’t… feedback is so important!). If you want to keep up to date with news about the show, EppyFest, or just chat with other listeners, don’t forget that there’s a Facebook group – just search for the Eppy Gibbon Podcast Show on Facebook and request to join, plus don’t forget that we’re now part of the Progzilla Radio Network. For the next show, in a couple of weeks’ time, you will hear the usual eclectic mixture, including some new music, a more thorough preview of this year’s Chrimbo Limbo live music event, and a bit of Doctor Who-related music to celebrate that show’s 60th anniversary. I hope to see you back for all of that.
