Listen here , though I'd love you to subscribe ! In a rare turn of events, this week's show is an all-UK affair. By complete and utter chance, the tracks that I selected as making up a coherent 'whole' for TFL157 turned out to all come from this sceptered isle. So don your Brit-centric ears and cop a load of this. The Bromptons – 'It Doesn't Take A Lot' Frantic Chant – 'Call For Justice' Rattlebus – 'Ricochet' / 'Riding In Circles' The soundbed was 'Arabica (Lounge Remix)' by Marcome Three From Leith theme-tune by Alex Aitken

Listen here , though I'd love you to subscribe ! A special 'One From Leith' this week after a hellish & very, very long week at work with too many late nights stuck at my desk. Not having a chance to prepare a normal show gave me the perfect opportunity to play a track I've been toying with playing since 2005, and which I had only recently discussed with other podcasters. So, prepare for an epic piece from Phideaux and journey with him through the various movements it incorporates. It was the first track I heard from him when I discovered his music way back in 2005, and it's what made

Listen here , though I'd love you to subscribe ! Two brand new albums from familiar TFL bands feature on this week's show, from Scotland and Sweden. Double tracks from each – I'm spoiling you !! Not only that, but a brand new Edinburgh band for you too. And hear what happens when an accident occurs. How many people will stop and help ? Can you guess ? Dropkick – 'Patchwork' / 'Lucky That The Heart' Jump: Press A – 'Call For Justice' Strangers In Wonderland – 'In My Dreams' / 'I Like It' The soundbed was 'Jellyfish' by Ace of Space Three From Leith theme-tune by Ale

Listen here , though I'd love you to subscribe ! The clocks have gone back, the economy's going down the toilet and winter is well and truly on the way. Dark, skint and cold – what a combination ! Never fear though, as TFL continues to bring you excellent new music, FREE, every week. And with this week's artists, you're getting the best on offer from around the world to fill your cash-stapped ears with. TFL – always value for money. Autovaughn – 'The Cycles' Dear Martin – 'Call For Justice' Dear Martin – 'Call For Justice' Dear Martin – 'Call For Justice' Dear Martin

Listen here or use the player on the right, though I’d love you to subscribe ! In between working 10 and 11 hour days at work last week, I spent what little free time I had left working on hosting an episode of the Association of Music Podcasting’s weekly showcase podcast, AMPed. I’d signed up [...]

Listen here , though I'd love you to subscribe ! Time for a spot of relaxation with Three From Leith; music with a meditative mood, so mellow that I got utterly unwound during the recording and began to drift off on the New Waves lapping around my ears. Let TFL take the strain out of your working week ! Marcomι – 'Arabica' Tally Koren – 'In My Dreams' More Human Than Human – 'Point Of No Return' / 'Song of Himeropa' The soundbed was 'Summer Moon Electro' by Ariaphonics Three From Leith theme-tune by Alex Aitken

Listen here , though I'd love you to subscribe ! In an strange state of mind when I sat down to record this, I decided on an eclectic, odd and jaunty selection of music this week. Where else will you get Howard Hughes, monkeys having breakfast, sozzled dormice and plank-walking all in the same show ? Nowhere other than Three From Leith – regularly shaking you out of your comfort zone for something a little different... The Pocket Gods – 'Howard Hughes' Adam Balbo – 'I Don't Want To Party' The Banana Sessions – 'The Drunken Dormouse' / 'The Ballad of Captain Molloy' The

Listen here , though I'd love you to subscribe ! Uh-huh. Once again I was short of time and said the show would be shorter than usual, and once again I somehow managed to blether on until the show ended up being the normal length. I'm incorrigable – please don't encourage me !! Anyway, another fine selection of independent, unsigned or under-appreciated artists for your enjoyment – and a message from The Azores. Three From Leith – spreading the musical word across the world. urbancircus – 'Invitation' doublePark – 'I Don't Want To Party' Plunkett – 'Flies' / 'Dinosaurs 

Listen here , though I'd love you to subscribe ! During the recording of the show, I realised that I'd missed TFL's 3rd birthday which was back on the 8th September . Oh well – once you get to a certain age these things no longer seem important !! With tales of cycling derring-do and a high-rise squirrel who's causing havoc with my nuts (ahem !), it's another exciting episode featuring there more excellent bands for your listening pleasure. Ejectorseat – 'Not My Girl' War Tapes – 'Dreaming Of You' Marching Band – 'For Your Love' / 'Makeup Artist' The soundbed was 'Sunri

Listen here , though I'd love you to subscribe ! A bad cold, recovery in time for Pedal For Scotland and the event itself meant that I wasn't able to devote the time to a normal TFL this week, but it did give me the excuse to put out another MixTape that I'd concocted recently. This is a bit more of a rocker than the last one ! [tag]Karma[/tag] – 'Tattoo' [tag]Movie55[/tag] – 'Anyone In There' [tag]Czeduce[/tag] – 'Smashed' [tag]Day Out[/tag] – 'Setreseze' [tag]Death Of A Dancer[/tag] – 'Exit Body' [tag]Bombing Run[/tag] – 'At Least' [tag]Figment[/tag]

Listen here or use the player on the right, though I’d love you to subscribe ! Swinging from Scotland to Australia via Spain in mainland Europe, this week is a bit of an trans-continental trip. I wish we had a little of the European or Australian weather here in Scotland; still very wet and now it’s [...]

Listen here , though I'd love you to subscribe ! It's time for the ladies to come to the fore again this week – 5 tracks from 3 artists, and with a mainly laid-back, trip-poppy feel to the show. Thanks to everyone who's sent comments and emails recently, and a huge thanks to those who've sponsored me for Pedal For Scotland so far. Pedal For Scotland so far. Pedal For Scotland so far. Pedal For Scotland so far. Natalie Walker – 'Pink Neon' / 'Over and Under' Juliana Hatfield - 'Shining On' Vanessa Daou - 'Sunday Afternoons' / 'Near The Black Forest' The

Listen here , though I'd love you to subscribe ! Two weeks off. Two weeks of rain. The worst summer weather in the UK for years !

Listen here , though I'd love you to subscribe ! Well, back after a wee break just in time to announce a longer break. But not THAT long – just enough to give me a summer break that doesn't have me chained to the PC instead of going out ! So, until the last week of August, please savour: The Lodger – 'The Good Old Days' / 'The Conversation' Greta Gaines - 'Whiskey Thoughts' Dykeritz - 'Big Drapes' The soundbed was 'Tuleni' by Tomas Dvorak Three From Leith theme-tune by Alex Aitken

Many apologies - I didn’t manage to get a show together this week after time ran away with me. I’ll be back next week, but in the meantime why not take a listen to last week’s Made In The UK Show 30, where I made an appearance ? See you on Tuesday ! Share This

Listen here , though I'd love you to subscribe ! Show 143 marks the long-awaited return of the band who kicked off the very first Three From Leith – yes, global podcast favourites the Hotrod Cadets are back with a new album. This podcast features three tracks from it, plus tracks from another Glasgow band and a Windmill who has tinges of the Polyphonic Spree about him. Start the car up ! Hotrod Cadets – 'Something In The Engine' Drive By Argument - 'Left, Left, Walk Forward, Get On The Dragon' Windmill - 'Tokyo Moon' Hotrod Cadets – 'Fly' / 'Hello Shotgun' The soun

Listen here , though I'd love you to subscribe ! After the punk of last week, and following a course at IBM, my brain felt very tired and worn out and in need of a rest. Hence this week's more acoustic, laid-back feel – just the tonic for a weary mind and body, weakened by talk of 'architected solutions', 'cohesion' and 'granularity'. Whatever happened to good-old plain English ? Peter Bradley Adams – 'Always' The Morrisons - The Man With Nothing Left Edd Hillman - Wasted Dreams / Something Better The soundbed was 'The Drowning Calm' by The Balustrade Ensemble Three

Listen here or use the player on the right, though I’d love you to subscribe ! This week, TFL comes over a bit punk. I seem to have had quite a few punk / alt-punk / ska-punk submissions recently, and I felt the time was right as I was particularly pumped-up and energetic at the time [...]

Listen here , though I'd love you to subscribe ! This week it's a very special TFL to celebrate the release of Robin Tymm's 5th album, 'Fatal Flaw'. A regular favourite here on the podcast, Robin himself explains the stories behind the songs. [tag]Robin Tymm[/tag] – 'Big Sky', 'Fatally Flawed', 'Shorter Fatter', 'Plan B' The soundbed was 'Etherea Borealis' by Aurah Three From Leith theme-tune by Alex Aitken

Listen here , though I'd love you to subscribe ! For once I feel rather short of words, though listening back to the show I somehow still manage to spout forth for the usual time ! I just put the brain into gear and the mouth goes into automatic... perhaps that's where my daughter gets it from, rather than from her mother !! Heh heh... Anyway, the ladies go first this week (I'm being well trained, you see) so let's get started Santogold - LES Artistes Ian McGlynn - Memorial Day Parade Peter Bruntnell - Perfume River / K2 The soundbed was 'Etherea Borealis' by Aurah

Listen here , though I'd love you to subscribe ! And the heat goes on... you know it's unusual when you wake up on a Saturday morning and the outside sensor is wirelesly beaming back the fact that it's 21 degrees centigrade at 8am, whilst the indoor reading is showing that it's touching 30 in the bedroom. This is almost too nice to be Scotland at the start of June. But hot it is, and so's this week's musical selection. And I'd just like to say "THANKS, COLIN !!" because I unforgiveably forgot to mention it in the podcast – Colin Gazeley of the Ourobouros Podcast kindly recorded the Rosal

Listen here , though I'd love you to subscribe ! Wow – what a cracking and totally unexpected Saturday of sunshine and heat, with the tar melting in the roads. It took me back to the summer of '76, when I was Jasna's age and we had weeks of sweltering summer heat where the pavements were melting too. Ah, memories. But enough wallowing in nostalgia, it's time to consider the now and the new, and three great new bands to the show: Ever Since The Day - Stay Silent Blip Blip Beep - Okay Lover My Brother Woody - Getting Old Goes With Getting Fat / Wish I Was A DJ The soundbed

Listen here , though I'd love you to subscribe ! Another week of eclecticism – Swedish Americana, Scottish Dub and Devonian C86 Jangly Pop; not something you'd ever hear on your local radio playlist during a single show ! Recover from your Bank Holiday excesses with a podcast guaranteed to ease you back into the hell of work... Swedish Polar Bears - Rewinder Lion Of Joppa Soundsystem - Earth's Rightful Ruler (2008 Version) The Morrisons - Down To The River The soundbed was 'Etherea Borealis' by Aurah Three From Leith theme-tune by Alex Aitken
