Minus Kendal trods the outer reaches foraging for aural morsels, slinging you a monthly smorgasbord of sultry sonix from trenchcoat folk to silicone synthwave.
There's an old Brian Eno quote that is inevitably referenced when talking about the Velvet Underground - something along the lines of "They only sold 30,000 copies of their first album, but everyone who bought the album started a band". It's slightly inaccurate (they sold a lot more copies), but the message is clear: few bands have had such an outsized, potent, and wide reaching effect on the musicians that followed in their footsteps. Their stubborn desire to continually approach songwriting from the left field, and continuous sonic reinvention reverberated for decades, influencing punk, post-punk, art rock, ambient music, even notably influencing real political revolution in Czechoslovakia. Two hours of The Velvets' best, selected and mixed by Claire Rousay.

Dennis Greenidge (born 15 July 1950) is a singer and cartoonist from London, England. Dennis previously had several media-related jobs, namely with National Screen Services and Film Garage, and had worked as a cinema usher. Since the late 1990s, he has gained attention for his art and sound work; initially Dennis promoted himself by offering his artwork for sale to several independent shops in Notting Hill, London, then by bidding his services as a character designer and animator to various UK-based video game developers. His work was soon chronicled in the short film Greenidge Meantime, premiered at the 8th New York Underground Film Festival in 2001. Subsequent to this, posts made by fans to several web forums and social networking sites have served to provide Dennis with the unexpected attention he now enjoys. His popularity has even inspired a Dennis Greenidge covers band, Telescöper, who have recorded their own interpretations of many Greenidge classics. On 24 November 2007, the compilation album Giant Man, Giant Plan was released by the Mordant Music record label.
