The New Arts Desk Radio Show 6

Peter and Joe bring you indie, electronica and sonnets from around the world and beyond

by Joe MuggsSaturday, 2 August 2014

The utterly extraordinary Dakhabrakha

Due to summer festival mayhem and a technical glitch or two, June's show is here slightly belatedly - but it's more than worth waiting for as it's an absolute beast of a two-hour spectacular.

Peter and Joe are culturally globetrotting as ever, and bring you everything from Philadelphia space-travellers to Shakespeare-repurposing Ukrainian revolutionary cabaret troupes; dreams of Fife to dinner with one of the USA's most important composers; Finnish supermarket-themed indie-rock to ambient Mexican grime. Tune in, turn on and bug out...
