Music Is None Of Our Business

We go through our Top 10s of 2025, with detours into overpriced records and merch, a rambling explanation of Hauntology, rating Jake's jokes out of 10 and the usual old rubbish.

We discuss some amazing gigs we've been to as well as moaning about the distress of having to change trains at our age, falling over as opposed to having a fall, time travel via extreme volume and all of the usual shenanigans.

We each pick 5 songs that we really, really like. That's a nice simple one. We also cover Jive Bunny, band names with swear words in them and whether it's appropriate to use said swear words, while obviously using them, rubbish remixes and lots more pointless old rubbish.

We pick some of our favourite male voices. We also discuss singing with an accent, gravelly voices, the role of wankiness in Prog rock, along with the usual sophisticated humour and discourse you've come to expect.

We compile some of our favourite cover versions. There are also obscure Kids TV references, saving the world from alien invasion via the medium of bad karaoke, plus the usual going off on tangents, bad jokes, amnesia and general lack of professionalism.

We reminisce about 1997. Dave almost finishes a sentence, Jake is as erudite as ever. There are Marianne Faithfull cards making a racket, forgotten gigs, at least one reasonably funny joke, an astounding amount of Instagram views and all the usual mishaps.

Dive into a celebration of powerful female-fronted bands! Enjoy lively discussions on chaotic noise from Big Stick and Yanna Trance. Dave shares his love for The Shangri-Las' dramatic hits, while Jake explores the intensity of Jill Dredd and Brooks and Maria. Discover Blondie's genre-defining pop-rock influences and Koti Tahova's fierce punk anthems. Don't miss insights on Marine Girls' lo-fi beauty and the haunting sounds of Portishead. With laughter and guffaws, the hosts reflect on the richness of this music scene!

We investigate the musically fruitful year of 1989. Dave's memory proves as reliable as ever, Jake get's a new DJ moniker.

The ambient episode. Chill out as we discuss our favourite ambient LPs, and along the way touch on Dave's precarious mental health, Jake's escalator technique, crackling, ghostly voices, and even a couple of serious bits. Plus stay tuned till the end for details of Music Is None Of Our Business bingo!

After the 2 hour compilation marathon, an hour long sprint through a few brilliant singles. Allegedly. We still managed to go over an hour, even with only five picks each.
