4:38
Amber Beresford, better
4:40
known to the
4:42
world of music
4:45
as Rainbow Frog
4:47
Biscuits. Amber Beresford-She's
4:49
an angel, and
4:52
I'm nothing special. She's
4:54
in the penthouse, and
4:57
I'm at ground level. Too
4:59
low to be a loser while
5:01
she gets all the flowers. I'm
5:05
a minute, and she's
5:07
twenty four hours. I'm
5:10
too small for her to see,
5:12
but in my mind we work
5:14
perfectly. Oh won't you kindly look
5:17
my way? You
5:19
really must believe me
5:22
when I say, I
5:25
never really believed in the
5:27
idea of soul mates
5:30
till today. And
5:33
clearly I was stupid yesterday.
5:48
She's a forest, and
5:50
I'm just a mushroom. I
5:53
smell like nothing, and she
5:55
fills corridors with perfume. She's
5:58
a sin. I can't be
6:00
found She
6:03
is my one So understand
6:08
I'm too small for her to see But
6:11
I will die of some of this
6:13
pain Lord, you hold me
6:16
My will She
6:18
will not believe me I
6:21
see I never
6:24
believe She's my one And I
6:26
hear a story I
6:29
was born We
6:33
are secret yesterday But
6:35
if you beat me off sometimes My
6:37
love would be replaced If
6:40
you picked up a just-out glance So
6:42
that our eyes would just connect For
6:46
a second, or a minute Or
6:48
a day, or just a moment
6:51
And your love could hear me say Won't
6:54
you kindly look my
6:57
way You
6:59
really must believe me When
7:01
I say I
7:04
never really believe In the
7:06
eye and the air I'll show you I'll
7:10
show you I'll
7:25
show you I'll show
7:27
you Lay
7:31

7:33

7:37

8:02

8:04

8:11

Stay away from God. By

14:20
Manning began his Banned Spectra
14:22
project as a therapeutic endeavour,
14:24
he says, to combat a
14:26
decline in my health, resulting
14:28
from multiple sclerosis. Featuring
14:31
guest vocals by Jade Cook of
14:33
City Parking and a welcome
14:35
dollop of 70s motoric can vibes,
14:37
it starts again, it's his first
14:39
release of 2024 and
14:42
was sent our way by Melita
14:44
Dennett at introducing Insusix and Sury.
14:47
Before that, courtesy of DJ Roche
14:50
in Manchester, we heard Lay
14:52
Lo, a life-affirming new single
14:54
from Bolton rapper Superlative, a
14:57
celebration of patience, positivity
15:00
and unwavering commitment. And
15:03
the first in that run of
15:05
tracks was the tender and understated
15:07
Stupid Yesterday by Rainbow Frog Biscuits.
15:10
It was sent our way by Dean
15:12
Jackson in the East Midlands, as was
15:14
this new stonker from The Public Eye.

And then dreamy in an entirely
24:23

31:56
I'm going to sit upside down first for my
31:58
quenches. I never have to
32:00
do for the government, do you? I'm
32:03
currently grateful and briefly eternal because
32:06

32:17
Do I should just...
33:34
That's Fruit by Banbury
33:36
rapper artist, producer and
33:38
eco-warrior Empress Linoleum. And
33:41
her unique artist name makes it
33:43
fantastically easy to search out her
33:45
music online, and us grumpy old
33:48
radio types can only wish that
33:50
more musicians would follow her example.
33:53
It was forwarded from Introducing in Oxford
33:55
and Berkshire by Chris Wood. Before
33:58
that, Sitting Bourns is... indoor pets
34:00
waxing wrath about our capital
34:03
city, dying by the
34:05
living wage, trying to repress my
34:07
rage, London is the place I
34:09
love, the place I love to
34:11
hate. A follow-up album
34:13
to their 2019 debut Be
34:15
Content is expected this year and
34:18
London Loves to Hate was sent
34:20
our way by Abby McCarthy at
34:22
BBC Kent. And
34:24
before that, Never Ever Ever,
34:27
featuring Shiv by Girls of
34:29
the Internet. Their
34:31
list of cultural influences
34:33
includes RuPaul's Drag Race,
34:35

34:37
Lee Bowery, Spike Jonze,
34:39
Chaka Khan, Stereolab and
34:41
Charlie Kaufman. Lindsay
34:44
Gillies, who produces BBC Introducing in
34:46
Scotland, sent us a couple of
34:49
tracks this week starting with a
34:51
folk song from north-eastern Iran performed
34:53
by The Other. I
36:30
know, I know, I know I
37:01

40:06
Do you feel older in
40:09
you seeking? How
40:17
you are moving, how
40:19
you are moving? Do
40:27
you feel this? I
40:30
know you're there Until
40:36
now When
40:40
you fight me
40:44
I can see it And
40:46
all that you hold Will
40:56

40:58
with me
41:01

All
41:22
tonight All
41:27
tonight All
41:38
night All
41:42
night All
41:47
night I
41:52
wave by my window Waiting
41:55
on your eye I
42:00
was in such a distance and
42:03
in resistance it made me bring for you
42:07
So I lay on my doorstep, waiting
42:12
for your home moon Her
42:16
blood array pulls my legs, finally
42:18
leaving my heavy head and getting
42:20
thin So
42:24
I lay in the garden, waiting
42:28
on your sunshine For
42:32
when we were me I would be
42:35
so green and free of my own
42:37
self-esteem I
42:40
will be for you I
42:48
will be for you I
42:53
will be for you
42:56
I will be for you Waiting
43:00
on your eyes Even
43:05
like a bear I don't think you're really
43:07
there Why are you deceiving
43:09
me now? So
43:12
I will be in the bakery I
43:16
will be for you Put
43:20
me in the fridge today tomorrow on
43:23
a baking tray and sell me in
43:25
the window So
43:28
I lay in the car farm Made
43:33
in the trolley pan Even
43:37
in the kitchen tray I will be
43:39
for you I will be for
43:41
you I
43:45
will be for you I
43:49
will be for you
44:00
So I'll
44:04
go to the hospital. Three
45:24
tracks back to back. First
45:27
we heard Sagodar, S-E-G-O-D-A-R, by
45:29
The Other, a
45:31
collaboration between Scottish-born musicians and
45:33
those with a lived experience
45:35
of displacement and immigration. In
45:38
this case, singer Arif Gourbani was
45:40
also playing the traditional Persian lute
45:43
known as a satar. Then
45:46
came the deep, rich, immersive sound
45:48
of Tonight by Evie Friesen from
45:51
Just Outside Ipswich. Her
45:53
music has been supported on BBC Introducing,
45:55
first by Jake Peach and now
45:57
by Matt Plum at Introducing in
45:59
Essex. and Cambridges who sent us
46:01
the track. And
46:03
Lindsay's second tip from Scotland was
46:06
the deeply atmospheric track we just
46:08
heard, The Arrow. It's
46:11
by a Livingston outfit called
46:13
the Tropicarnas, ironically named they
46:15
tell us, in deference to
46:17
West Lothian's often gloomy weather
46:19
and the band's own longing
46:21
for warmer climates and surfier
46:23
times. Next
46:26
it's Saturday night and I don't
46:28
want to go out again, because
46:30
it's cold outside and my mum
46:32
made cauliflower cheese. Friday
46:34
night and
46:36
I don't want to go out again I
46:42
wish I was somewhere with
46:44
my friends This
46:48
morning makes me want something I'm
46:51
gonna say to them I
46:55
got a scrape on my legs from the last
46:58
time I talked to them and
47:02
I'm still can't slide in a
47:04
fight at home These
47:11
walls every single
47:14
day I
47:16
don't know where it's from I'm
47:19
feeling it here growth

47:38

47:52

47:55
calling for a change I'm

48:07

make me sound like
55:01
you Those
55:51
three minutes of fresh, adventurous
55:53
electronic pop from Lily Juniper
55:55
rejoice in the grammatically puzzling
55:57
title of You Me F...
56:01
It's from an upcoming EP called
56:03
Words and was shared with us
56:05
by Jessizat from her introducing show
56:07
on BBC London. And
56:10
before that it was DJ
56:12
Shaq who forwarded Perseid 45
56:14
from the self-titled debut EP
56:17
by the hard-rocking northeastern quintet
56:19
Django Flash. They
56:21
recently shared both a stage and,
56:23
very kindly, their backline with my
56:26
band at Three Tanners Bank in
56:28
their hometown of North Shields. And
56:31
reopened with the outstanding new single
56:33
from Annabelle Lorraine. Her
56:36
vivid evocation of small-town teenage
56:38
life cauliflower cheese was
56:40
today's second tip from Melita
56:43
