LISTEN AGAIN: Peppermint Iguana Radio # 179 – Iguana Rides Again

This was our first show for a month, and boy did we have some new beauties for you.

The play list included dub from Canada, Drum and Bass from France, Ska-punk from Brighton, hip hop from Bristol and punk rock from the south wales valleys.

And as we went out live, Tara Iguana was celebrating twenty one years on the planet, so this entire show is dedicated to her.

Listen again below innit

  6. Sacred Dub: BY DUBMATIX From the new album King Sized Dub. Canadian prouder with a prolific output. This is part of the Echo Beach Kings Size dub series. The idea behind this particular release is to share some of the remixes, dubs and alternate versions Dubmatix use for touring along with a few new dub tracks.

  8. The Breitbart Boys: BY SLOW FACTION New release, free to download on the Bandcamps. London boys looking back to the old skool punk vibe with political lyrics. This one references the alt-right media that is stirring up hater throughout the world. A bit like Katie Hopkins, who has been stirring the shit in Wales this past week.
  9. Drive BY BARSTOOL PREACHERS From the brand new album Gracie Governo, which is getting rinsed at iguana HQ at the moment. Fantastic album from Brighton based outfit that have seriously impressed us live this year.
