Stuart has raided the archives and features his top highlights from the festival’s most experimental acts ahead of 2021’s virtual edition. Along with a brand new socially-distanced session recorded this year by Black Country New Road, Stuarts looks back on an exhilarating performance by Anna Meredith from the 6 Music Festival 2020 held in Camden. Plus, more sets and backstage interviews from the station’s very first festival held in Manchester in 2014 with the The Part Time Heliocentric Cosmo Drama After School Club’s joyous tribute to the Sun Ra Arkestra and the pioneering and legendary Radiophonic Workshop.

Elsewhere on the show, philosophical extreme metal from New York, intense Indonesian avant-rock composed with homemade instruments and brooding euro-dance inspired electronica from Norway.
