The Prisoner of Mars - A Night Out In The Wrong Shoes


Earlier this year Cambridge musician came on the show to talk about his latest crowd-funded album. The album has been recorded and copies sent to supporters. Everyone else can pre-order it via Bandcamp and listen to the selection of tracks. It's a delicious blend of disco, funk and weird synth gubbins. As Prison of Mars himself puts it: "I pull sounds from here, from there - chuck them together and vomit them into the ether. Many duck for cover, others are willingly hit in the face."
