Back with a blast, it's the Big Dada Podcast, irregular and precious as the April sunshine. With brand new music from Roots Manuva, Wiley, Speech Debelle, Dobie and the brilliant Bang On!, it's not the cruelest month after all. The legend that is Sticky makes a guest appearance in our regular feature, the name of which has never been clear but which involves choosing a track that was a formative influence. Needless to say, he's picked a good 'un. All of this and more is effortlessly weaved into one seamless whole by the one and only A La Fu. He even finds a chance to get all Aberdonian on your derriere. Get it quick.

Somehow, amongst the desperate scramble to release Wiley albums, attend (or avoid) Xmas parties and refurbish Big Dada Towers, we've managed to stuff a Christmas stocking of a podcast until its very seams are stretching. There's new music from Speech Debelle, Roots Manuva, Bang On! Dobie and of course, Wiley himself, who's even contributed a Christmas song he made 'specially (well, he made, at least.) Dobie talks about a song that influenced him, and picks a cracker, and it's all effortlessly held together by our very own Bing Crosby - the velvet voiced A La Fu. Pour yourself a brandy, sit back and enjoy. Happy holidays!

Badda-bing-dadda-do, it's the return of A La Fu with the latest in an irregularly brilliant series of Big Dada Podcasts. This one is sort of the equivalent of one of those huge American ultra-sandwiches that refuse to compromise on consisting of absolutely everything that you just might possibly want and then some. The difference is, the podcast is possible to consume without getting mayo-glued-turkey all over your chin. There's absolutely brand new and never before heard music from ROOTS MANUVA, for one thing. Not one, but TWO new tracks from his forthcoming album, 4everevolution. Sitting between these like slices of free-range grass fed cow are exclusive unveilings from Bang On! and DELS, the new summer anthem single from Wiley, new material from Elan Tamara, a classic from the vaults and a special feature from Bang On! It's so good it should be unhealthy.

Belated yes, but for some excellent reasons we're sure you'll agree. The new Big Dada Podcast features brand new music from DELS (who in Zane Lowe's opinion has an outrageous approach to the game... It feels like sky's the limit with DELS) including the wondrous remix of GOB by TV on the Radio's David Andrew Sitek. There are not one but TWO exclusive tracks from the forthcoming Wiley album, 100% Publishing, a sneak preview of Offshore's new EP, live music from Paris Suit Yourself, the new single from Bang On!, and a track from the debut Big Dada EP by Elan Tamara. All of it is lovingly blended by our usual purveyor of pertinent music, A La Fu. Go on, take it, its yours, now skedaddle.

The brand new Big Dada Podcast makes it just in time for Christmas, just like that package from Amazon you're hoping arrives before the 24th. With new music from Bang On!, Roots Manuva, Paris Suit Yourself, Tommo and Offshore, there's also a special guest song from DELS collaborator and rising star Elan Tamara. Offshore takes centre stage in our regular 'influential tracks' feature. The Aberdonian Big Dada element is completed by the ever comforting, Christmas-tones of A La Fu. He's our very own Bing Crosby. Enjoy, have a great holiday, and see you on t'other side.
