Freakmaster General Maconie presents 120 minutes of not-normal songs that range from desolate and challenging to shiny and beautiful.

Two hours of musical brainstew courtesy of Great Uncle Stuart. Each week, Freakmaster General Maconie presents 120 minutes of not-normal songs that range from desolate and challenging to shiny and beautiful. Expect lush soundscapes, banging beats, angular guitars and tender instrumentals all within minutes of each other, presided over with fathomless knowledge by your gracious host. Not exactly what you'd call mainstream, but it cuts deep and oozes non-pretentious musical profundity.

Road-weary Stuart is back from the world's greatest festival to spin yarns about the freaky music that he's voluntarily exposed himself to at Glastonbury, including live tracks from Battles and Everything Everything. There's a whiff of normality too, as his Featured Album is from Scottish postmodernist Momus.
