The Sounds in My Head is a biweekly music show featuring songs and bands you might have missed. Hosted by Daniel since 2004.

Musically The Sounds in My Head attempts to be fairly eclectic, but probably tends to lean towards "indie pop" music. Also, I try to squeeze in as much left-wing propaganda as possible between tracks.

Jumboottaw ,

Such a great music podcast

I've listened to this podcast for more than a decade and it's been consistently great. I signed up to itunes just to write this review I like it so much. Superb music, great commentary and lots of little things thrown in to suprise and delight the listener.
Keep up the great work!

Mr.Galbraith ,

Talks too much!

No, not really. Every episode is great. I enjoy the talking. And the audio clips. And yet the music remains the star of the show. Made with love and taste and humour.

Jeff DS26 ,

Always

Generally very good, and a gem or 2 personally every episode. Many new found bands. Thanks so much for this.
