Episode 400: Don’t Look Behind You

The Epileptic Gibbon podcast music show

This is the 400th edition of the Epileptic Gibbon podcast music show and the playlist to accompany it. You can CLICK HERE TO DOWNLOAD but note that the shows are large files. The show is also available to stream via Mixcloud and the Progzilla Radio Network (the show appears on Progzilla in alternate weeks). Following the recent celebrations of the real 400th eppysode of this show last time around, it’s now that time of the year again, so for this show we have the return of the diabolical Count Eppy Gibbon as your ghoulish host for this year’s Halloween special. We have a feature artist on this show, Kavus Torabi, and you’ll hear three tracks from or featuring him throughout the playlist, ahead of his headlining spot at this year’s Chrimbo Limbo 3 on Saturday 28th December. Other than that, you can expect the usual eclectic mixture of music, only with a bit more of a spooky theme this time around. Below you’ll find the track list, plus weblinks from where you can find more information about each artist.
