We're back from our adventures at Green Man Festival (check out the pictures in our group pool on Flickr) and just because we love you, we've recorded a special Green Man podcast. Which means this month instead of one podcast you get TWO. Don't say we don't spoil you.
This one's an (almost) entirely live music podcast, recorded in Einstein's Garden, so there are no iTunes download links, but you'll be hearing from: Jonny Berliner, Phatmattbaker & Oort Kuiper, The Sound of the Ladies and Sibelius. You can find videos for a couple of the live performances in our last post.
You'll also hear from Andrew Glester, the man in charge of Polar, a project that sets footage of the Arctic and Antarctic to classical music in a live concert. You can reserve tickets for the first performance in January here. It sounds beautiful.
EXCLUSIVE: Octopus, I Love You - Dalmatian Rex & the Eigentones
Dalmatian Rex played the Reproductive Stage at the Geek Pop '09 virtual festival. You can find links to buy their albums at their website.
Subscribe to our podcast feed through iTunes or Google. It's like, totally free. That's not all though. You'll also receive a bunch of free music downloads from our previous festivals. And if you're looking for the online archive, it's here.

Since last Thursday, the Geek Pop crew has been roaming the wet, muddy fields of the Glanusk Estate in the Brecon Beacons. The Green Man Festival is over and lovely though it was, we're glad to be back in the warm and the dry and are nursing welly blisters...
Anyway, there will be many more highlights from Einstein's Garden - where some of our artists played - on the next Geek Pop Podcast, but for now, content yourself with this video playlist. Sorry to all the bands we couldn't catch because our camcorder battery ran out... hence it cutting out near the end of Jonny Berliner's first song. (We tried recharging it in using the bikes at the amazing pedal power stand, but to no avail).
We've also uploaded our photos from Einstein's Garden to our Geek Pop group pool in Flickr. Please feel free to add your own if you were around for Geek Pop artists.
Finally, Geek Pop has it's own radio show! (Albeit for one weekend...)
Geek Pop Podcast host Jim will be taking to the airwaves on Green Man FM at Green Man Festival in Wales. He'll be plugging Geek Pop artists playing on the Solar Stage and generally bigging up the Einstein's Garden area of the festival. You can listen at 87.7FM around the festival site, online at GreenMan.Net or in iTunes, or listen again with MixCloud. All the links are here. Also, follow @GreenManFM on Twitter. Here are Jim's slots:
3-5pm, Thursday 20 August
1-3pm, Saturday 21 August
Yay!
