PURPLE TURTLE 31/05/26 3PM - 10PM

Oxford’s Baby Maker prods at the carcass of influence, reconstituting the remnants of dark funk & wonky proto-punk into moody, low-slung grooves peppered with pointed lyricism. Latest single “Inguhlund”, a curt reaction to the current flag-shagging epidemic, is the latest & greatest taster of what’s to come from his upcoming E.P. “Packed Lunch”, due for release on licence on the 19th June.

@please_ban_music have finally had some success in their 2 year campaign to rid Reading town centre of all live original music. A landmark moment today as their petition to the council has seen this event be forced into moving venue at the 11th hour to @thegreyfriar RG1 1PA.

@certainsound_records vinyl DJs from 7:30
Live music from 8 with @rhaineforrest

come see Baby Maker take a new bold step into musique concrete trio formation

Hi there. Excited to announce that the next collection of B.M. tunes “Packed Lunch” will land in your lap on the 19th June. It will feature previously aired pop sensations “Inguhlund” & “Rather Be In Berlin”alongside 3 other tracks. It runs in at about 15 minutes- the optimal time to consume a no-crusts sandwich, crisps and drink.

To commiserate this release, @omsmag2026 in collaboration with @akoustikanarkhy are putting on a cracking gig featuring the talents of @getnermcr and @shallowdaze.band at @thelibrarypub on Saturday 20th June. To further calcify the Manchester-Oxford connection, resident mancunian @octaviafreud has been enlisted to man the decks between sets.

This will be the first Baby Maker performance in Oxford to feature live drums. You are in for a treat. Jam sandwiches all round. Buy a ticket now to avoid all-consuming despair later.

Skin like that don’t come from Inguhlund

Narrowly available tomorrow 23.04.26

The deXter Bentley Hello GoodBye Show. An upbeat, eclectic new and live music show hosted by deXter Bentley every Saturday lunchtime between 12:00-13.30 hrs [GMT] on Resonance 104.4 FM (London) and Pawarota Radio (Poland).

On Saturday 21st February expect live music with Baby Maker + Mark Newlove. Plus, any remaining contributions from my recent Resonance FM fundraising spectacular The Pay-As-You-Go Hello GoodBye Show.

Oxford’s Baby Maker cherry-picks and prods at the carcass of influence. His designer dog pop slop is the hard-won result of a painstaking process to reconstitute remnants of funk, new wave, and playful observational lyricism.

https://baby-maker.bandcamp.com/music

‘Mark Newlove composes his own songs in a bewildering mix of styles ranging from folk, pop, rock, sea shanties, psychedelia, country, and more. His is a palette of tuneful landscapes peppered by Alan Bennett type lyrics. Observing the small details of life and then blowing them up is his forte. But he’s also so much more than this’ (Mac McCoy).

Two chances to get yr fill this week

@thelibrarypub Thursday
@theapothecarytap Friday

First up, truly honoured to have given myself the nod to play this gig supporting @gagsalonband alongside a now stripped back @doopsband. Maybe I should rename to Nepo Baby Maker for this one. Come early and be rewarded

Then warming things up again in Banbury prior to friends @mystbisc for @strummerroomrecords. Yowza
