 * Astrid: 'Modes Of Transport' (Peel Session)
 * (JP: 'There is, I have to admit, I cannot tell a lie, a sense in which this programme is pre-recorded, because the John Peel wing-ding posse, as we absolutely never style ourselves, is currently, probably, working its way back from the south, no, from the very far north rather, of Finland, up in Lapland, where we've been at an event called Levitation, featuring a whole bunch of bands that we've never heard of in a place that we can't find on the map, as of even date, but doubtless we will have found it, and will have had a throoughly good time, and are probably even now picking our way back through the howling wastes of northern Finland. But then tomorrow night's programme will come, all things being equal, will be coming from Radio Mafia in Helsinki. It's gonna be fantastically exciting.')

 * (tape flip)
 * (JP: 'I've been doing programmes for Radio Mafia, recording them here at Peel Acres and shipping htme out to them, for frankly nobody knows how long: about 15 years or more. Never been to Finland in my life, so it's going to be quite an exciting night for me tomorrow night, and hopefully it won't be too bad for you either.')

 * Ruins: 'Hard Rock Medley (CD-Pallaschtom)' (Magaibutsu) (cuts out before the end)
