The Hawkbinge Podcast

Well worth it!
Excited for the vinyl to turn up.

Never really connected with the 1st album - until now. Stephen W Taylor's new mixes, especially the 5.1, are sensational. Looking forward to the vinyl. Gorgeousl set from Cherry Red 🚀🚀🚀
Great essay from Rob Godwin, and a pic of the Friends zine that I have!

Rock and Role Book: Joe Banks on Peter Hammill, Van der Graaf Generator and the Art of Endless Questions - It's Psychedelic Baby Magazine Joe Banks portrays Peter Hammill as an artist driven above all by questioning, someone for whom songwriting is a way of thinking aloud. Even at his most ambitious, Hammill emerges as a figure constant...

Klemen Breznikar kindly interviewed me about Peter Hammill and the book for It's Psychedelic Baby. I feel this piece offers a particularly good insight into my guiding thoughts around PH's music and presentation... Thanks Klemen! www.psychedelicbabymag.com/2026/01/rock...

Cheers Philip! 🙏

Cheers Joe! 🙏

The tour was a lot of fun ✌️😎✌️

Ep 29: the pleading post 🥺 We don't do this for ads or status, we'd just love to reach as many old and new Hawkwind fans as poss and share Matt's journey. Ratings, likes and reviews are HUGE for us, given our irregular schedule. Would really appreciate it if you can...
🚀🚀🚀

Highly recommend the film "sisters with transistors" to get into how these pioneers shaped the future of electronic music. Amazing stories, amazing people 🚀

Delia Derbyshire and Brian Hodgson – The Legend Of Hell House album cover. A photograph of a woman dressed in black with a silver crucifix around her neck. The photograph also has some intentional, psychedelic distortion.

"The role that women played in [early] electronic music was so important. Daphne Oram, Suzanne Ciani, Delia Derbyshire..."

It's one of my favourite versions of that track ✌️😎🤘

Absolutely, and the key thing is that Matt has no knowledge of what tracks are fan favourites, live staples or whatever, so it's a choice made in a vacuum in that way, which is quite fun 😎

Thanks Philip! It's an eclectic one. Interesting to push Matt to have to choose just one each time for this. It'll be a very interesting one when the journey is complete!

Ep 29 The Hawkbinge Master playlist - Matt's singular pick from every album covered. Matt's choices are rarely obvious given his 'new listener' pov, so it's an interesting listen, especially on shuffle.

And here is a different back cover than the one we spoke about on the podcast. On the next podcast we'll be able to give Rob his due - it seems he's still active on Hawkwind forums and it'll be great to be able to give him some recognition for his efforts back in the 90's
