Adam Walton Adam Walton | 13:32 UK time, Tuesday, 1 November 2011

This week's show celebrates as broad a swathe of Welsh music as is humanly possible to squeeze into three tiny hours.

We glory in the melodic craftsmanship and elevating strums of Paper Aeroplanes, recorded live at this year's Focus Wales festival. Four wonderfully arranged acoustic renditions of songs from their catalogue.

They're one of the UK's most accomplished duos - and have earned broad ranging support from Radio 2, 6 Music, Radio Wales and the national media. There's no pretence, no artifice, just great, memorable songs and a voice that'd charm a piranha.

At the other end of the sonic scale, something likely to excite piranha to the point of spontaneous combustion - if it's possible to combust something under water. Colwyn Bay's Jay Robinson has earned himself a reputation as one of Wales' finest floorfillers and speaker shakers. He's a brilliant DJ, but also a producer par excellence. And both facets of his talent are in evidence during the 20 minute mix he's performed for this week's show.

Huw Williams comes in to remind us of the fleeting excellence of Tredegar's Alan Phillips, Ben Hayes reminds us that there was much more to Demis Roussos than billowing kaftans and Forever And Ever and Lara Catrin translates something excellent from Sibrydion.

Elsewhere it's all about the music. There are debut plays for Myrmyr, Knickers, Rezaloot, Malcom Gales, Fourth Autumn, Wearebrightstar and Alex Davies.

Please send new releases / demos / gig info / left over Trick or Treat sweets to: themysterytour@gmail.com

Many thanks/diolch o galon, Adam Walton.
