A founding member and leader of seminal British indie rock band The Wedding Present, David Gedge and his music have long been championed on alternative radio, from the late, legendary BBC DJ John Peel in their early years to steady support from KEXP over the past two decades also with his band Cinerama. Gedge's exclusive mix for Midnight In A Perfect World provides a wonderful glimpse into the wide-ranging sounds that capture his ear, sneaking in tracks from bands such as Stereolab, Explosions In The Sky, and even Napalm Death.
