Andrew Ashong in session

Gilles is back for another Saturday afternoon mix-up selection with British-Ghanaian musician Andrew Ashong joining him for a live session.

This week Gilles is back at 6 Music for another Saturday afternoon mix-up selection and joining him for a live session is British-Ghanaian musician, Andrew Ashong.

Andrew's debut release, Flowers, was released on Theo Parrish's Sound Signature imprint in mid 2012 and was subsequently chosen as Gilles' Track of the Year at the 2013 Worldwide Awards. His follow up EP, Special, arrived at the start of this year to much acclaim. His own music aside, Andrew is a vinyl-lover and is often found spinning an eclectic selection of new and old tunes across the UK and abroad.

In this programme, Andrew performs two tracks live on the show and as usual, Gilles joins the musical dots between soul, hip hop, house, afro, electronica, jazz and beyond, in his own inimitable style.
