On this week's programme we feature music from Recordiau Ankst Records, which was founded in 1988 and which was one of the leading record labels in Wales for alternative music, including rock, hip hop and electronic based music. The label was at their peak in the 1990s and probably was the second leading label for rock music in Wales during that decade but after management split their activities in 1998their recorded output and influence declined, though several important Welsh artists remained with Ankst (later formally known as Ankstmusic) until the end. Sadly, label cofounder Emyr Glyn Williams, or Emyr Ankst as he was known, died in January 2024 and the label apparently has now come to an end. Featured artists on this special programme include Neil Rosser, Steve Eaves, Gorky's Zygotic Mynci, Ty Gwydr,Beganifs and the band most associated with the label, Datblygu.
