Thursday sees the Chinese New Year and the beginning of the Year of the Goat. We had thought of doing an all-goat show but there’s a disappointing lack of good goat-based music out there. So instead we take you on a journey around the whole Chinese lunar calendar, with a track for each of its 12 animals, including a bonus goat track for good measure.
