[peel] Happy Otter Mixtapes

[RobF]

Hi Stuart

I just filled in a few of the unknowns on the wiki for this new Happy Otter
mix (One Thousand Violins, Darling Buds and Awesome Dre)

http://peel.wikia.com/wiki/HO_John_Peel_9_1988_1989

Still quite a lot of unknowns, most of which sound like grunge imports, and
one that I'm sure Rocker must know as it sounds like a Talulah Gosh/Shop
Assistants/Flatmates girl-fronted band with the chorus that sounds like "We
need to dance more" repeated several times


For the ID of the Awesome Dre track I used the brilliant whosampled.com
site for clues if you've not seen it?
