Red squirrel stretches for nuts.
And So I Watch You From Afar - BeautifulUniverseMasterChampion
Memory Tapes - Today Is My Life
Huey's 6 Music Independent Record Store Day mix
Another fine selection of free downloads for you, with a bit of an American bias this week.
Kicking off is Vampire Weekend's Ezra Koenig's version of Paul Simon's Papa Hobo, then it's over to Belfast for a track And So I Watch You From Afar's forthcoming album. Jim James' My Morning Jacket also offer up a forthcoming album track, the title track in fact, before Memory Tapes from New Jersey chip in with their effort.
We close the week and preview tomorrow's Independent Record Store Day with and exclusive five minute mix by DJ Yoda of Huey Morgan's choices from the very limited edition vinyl.
It showcases six five minute mixes featuring the Top 20 Independent Record choices of Lauren Laverne, Jarvis Cocker, Cerys Matthews, Radcliffe & Maconie, Huey Morgan and Steve Lamacq.
6 copies of the promotional vinyl have been sent to each of the participating Independent Record Stores to giveaway on a first come first serve basis.
The links for all of this week's five songs are listed below and in honour of Wednesday's star guest, Mr Bootsy Collins, we invited you to send in a picture of your definition of funky. Many thanks to Alexander Richards of Fife for this star shape throwing Red Squirrel.
If you don't have chance to go down to a record store you can download all the mixes on the 6 Music website.
