Thursday's House Music feature produced some gems, with Nick Grimshaw inviting listeners to email clips of everyday objects accidentally making music. Martin's wife Karen was caught misting her houseplants in a rhythm that turned out to be Blue Monday by New Order, prompting Nick to declare "I got it immediately when I heard this, Martin." Anne and Evie in Dudley sent in a new toy whose yapping sounded uncannily like the start of The Prodigy's No Good, while Thomas described a faulty windscreen wiper on a nostalgic Volvo estate that somehow launched him into J Dilla's Workinonit.

Nick also teased a brand new track from David Byrne, Let Me Sell You a Dream, revealing it was originally meant to go out earlier in the week but got bumped because "we talked too much." He mentioned Byrne has book talks coming up in London on 8 November and Brighton on 9 November for his book Sleeping Beauties, joking "can we get him on the radio programme… let's get him on one morning."
