    Goldfrapp aka Alison Goldfrapp and Will Gregory are the latest artists to step up to Now Playing's coveted 'Tweet seat' as they control the playlist, shaped by listeners' suggestions via social media.

    The duo are set to release their sixth album, 'Tales of Us', on September 9, featuring lead-off single 'Drew'.

    Goldfrapp first unleashed their glam brand of electronica-dance-pop back at the start of the new millennium with 2000's ambient 'Felt Mountain'. They have since claimed an Ivor Novello Award, as well as bagging Grammy, BRIT and Mercury Prize nominations along the way.

    In this Now Playing special, Alison and Will will be live in the 6 Music studios with Tom Robinson and the team, and want listeners to help them select the songs they will play over the two hours.

    So what's likely to get their seal of approval and make it onto The Ultimate Goldfrapp Playlist? Maybe it's tracks from collaborators such as Tricky or Orbital for whom Alison was a guest vocalist? Perhaps it's their musical inspirations that range from John Barry to Van Halen via Kate Bush? What about celebrated remixes of their tracks by The Flaming Lips or DFA? Or maybe you simply want to hear your favourite Goldfrapp track? Get picking...

  • I'll be voting for Prince, Scott Walker, a bit of classical and some Portishead.

    First two should get votes from Alison and the last two from Wiiiiiiill :)
