Dustball recorded four Peel sessions, including a live set from Maida Vale in 2002 as part of celebrations to mark the fifth anniversary of Oxford label Shifty Disco, although the band were basically inactive by that point, with only Stuart and Anderson remaining from the original lineup. The first single and album of the label, a big Peel favourite, had both been by the band.
The band also featured on Sounds Of The Suburbs: Oxford (Channel 4, 1999), including a brief interview with Peel.
