#269 – Félicia Atkinson, Coucou Chloe, Гласность (Glasnost), 3phaz, Awkward Corners

6th April 2020

It’s a rollercoaster on this week’s podcast. We start hard with the acid-tinged punk of Гласность, we move swiftly through searing mahraganat from Cairo’s ever-blistering 100copies label, on to abstract electronics, bass-heavy jazz and electro-cumbia. All rounded off through jazz-tinged hip-hop. It’s a journey to savour.

#267 – Pigs Pigs Pigs Pigs Pigs Pigs Pigs, Clap! Clap!, Roll The Dice & Glasser, Kaitlyn Aurelia Smith, JP y Los Marcianos Galácticos

23rd March 2020

In these strange times, this may be the last ‘proper’ new podcast for some time. We will keep the feed awash with great music, but we’re not 100% sure whether we’ll be able to record new shows in the manner you’ve come accustomed to.

Despite the uncertainty, there’s still a whole lot of new exciting music out there, and – as usual – that’s what we want to focus on. Whether it’s Uruguayan garage, Italian dub techno, or Glaswegian DIY non-jazz, we’ve got the good stuff for you.

If you can, please support bands, artists, record labels, promoters, and venues at this tough time. Without them the world would be a much poorer place.
