#364 – Mungo’s Hi Fi ft Solo Banton, OCH, BLK JKS, Comité Hypnotisé, Alison Cotton, 梁奕源 Liang Yiyuan - 28 March 2022
Summary: <p>Plenty of exceptional experimental workouts on this week’s Independent Music Podcast, starting off with a wild change of direction from Comité Hypnotisé, whose new record marks a wild change of direction from last year’s Dubs Pour Oh La La – one of our favourites from 2021. The new direction is equally magnificent though, drawing on a wide range of influences to create something great.</p> <p>Across the pod, we have minimal drones from China’s 梁奕源 Liang Yiyuan and an exclusive first play of the superlative OCH release on Rocket Recordings. We also have a healthy dose of acid – with the blistering track from Kharkiv artist Metadata, and the latest from Part Chimp drummer Drumm Chimp.</p> <p>Elsewhere, we have a cracking track from Nick Klein, raising money for the Red Cross in Ukraine, an always-welcome return from Solo Banton, a sublime avant folk masterpiece from Alison Cotton and more.</p> <p><strong>Tracklisting</strong><br> Comité Hypnotisé – The Dragon Rider (Cortizona, Belgium)<br> Better Dance – Backwards Dance (The state51 Conspiracy, UK)<br> Nick Klein – Pfefferspray (iDEAL Recordings, Portugal)<br> OCH – Bolid (Rocket Recordings, UK)<br> Mungo’s Hi Fi ft Solo Banton – We Pulsating (Scotch Bonnet Records, UK)<br> BLK JKS – Maiga Mali Mansa Musa (Glitterbeat, Germany)<br> 梁奕源 Liang Yiyuan – 靈抽 Convulsions of the Spirit (WV Sorcerer Productions 巫唱片 , France)<br> Alison Cotton – Violet May (Rocket Recordings, UK)<br> Metadata – Just Tell Me True (Childsplay, UK)<br> Drumm Chimp – See Saw (Wrong Speed Records, UK)</p> <p>This week’s episode is sponsored by The state51 Conspiracy, a creative hub for music.
