#415 – Mungo’s Hi Fi x Pupajim, Godflesh, Kristin Hersh, Yikii, Angel-Ho, Pan African Peoples Arkestra - 19 June 2023
Summary: <p>A rollicking hour of experimental music action on this week’s Independent Music Podcast, where an intro of colourful, DIY, Japanese ambient-pop lulls you into a false sense of security as ferocious tracks from Guinea-Bissau, South Africa, and the inimitable Godflesh punctuate throughout.</p> <p>But there’s subtlety amongst the power, with a roots-flavoured new one from Mungo’s Hi Fi, a stunning track of the year contender from China’s Yikii, and a beautiful solo record from Throwing Muses’ Kristin Hersh.</p> <p>You can listen to the first six tracks for free.
