Totallyradio genre: indie

OG OR MAN 128 – It’s The Spirit Of It In celebration of Clem Burke, drummer and primal force behind rock, pop and disco legends Blondie. This week’s show includes the arch tub-pummeller himself and, inter alia: prog rock, psych rock, art rock, heavy rock and alt rock from Manchester, a further explosion of genre hops from around the world, including Spain, Italy and Australia. And Irish music with a modernist twist from near my Mum’s in Ireland. OG OR MAN – music to put you in a right mood.

This month on The Keep Slack Album Club I'm joined by Robyn Rocket to talk about her debut album ‘Robyn Rocket and People You May Have Heard of’. As well as discussing Robyn’s early musical loves, how the album came about and the recording process, we also talk about Robyn attending SXSW, making mixtapes for Christmas presents and the album she overplayed almost to the detriment of her parent’s enjoyment. To hear all this, and more, press play now...

This week it's a top list of new music including a quick look at the growth of the UK folk scene, some New Orleans Garage rock n roll and a exclusive first listen to a new single from Modular wizard Polypores. You should give it a listen.

A new sighting and site for Japan Blues. The debut for the new monthly show peeks through the obscure tea-house window of psychedelic music, in late 1960s Japan. Covering lysergic productions and groovy, woozy pop. They may not have sipped much kool-aid, but they had their own take, and the technology. Paisley Madras jacket, jack to fuzzbox, faze and reverb set to maximum, turn on…

Neon Crabs, Silverlake, Mask In The Dust, Bratakus, Dead Things, Pere Ubu, Black Rainbows, Le Volume Courbe, Heiko Maile, Princess Thailand and more.

This week on the show: Brìghde Chaimbeul, GMO, Antony Szmierek, Kilynn Lunsford. KXB & Thrush, Tomu DJ, Maiya Blaney, Index for Working Musik, Noble Rot, bergsonist, The Bug Club, Raisa K, Jadu Heart, Baby Volcano, N NAO, Satomimagae and much more.

90 minutes of brand new underground sounds. Including two pieces of warped pop from the new Ohyung album, the avant garage rock of House of All, wayward electronics with Marie Davidson, glorious bedroom pop from Phoebe Green, smart-girl punk courtesy of Ladycork, the lo-fi house of Shaolin Cowboy, and plenty more besides. From out of the vaults come a sublime love song from The Royal Family & The Poor, the art rock of John Greaves, plus The Flying Lizards with a James Brown cover. Not forgetting this week’s soundtrack music selections, which come from the 1973 whodunit ‘The Last of Sheila’ and Dionne Warwick with the theme to 1967’s ‘Valley Of The Dolls’. Dig in!

Brand new tunes from the likes of Tony Njoku, Obongjayar, Loyle Carner, Divide & Dissolve and more!

From NYC: order and disorder, a freeform haze of garbage guitars, shorted electronics, found detritus, collage, linear songs, sounds from strange lands.

A look into Shoegaze, Dreampop, Post Rock and all sorts of dreamy sounds from around the world with added ramblings in a weird hybrid accent. In association with https://www.whitelight-whiteheat.com/ [Listen live on Slack City - fortnightly on Sundays at 10pm]

This week it's a lonely studio for your hosts but it is filled with love for the politically charged alt rock band from Bradford Drella. V&J play songs from Drella's live Slack Sunday Session at Daltons & chat to the wonderful Jonny on the phone about the band & what the future holds and it's looking bright in Bradford for Jonny, Toby & Alfie. Also the usual mix of fab new music.

In this 10th episode of record club A.V. considers the relative similarities of a few original vintage recordings and plays a bit of rock'n'roll and surf. She also plays an intriguing new version of a lesser known George Harrison track by guitar impresario Robin Nolan. Madonovan keeps them both happy by playing The Space Agency and relates one of his typically surreal stories about the time he accidentally met iconic rocknroller Dick Dale and obtained a unique vinyl signing.

This week on the show: Jadu Heart. Djrum, catbandcat, Revival Season, Maiya Blaney, Infinity Knives & Brian Ennals, Internet Girl, Chinese American Bear, Gorgeous Dykes, Sorry, April Magazine, KXB & Thrush, Moin, Warrington-Runcorn New Town Development Plan, Stereolab and much more.

Chaps at war have better things to think about than what suit and tie combination will go best with the Oval Office carpet. Any basically decent human being would get that. Which is precisely why Trump and Vance don’t. This week’s show as ever celebrates non-conformists, the brave, determined and quite, quite mad, including, inter alia: truckloads of new releases from Manchester encompassing heavy psych, dreamy electro-pop, celestial disco and punky dance rock, and from elsewhere ambient country (whatever that is), punchy hip-hop, ethereal prog-pop, meditations on good and bad presidents, and poetry from Manchester and Dublin, . And industrial rock from people called Kim. OG OR MAN - Music to put you in a right mood.

90 minutes of brand new underground sounds. Including two tunes from the debut album by Welly, a new single from Stereolab, liquid electronica with Rodolphe d'Audiffret, the deep grooves of Greentea Peng, infectious electro pop courtesy of The Hellp, an epic piece from Infinity Knives & Brian Ennals, plus plenty more besides. From out of the vaults come the fierce rock of Destroy All Monsters, ultra minimal techno from Underground Resistance, and a pop-sike gem from Linda Ronstadt’s first band The Stone Poneys. Meanwhile, both of this week’s soundtrack music selections come from 2009. Namely Marc Canham’s score for the immaculate thriller ‘The Disapperance of Alice Creed’ and a song by Karen O from Tim Burton’s charming ‘Frankenweenie’. Dig in!
