#427 – Gallops, Paavoharju, Vumbi Dekula, Mårble, Infested Monastery, Fotocopia - 25 September 2023

Opening tracks can be deceiving, but as soon as the beautiful,
delicate sounds of Swedish Congolese artist Vumbi Dekula have
drifted into field recordings of bees, things turn a little
nastier, with Infested Monastery and the latest from
Moonworshipper’s Arcanist.


Elsewhere there is fabulous jazz from Armenia, metal from
Kazakhstan, industrial noise from Barcelona, didgeridoo drone,
ghost stories from Finland and a whole lot more.


You can listen to the first six tracks for free. To listen to the
