#415 – Mungo’s Hi Fi x Pupajim, Godflesh, Kristin Hersh, Yikii, Angel-Ho, Pan African Peoples Arkestra - 19 June 2023

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.


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.


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