#343 – Warmduscher, Yikii, Ka Baird & Pekka Airaksinen, Tara Clerkin Trio, Deemas J & Interrupt, Proc Fiscal - 11 October 2021

After our week away last week, we have a truly sublime selection
this week. There’s a real record of the year contender out of
left field from Chinese artist Yikii, who blends classical music
with post-industrial haunted Chinese nursery rhymes, there’s the
last recording from Finnish experimental pioneer Pekka
Airaksinen, and the latest ace new record on Wrong Speed from
Nape Neck drummer Mia La Metta.


Elsewhere we have trip hop jazz fusion from Tara Clerkin Trio,
the first taste of Warmduscher on Bella Union, percussive
experimentation from podcast favourite Ilia Gorovitz and lots
more.
