Full of abstract and lofi electronics, this week’s podcast lulls you into a false sense of security this week before blitzing you with the 175+bpm of Judgitzu. We’re only just recovered with the beautiful noise of Frankie and Joachim Nordwall before a triumphant return of jazz’s favourite living Pharaoh Idris Ackamoor.

Elsewhere, we have dubs from Prince Fatty, Kirstin Hayter’s new Reverend Kristin Michael Hayter moniker, the Tokyo-Caribbean-German Grace Jones, and a whole lot more.

A podcast of exceptional music and bad puns this week, as we travel through the genres, including spooooky drum and bass from Basic Rhythm, Palestinian folklore from Maya Al Khaldi, and thunderous psych rock from Osaka’s Hibushibire.

We also have three pretty special collaborations, including Sarah Davachi and Quatuor Bozzini, Abu Ama and BedouinDrone, and YCO founders AYA and BFTT. Throw in some Russian rock, club bangers, and a long awaited return of The Haxan Cloak, and you’ve got yourself a very tasty selection.
