Hate to lead you to think Caspa and Distance has made a track together. Just two dark, metallic and wobbly bass tracks for you to enjoy straight off London.

Three songs today to please the eardrums of the funky and the soulful. Promos off upcoming releases by Domu and Kylie Auldist (The Bamboos) and Kidkanevil collaborator Laura J Martin.

Bright and cheerful selection inspired by bright blue skies and white fluffy clouds. We have tracks from Christian Prommer, Nomo, Pat Metheny, Chaz Jankel and Horst Jankowski! Come inside!

Marnie Stern the lovable mathrock/indie guitarist from NYC is playing live today @ Babylon Istanbul. We’ll be there trying to singalong and shred our airguitars. Plus : Twitter Watch 4 with news, interviews and music from John Zorn, Marc Ribot, Bullion, Madlib etc.

Starting the week today is a 6 piece African music selection that I’ve been distilling in the last few days, 2 songs off Strut’s Nigeria 70’s compilation and songs from Tony Allen’s upcoming album, Mamou Sidibe, Starband No.1 de Dakar, Occidental Brothers etc.

Inspired by Sputnikmusic’s Math Rock Genre report I’ve selected a few math/instrumental rock tracks both old and new. Adebisi Shank, DD/MM/YYYY, The Dragon Rapide (RIP), Cheval de Frise, Mudy on the Sakuban
