Winter is coming, and there are some ice cold tracks on this week’s Independent Music Podcast that provide a stunning soundtrack for longer Northern Hemisphere nights.

Elsewhere, Anthony Parasole brings his Full EFX project to the podca...

Even by our exacting standards, this episode of the Independent Music Podcast is out of this world.

Sitting between a rock and a hard place is a happy place to be when both sides are as ferocious as some of the music on this week’s Independent Music Podcast. Whether it’s the thundering opening from Finland’s Yleiset Syyt or the more outrageous metal of More Death and Horror, those rip-roaring guitars are leaving their mark on this week’s show. Elsewhere, the thunder continues to strike with hip-...

We’re setting out our own club night on this week’s Independent Music Podcast. Well, it might not quite seem that way whilst we’re playing avant-industrial Afghan folk music, soul, or big band numbers, but rattle through breakcore, acid house, and techstep-infused gqom and you’ll be soon moving a bit more freely. To listen to the full episode, please join our Patreon : patreon.com/independentmusic...

We’ve never really put much value on genre descriptors – the best music seems to be a meld of influences that creates a new sound altogether – and it’s just as well with this show, where we have no words to describe whatever the music of Inhumankind is. We also have a cracking new one from Nihiloxica member pq, whose new record on Lapsus takes you on a journey between club workouts and contemplati...

After last week’s podcast saw artists stretching out the length of their tracks, this week’s sees some of the world’s most exciting independent artists consolidating into shorter tracks of delight.
