Delphine Dora's "D'une nostalgie inconnue" feels ageless. Improvised piano and harmonium from rural Portugal, interlaced with street recordings. Languid repetitions, solemn timbres. Beautiful and forlorn. Read a new interview on Foxy Digitalis w/ her about it and loads more!

I'll never forgive Bono for writing "Sunday Bloody Sunday" as a both-sides-y obfuscation of what happened that day (or for singing it in honor of Israel while the Gaza genocide was starting up)

Now playing: S/Z by Christians. "Christians is an improv project that appears in various configurations led by Vancouver guitarist Jeremy Stewart... Exhilarating sounds recommended for fans of Fushitsusha, Caspar Brötzmann Massaker, Last Exit etc." fortevilfruit.bandcamp.com/album/s-z

RIP Sly Dunbar. Here's a lovely edition of the South Bank Show all about the wonderful Sly and Robbie. A few people were asking to see it, so I've uploaded it to YouTube and I'll leave it there until Monday. Hopefully it'll get a proper repeat soon. youtu.be/M-cuOdr6DpQ

Currently spooling: The Devil, Probably III by Shiroishi/Reviriego/Trilla. "The third volume of the ongoing project by Patrick Shiroishi (saxophones), Àlex Reviriego (double bass) and Vasco Trilla (percussion)...finds the trio at its most abstract." fortevilfruit.bandcamp.com/album/the-de...

Neil died two years ago. My colleague, my friend. Here is the episode we never wanted to make. He was full of rage, joy, eloquence, a one off. Rage in piece, Neil. shows.acast.com/chartmusic/e...

If you've only just discovered us, you really need to put the latest episode on hold for a bit and listen to this. x

Israel bans white Western journalists from Gaza (I have volunteered to go there) so it can murder brown Arab journalists with impunity - mind you, I'd say they'd have no qualms about killing us too, if they had the chance. And the West's response? Silence and complicity.

The first two Coltrane biographies were published in the spring of 1975. Both refer to an event at the historic Church of the Advocate in Philadelphia. But the details have remained a mystery, until now John Coltrane and Sonny Fortune, September 3, 1966 lewisporter.substack.com/p/coltrane-a...

Tonight's hall of fame. Thanks for listening! And thanks to all the artists and labels for making and sharing their music. We are back on Feb 18th with the usual fare of ambient, drone and experimental music.

At a glance without my specs on I thought this track ran away and left its wife for a young one

CHART MUSIC #77 PART TWO: A comprehensive breakdown of Tony Blackburn's 1971, Britain's Grooviest Granny, and what Ed Stewart thinks of Hot Pants....

Strong editorial in today's Irish Examiner. Apartheid Israel's genocide of Palestinians rages on and the so-called international community, including Ireland, allows and enables it. We will never forget, and we will never stop fighting for freedom for Palestine. #GazaGenocide

This week, on Oh! Brother, we were delighted to welcome producer and On‑U Sound founder Adrian Sherwood. Adrian talks us through first meeting Mark E. Smith, working with The Fall on Slates and Extricate, and the studio tricks (and “anti‑production” ethos) that shaped those records. (+)
