Inside No. 9, Episode #9: I tell you everything, just not out loud. 1969-2020 With an ever-polished sound to the current underground music output, I found myself returning to DIY and experimental recordings that itch a long-dormant lo-fi scratch. This came about after going through old tapes and CDs, where I fell back in love […]
Inside No. 9, Episode #9 Nine Tons for Free 1975-2922 This has been a joy to put together. Spurned on by some recent reissues of crucial records from the avant-garde. This mix is almost 3 hours of some of the most eclectic, far-out, full-on, and subtle experimental music you’ll ever hear. From classic improv sessions […]
Inside No. 9, Episode #7 (part two): My Cat is an Alien – Branches soaked with memory 2004-2015 I discovered My Cat is an Alien (MCIAA) via an issue of The Wire magazine back in the mid-00s. I was drawn to the stories of their Western Alps studio and homemade toy instruments. My love for […]
Inside No. 9, Episode #7 (Part 1): Andrew Chalk – Everything, in a moment, and then forever gone again 2006-2022 I have been a fan of Andrew Chalk and his label Faraway Press since discovering his record Goldfall back in 2006.

Inside No. 9, Episode #6: Streams of Sound 1979 – 2022 This month I entered a realm of rich ambient soundscapes traversing 43 years. Ambient music is one of my go-to genres.

Episode #5: When I Sing, Mountains Dance – a collection of pieces to accompany the book by Irene Solà Here are a collection of songs I put together to accompany my reading of the book ‘When I Sing Mountains Dance’ by Irene Solà. I can’t recommend this book highly enough. She rights with a deft […]
Episode #4: Black Truffle Recipes (part 2) 2016-2022 And so we enter part two of our Black Truffle feast… I open part two with a piece of incredible music. Behrman is a wonder and his compositions scratch an itch with me that rarely gets a going over. It’s timeless music that feels like it transcends […]
Episode #4: Black Truffle Recipes (part 1) 2016-2022 I have been a fan of the musical works of Oren Ambarchi for a long time. I discovered his work through releases on Touch Records and his collaborations with both Sunn O))) and Jim O’Rourke. I got heavily into his Black Truffle label about 5 years ago […]
Episode #3: Selected Audio Tapes 2011-2022 I returned to my shelves of cassettes for this mix after a determination to pick up more tapes this year after a brief hiatus, and because I’m running out of room for vinyl in my apartment. This mix features several old favourites of mine, including Fennesz and Klara Lewis, […]
