If anything is gonna leak out of your headphones make sure it’s the velvet tones of Rob & Callum of the If There Is Hell Below podcast, here to serve you, hopefully what our focus will deem  ‘good enough’.
So, Quelle Chris is back on the pod but with (for our money) his best tune yet; Ducktails provides further reason for Real Estate to split up and just concentrate on their superior side-projects, there’s a dark beat cloud closing in from mysterious instrumental doom hip hop group 3:33, Drenched/soaked reverb psych from Sun Machine, Gangsta Boo & Sinjin Hawke provide a dancefloor monster and we finish with God-like figure Robert Wyatt and something from his collection of unreleased material from ’68. There’s more besides, the focus group thought it ‘will do’.

Classic driving rock is what you can expect from Rob and Callum, at least at the top of the pod,
the rest is music perfect for your favourite muesli and furniture shop adverts.
Nah, it's pretty hip hop heavy this week, good hip hop not Dad hip hop, at least it isn't Dad hip hop yet...  So there's ace new tracks from pod favourites Guilty Simpson & Small Professor, Freddie Gibbs & Madlib  and Mello Music Group's L'Orange & Stik Figa - duos.
Non-hip hop we have a kraut-prog-space-funk-ballad from Klaus Johann Grobe, the Byrdsian guitar of Young Sinclairs and Tony Molina: prince of the 90 minute face-melter pop tune.
There's more, it's all inside and all ethically sourced.
