With a sparkler in their top pocket, Rob and Callum present an altogether more family friendly music podcast.
There’s some soaking denim punk rock from Pissed Jeans, French psych prog rock from Aqua Nebula Oscillator, US Civil Rights inspired hip hop from Real J Wallace, shoegaze from Cheval Sombre and Nothing, some nerdy vinyl festishism for Light In The Attic’s latest Lee Hazlewood boxset and more besides in this thoroughly wholesome podcast.

Over the next hour and a bit of If There Is Hell Below podcast Rob and Callum will transport you to a special place; a village where the townsfolk have been seduced by a mysterious stone dwelling cult,  where stinking Musk will lure ANY French woman, where a Bald man exists in a white room wearing a shiny overcoat making sterile synth pop and where the President of the USA is a regular subscriber to the greatest music podcast recorded in a small flat in Kentish Town.
The soundtrack to this place consists of the jazz-fusion electric-era Miles Davis aping of Fontanelle, the post punk coldness of Total Control, the Flying Lotus approved hip hop of Captain Murphy, the 1960s replication of The Haiduks and the hairy heaviness rock of Golden Void and Socrates.
There are more mysteries inside this podcast, only listening will complete the picture.

Throw up your W’s Callum is back from NYC; Rob’s just been waiting for him in his flat, with open laptop and mics for the 99th If There Is Hell Below Podcast.
We chat about minimal (again), the logistics of Scrooge McDucks coin swimming (again!?) and Rob just chats at Callum about the perfect murder.
Music comes from Ducktails, 80s French electronic act Tokow Boys provide the argument for good minimal and Useless Eaters provide some fuzz with Addicted to the Blade (there’s your references for a radio link masterclass).
A Miguel remix has that 90s Bad Boy flavour given further prestige with a P. Diddy feat., Something Nu from the Wu and latin hip hop Summer Madness from Karriem Riggins.
Young Governer, The Resonars  and Super Vacations provide your instant hit of power pop and always regular dose of garage.
There’s more too, can’t give everything away in the blurb...

This week, Rob and Callum not only provide the hip hop world with some brand new skits they can fill their albums and mixtape with but also come equipped with a fine selection of tracks that have aroused our ear nodules.
We fawn over Paul Westerberg and his first track in years, Action Bronson takes us under the sea with Zinedine Zidane, tracks from Jason Molina and Donovan & Michael Tapscott take us on a folk tangent, Oh No and Chris Keys bring a film-noir chill, Field Music re-imagine the Godly Robert Wyatt, there’s some long lost French soundtrack proto-metal tribal fuzz and Italo-hip hop prog crate digging... There’s far too much going on in this episode, have a listen for yourself.
