Rob and Callum welcome you to the golf club, it's a place for the good people to be and a place where the podcasting elite should be; rubbing shoulders with admen, governmentmen and oilmen. All of whom predicted witch house was never gonna catch on.

An elite podcast calls for elite sounds: Dudley Perkins, Bronze Nazareth and Dudley Perkin cover the Hip Hop ground with tales of loose women and smoking, Theo Verney represents the great and good of heavy British garage rock, ALAK provides some woozy-dub-pop and there's something from the Kurt Vile & Sore Eros EP.

There's more inside the podcast, just subscribe, listen and spread the word.

Rob and Callum return from a two week holiday break – finding themselves, finding themselves enraptured in the final laps of Breaking Bad (no spoilers) and engrossed in their own crime fantasies as realised on GTA V. I’m sure you may have been doing the same?

There are a couple of tracks based on two said topics with one of Rob’s favourite songs used on Breaking Bad and some cuts from a Grand Theft Auto themed beattape but that’s where the links stop as we play something new from The Liminanas, a Ubiquity records jazz-punk reissue of Black Randy and some power pop from No Bunny. There’s also Stones Throw first foray into rock with Surface To Air Missive and a sighting from Gonjasufi on the new Perera Elsewhere record.
There’s more besides - no spoilers.

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.

Rob and Callum present a podcast, the audio equivalent of a court room scene painted in pastel and photographed with hashtagnofilters. You get that reference, right?

Our jury is music and… I’m stopping this courtroom blurb theme.

There’s some great music on this podcast: Cass McCombs is back with some good singer-songwriter shit, Fat Joe delivers an ‘I’m off to slammer’ farewell with help of DJ Premier and Action Bronson; there are hip hop instrumentals from Oh No and Ahnnu; a track from Dean Blunt’s latest free to DL album; MJ from Hookworms latest project Family Scraps and more.

Rob and Callum try to attempt a level of professionalism but with a nagging desire to slander some of music’s most powerful and respected coupled with unexpected door-step guests, this can often evade.
Praise be that possibly 70% of these podcasts are papered over with great music as chosen by these broadcasting rogues.
That 70% includes Boogarins a Brazilian psych outfit, so-called avant-garde pop group Virginia Wing, tight-harmony noise-pop from Regal Degal, a new ones from Parquet Courts, Together Pangea, Matthew E White, Eagulls and more.

Note: there’s a moment where audio goes a wee echoey, bear with it and enjoy the ride.
