An absolutely exquisite set of sounds on this week’s Independent Music Podcast, with soothing dubs, Uzbek field recordings, and J Dilla-esque vibes pervading through a blend of modern classical and ferocious happy hardcore.

Some pod favourites are on absolutely top form, with mesmerising new music from Jessica Moss and BIG|BRAVE, as well as a 19-minute synth piece from Portugal’s Tiago Sousa providing a superb close to a truly splendid set of tracks.
