Eclecticism goes hand-in-hand with the Independent Music Podcast, this week it’s featuring everything from experimental electronica to traditional folk music via tropicalia and ferocious punk.

Anthony brings a lot of lush instrumentation to a fairly chilled episode, with the dreamy Hydromedusae, legendary Shirley Collins, and fabulous Scottish trad folk from Brìghde Chaimbeul. Gareth brings a bit more abrasion, including the supreme collaboration between Scotch Rolex and Shackleton.

You can listen to the first six tracks for free. To listen to the full episode, get a huge back catalogue of music, and access to our live shows and Discord group, please join our Patreon: patreon.com/independentmusicpodcast. The podcast only survives with Patron support.
