Bottom of the Pops is back with another 2 hours of new tunes and a couple of oldies that have earwormed me this past month.
Everybody is going a bit potty about Montreal's Angine de Poitrine. Micro-tonal rock is the new thing (or it isn't really) that said I like what they are doing and if you have any inkling of love for the likes of Beefheart, King Crimson, Zappa , the Fall etc etc you'll find that this duo will snuggle up to you like and old new duvet you never knew you had.
There's also new tunes from Baxter Dury, Massive Attack, Get Down Services, Appleblim, Gurry Wurry and others.
In terms of new releases, I'm a big fan of an outfit called Badtime and their tune Polezei, I'd also recommend Hedgeburners from Melbourne, Carsie Blanton, Soweto's BCUC and my absolute favorite is the very noisy Trance Bill from Cirebon a small city on the north coast of Java.
Enjoy the show

Powered by Audioscrobbler™Field Commander Ali is the solo project of Ali Mollica, a folk song person living on the South Coast of NSW, Australia.With a voice that balances understated vulnerability with determined stoicism, Mollica describes everyday scenes & passing interactions. Despite its modest conception, both the songs and recordings are possessed by a unique density. Layered vocals are used undramatically but effectively. There is an intimate spaciousness within these songs too, with shuffling pages, creaking chairs, and distant whistling all entering the sonic sphere.
