#347 – The Eccentronic Research Council, Trupa Trupa, Juçara Marçal, Bad Tracking, Sophie Cooper, VÄLVĒ - 15 November 2021

<p>London label Mais Um’s ear for extraordinary music from Brazil continues unabated with the exceptional track that opens this week’s Independent Music Podcast. The music of <strong>Juçara Marçal</strong> is relatively new to us, but the first few bars of her astonishing track ‘Crash’ sink their hooks into you very quickly. It’s a stunning way to get going.</p> <p>What follows is an otherworldly journey through genres, with a little more guitar than usual this time around. We have the debut EP from Irish indie punks <strong>M(h)aol</strong>, experimental trombone folk from Yorkshire’s <strong>Sophie Cooper</strong>, dub techno workouts from <strong>Autumns</strong> just to name a few.</p> <p>We also have the blistering collaboration between Sepultura co-founder Iggor Cavalera, Venezuelan electronic producer Cardopusher, and Dwid Hellion, founder of early hardcore trailblazers Integrity, coming together as <strong>Corroded Spiral</strong> on pod favourites Phantom Limb.</p> <p>If that’s not enough. We throw in some Greek electronics, modern classical, Polish punk, and a little bit more for good measure.</p> <p><strong>Tracklisting</strong><br> Juçara Marçal – Crash (Mais Um, UK)<br> M(h)aol – Laundries (TULLE, UK)<br> Sophie Cooper – Goodbye Gemini (Borley Rectory, UK)<br> Bad Tracking – Black Rew (Avon Terror Corps, UK)<br> Christos Chondropoulos – Jungle X (The Death of Rave, UK)<br> VÄLVĒ – Retrace/Repeat (The state51 Conspiracy, UK)<br> Corroded Spiral – Forgotten Ether (Phantom Limb, UK)<br> Trupa Trupa – Twitch (Glitterbeat Records, Germany)<br> Autumns – Eating On The Ground (Touch Sensitive Records, UK)<br> The Eccentronic Research Council – Face Creams &amp; Virile Men (Desolate Spools, UK)</p> <p><em>Produced and edited by </em><a href="http://www.nickamc.com/" rel="noopener" target="_blank"><em>Nick McCorriston</em></a><em>.</em></p> <p>This week’s episode is sponsored by The state51 Conspiracy, a creative hub for music.
