The Tump Clump #59 - 21/05/2026

**Edit**

Well it seems I wrote this but forgot to publish it.  Sorry!

 

Episode 59 of the Tump Clump comes hurtling at you like a wet sock from the basement.

Tonight I announced that this is the penultimate edition of the radio show in its current format.... time for me to try something different.  I have come to the realisation that I'm just not listening to, creating, or enjoying as much dismal  / noisy / droney sounds as I once was... and I feel a slight disconnect from the music I am playing.

 

Here is a newt I found under a slab in my garden 

 

Perhaps because I've spent a lot of time listening to my former love of house/techno/electronica, and rekindling my passion for DJing.  So, coming soon to SoundArt radio, a new show from me, playing deep house / leftfield tech house / some outsider electronica... but all mixed from vinyl.  Some of you may enjoy that! Some maybe not.  But keeping true to myself, I feel its where I want to explore next. So keep an ear out for 'Dartmoog' coming soon. 

So I may return to the Tump Clump in the future.  And as for Soloman Tump... I still have some unfinished sounds I am working on.  Its certainly not the end for that little project.  

Here is tonights tracklisting.  Everything can be found on Bandcamp if you do a little search.  This months 'Noise Compilation of the Month' comes from Pukehammer Records who were having some issues with censorship on Bandcamp.  Booo.  They were looking at alternative hosting platforms when I last searched - I hope they find a new home.  They will soon release a follow up compilation which will hopefully feature a brand new Soloman Tump track.  Good luck in your quest!

I hope you enjoy the show.....

ЯUMHUM : MUHMUR

My internet friends over at Blacksmith Noise Records have released ЯUMHUM, and you can stream / download / purchase / acquire / listen to it here!

 ЯUMHUM includes a slightly edited version of my live recorded on the Muhmur Radio shows back in 2025 (and I do mean slightly... just a little trim of the phat at the start and the finish, plus some light EQ fairy magic dust....otherwise, kept completely as it was broadcast).

The release also includes ones of the practice sessions performed at home whilst I figured out what I was going to be doing on the show.  The alt session shares some DNA, whilst other bits are markedly different.  Take a listen and see what you think? 

Original post for the recording / show can be found here... 

Tracklist:

			1. ЯUMHUM 26:38                2. MUHMUR 27:03

 

 Thank you to Saint Elisabeth and Séraphitüs-Séraphîta for hosting my sounds on their excellent and expansive Blacksmith Noise Records label, and best of luck with the fundraiser for their new van.  Perhaps by purchasing this release (or any of the others on the label!) you can help them out too. :)

 

The Tump Clump #58 - 23/04/2026

It definitely feels like spring now.  The Oak tree at the end of the garden is starting to turn green, and there have been some newt sightings in the Tump family pond....

So now, a clutch of apologies.  

1) Gravelly voice - plague acquired from kids. Thanks!

2) Pronounciation of various artist and track names once again. I shall never learn!

3) The inclusion of the Tump Wassail broadcast that was originally aired on SoundArt back in January when the Acid Morris took over the Things Happen Here venue for a night of rave and electronic fun. 

A nice little collection of noises for you this month, starting off with recent new fun favourite cornish semiconductor corporation... I hope I can hear some more new sounds from this project soon! If you like the track, its available for free download at their bandcamp, so go seek it out.

The Dis och Dimma track is from the momumental Svartfåglar compilation that I recently purchased from Mima Kass - hours of lavish noise and live recordings in a truly dismal style. 

Hope you enjoy this little collection as we steamroll towards episode 60... am thinking I might do something different for that.  And also, it crossed my mind, maybe it will be the last of The Tump Clump in its current format.  Perhaps a break to try something different?

01 cornish semiconductor corporation - from a forgotten lode (east wheal maid chalcopyrite trio)

02 Cumsleg Borenail - Dream Grunge (Wrapped In A Carpet And Kicked To Death)

03 Dis och Dimma - Gässen flyr hösten (Svartfåglar)

04 Kirril - 09-25 - 12-25 - 03 III

05 Worm Monolith - Fugue State - 02 Cave Dweller

06 Séraphitüs-Séraphîta + anna bortionist - numinous tapes IV - 02 lacunae - anna bortionist

07 Séraphitüs-Séraphîta + anna bortionist - numinous tapes IV - 03 peccávimus - Séraphitüs-Séraphîta

08 Soloman Tump - Live @ Do You Wassail? <SoundArt original Broadcast 17.01.26>

The Tump Clump #57 - 26/03/2026

O to the M to the G!

Throught darkness and filth I totally forgot to update the blog with the tracklist and stuff for the March Tump Clump! Thanks to the 2 people who nudged / reminded me. It proves that people do actually listen and are interested in the music that I play...

I recorded fresh after visiting SoundArt studios for the Water Is The Sun Ritual Fever album tour.  A fantastic evening, which started off with Exeter's own Al Fresco Skronk Squadron.  The sound built from a few sources, played out through various battery powered speakers that were subtly moved and adjusted across the performance to give your ears something fresh every now and then... samples looped and layered (including an electric toothbrush head) made for an interesting evening indeed!

Water Is The Sun are an exciting duo combining vintage tape manipulation, synths, samples and a ritual visual element. I was captivated by their performance as it ebbed and flowed through gentle strange passages and noisier energetic moments.  The Higher Close studios where SoundArt is based is also a great space for a performance, so check it out if you are in the area. 

So here was the last selection:

01 Hideous Gomphidius - The Stench of a Foul Stinkhorn (Apparitions of the Sporeborn) - s/r

02 Nomad Tree - Enter the dark of Caverns (with Lee Riley) (Shadow Dance) - Aphelion Editions 

03 Riders - Slow Horses (She Is Not Alone) - Eustress Tapes

04 Stephen Bishop - Grave Stele (Jerusalem Artichokes) - Opal Tapes

05 BLACKSMITH - Smithy (Blacksmith Shop in Burlington, N.D., 1880) - Destroy All Music

06 Carnivorous Plants - Phantoms (Copper) (And From That Moment Hell Entered My Heart)

07 German Army - Kaieteur Mist (Pyura Chilensis)

08 raxil4 - t (covet- 6 pieces for sampler, synth + reverb)

09 Hoodrat Messiah - Perennial - 01 Foxglove

10 aLICE kEMP - 9 Dreams In Erotic Mourning - 08 The Painting In The Chapel Under The Stairs

11 Edward - Voices of Spirits (March 2026 demo)

          12  Soloman Tump - Random Loop for HW#7 

Big up the expertly lit merch table that looked far too tempting, and im glad I purchased a bundle of tapes (including the Ritual Fever album, recommended!).  Until next time,....

 

The Tump Clump #56 - 26/02/26

Well this episode really crept up on me.

January felt like it took FOREVER, and February breezed by without a care in the world because I had been so dang busy with in real life stuff.  But, I think I managed to 'pull it out of the bag' because as ever there is some great music being created out by a whole raft of lovely folk from across our strange planet.

So generally a mixture of slightly old, new, and brand new, covering noise, drone, experimental electronics and even some guitar music this time (thanks SUERO).  The NOISE COMPILATION OF THE MONTTHHHH comes from the WITH LOVE AND NOISE fundraising compilation courtesy of Blacksmith Noise Records wihch I spoke about already in this blog - pulling together essential funds for Mima Kass essential health care but also, in the spirit of Mima Kass, providing an amazing platford for 180+ projects to come together and make some noises.  It was a pleasure to be a part of this, and also to discover loads of new artists. So 3 tracks from the release this month, and because there are so many excellent choices, maybe some more next month too. 

I also included a couple more tracks from the recent Eggy Tapes 4xWAY split - both from Romxn to end out the show, because this was another sort-of compilation that was also excellent.  The collaborative power of noise artists is where it truly shines for me, and the communities across the globe always seem to come together and form these powerful statements for all sorts of different reasons.  So support the artists and the labels and enjoy this lot:

01 SAKOSTAMU - Abu Tor (Break Down) - Brachliegen Tapes

02 SUERO - the mima (WITH LOVE AND NOISE) - Blacksmith Noise Records

03 CHEFKIRK - Meal of Glory! (say hello to my suffering) - s/r

04 knifedoutofexistence - Once Acknowledged (Objects That Once Breathed) - s/r

05 cornish semiconductor corporation - 220 below adit (Techno From Mine Waste) - s/r

06 Soloman Tump - 1 minute for Autohypnosis - coming soon....

07 Séraphitüs-Séraphîta - Vargtimmen (Hour of the Wolf) (WITH LOVE AND NOISE) - Blacksmith Noise Records

08 PERCIPIENT - Dr Kruvajan (WITH LOVE AND NOISE) - Blacksmith Noise Records

09 Disgrace - END OF YEAR HARSH NOISE (JULY-DECEMBER 2025) - 07 Zk 1.wav (december 17)

10 Romxn - Bottom Lines (4-way split) - Eggy Tapes

11 Romxn - Exile (4-way split) - Eggy Tapes
