The Tump Clump Episode 31 - 14/03/24

The Tump Clump is back! After a few months break whilst the Sound Art studios relocate, it was good to be able to put a new show back out there.  Feeling slightly guilty that I was not able to lend a hand to the SoundArt crew during their move; awkward timings, family and work commitments made it tricky to get over to Dartington whenever the call to arms was made.  I hope to get there soon and lend a hand in some way as the work continues to get everything ship shape.

So without further ado; here are the tunes played in the newest show:

Quite an urgent collection of noisy dismal missives; some very recent, some a few years old.  All with a singular message of sonic experimentation and that I am pleased to unleash upon the airwaves.

The Pale World track I opened with is from a stunning new album on Trust Collective.  Very dense and noisy with fleeting sections of beauty hidden within; absolutely essential to my ears.

Heavy Cloud is an artist I am slowly coming being obsessed with; hailing from deepest Cornwall and taking the ravages of land and sea as an inspiration for sound and art work.  Really strong stuff and I appreciate them sending me their last few releases too!

Hannya White once again delivers some focused yet abstract work on her latest EP "I call you another name" - this track is the digital bonus offering that appears when you download, and is the subject of a nifty video on youtube in her singular style. And here it is to save you searching for it - enjoy!



The 3-track Mademoiselle Marchand EP on Inner Demons Records was released on my favourite 3" CDr format, and I long for more! Perfect short form harsh noise wall crumbles.

Another highlight this month comes from Private Arms, a collaboration between Sewer Election and vocalist Sofie for a uniquely eclectic album.  Putting these shows together makes me realise how much great music I have amassed, and how much more I need to listen to what I already have. Despite of course... the urge to get more being strong.  

Be back in just 4 weeks time with another hour of semi-organised ramblings between sounds - thats 11th April 2024.  Thank you for listening!
