The Tump Clump #44 - 27/03/2025

Edition 44 of my little radio show, huzzah.

And still slightly suffering with weird spring flu / sinusitis / melancholy, but hey, Spring is kinda here and we can all breath a sigh of relief and go outside, touch some grass, hug a tree, smile at the sun a bit.

This time around I had the honour of playing the following things, which you can search for and find online at the your repository (mostly bandcamp I guess...)

Although if you are lucky you might be able to find a cassette tape at your local record store still? Who knows! Please support the artists played in tonights show, buy their stuff, listen/stream and share the knowledge around if you enjoy what you hear.  Because that after all is the point.

New recording: Live Ritual

A live recording from home. No editing.  Some clipping.  Some big feedback.  All part of the natural order of things.  Free to you as a gift, or pay something if you wish to support my project.  But listening is the best support you can give - and feedback is always welcome especially the noisy kind.

Affirmation of the process.

Photo taken on holiday in Hope Cove, Devon, June 2009, ages before we decided to move down here.

This is a work in progress towarsd other things - a proof of concept and snapshot in time. 

From this, some things will be kept, others replaced and the cycle will continue....

Recording made possible by having a "weekend at home by myself" and a trip to Ashburton to visit the wonderful FIELD SYSTEM.  You should go if you are in the area, a very inspiring shop!

And this is a milestone of sorts, so thank you to everyone who has streamed my sounds via bandcamp, and to everyone else who purchased something along the way.  It is encouraging getting people purchasing my sounds still, and it really does give me inertia towards carrying on this little endeavour.....

The Tump Clump #43 - 27/02/2025

 

Hello once again t-rave-llers,

Another 4 weeks has passed and another Tump Clump is committed to the airwaves via SounDART radio. 

For this show I offer you the following sounds, a few Tump Clump regulars once again bring some great new sounds - Disgusting Cathedral who appeared on the very first Tump Clump back in 2021 for example, oh and regular Ekoplekz who ive most likely played more of than anyone else.  And I don't even get commission :)

Included in this show tonight is a 10 minute snippet of a live recording of Soloman Tump sounds, created in preparation for the Acid Morris Wassail that happened last month but unfortunately not a gig I was able to attend and perform at.  So this is perhaps a taster of what was missed.  You may or may not think this was a good thing after listening!

Disgusting Cathedral - Inarticulate Warlock (Moths Drink the Tears of Sleeping Birds)

Mademoiselle Marchand - Architecture V (Inner Demon Records)

Nichole & Paul Pichon - A fine (Craft Crates)

bigroadbreaker - Dome (Disterplication - Collected Works Volume 2 (1997-2000))

Chelidon Frame - Nvs_k3 (Framework)

Soloman Tump - Live session preparing for the Acid Morris 24hr Wassail

Ekoplekz - Luminate Verzion (Live In The Eko Chamber)

Basic House - AR II (Oats) - Opal Tapes

False Maria - Why Would I Follow That (Letting Go)

German Army - German Army - Valley Maidu (Biloxi)

Edit.... oops sorry, wrote this a couple of weeks back and forgot to hit "submit"! D'oh
