New things from me

Hello lovely people of Earth,

A little update from me, attempting to give myself some creative space and get myself motivated again.

I just released More Bun Rights on Bandcamp! This was originally released by the wonderfully supportive Human Geography Recordings almost 2 years ago, but with their permission, I have re-released this digitally with a couple of extra tracks from the same recording session.  A little toe dipped in the water of clearing some hard disk space and getting some more sounds out there in the wild.


I also submitted a track for the recent end of season Hello Goodbye Radio Show - 60 seconds maximum track length was the requirement and I duly obliged! Thanks to Dexter Bentley and Resonance FM for the airplay :)  You can find my offering near the end of the show, but I recommend listening to the entire thing because its brilliant all the way through, and a few friends of the Tump Clump show are also featured in there too. 

More soon....

The Tump Clump #48 - 22/07/2025

Apologies a bit late updating this - you know how it is.

If you already listened to the show you might know i've been feeling a bit under the weather.  Household of plague strikes again.  But over the worst now, thankfully, just in time for the summer holidays....

No talking from me because my voice hurt.  Just a random little text to voice AI experiment (or 2) partway through to break the monotony. 

This month, a collection of dismal sounds.  

Some older, some newer. 

And here's a link because it's already on mixcloud -

I opened with something from Feghoots that came off a tape I purchased a few years back, "Loiter Adjourned" on Beartown Records.  Marvellous.  Then a brand new thing from Shaun Robert that popped into my inbox just days before putting the show together, always a pleasure to include a track that is exactlty 4'33 long, as always. 



Some things that came via lurking on Reddit, such as Astryx, Entartete Musick and Swamp Donkey, more sounds to explore from across the globe and the murky world of noise.

Can't quite remember how I discovered Saint Elisabeth, but I did, and its wonderful crunchy noise/drone wall, highly thematic and poignant.  Beautiful. 

So there we go, another show for the wonderful SoundArt radio done and dusted.  Episode 50 is flying towards us at breakneck speed! Will I do something different / radical? Possibly not.  We shall see.


Thanks for listening and please support the artists played on tonights show.
