#371 – PVA, Yazzus, The Umlauts, Alice Hubble, Rose Mercie, Astrid Sonne - 30 May 2022

Nothing is ever quite how it seems when it comes to the music of the Independent Music Podcast, and so it continues this week, with Japanese grime crashing head on into no wave synth pop, beautiful danish looping vocal work, tangerine dream pop, and thundering techno – amongst others.
