Good things come to wait, and we’ve been waiting a long time for the debut LP from the long-standing collaboration between Switzerland’s Simon Grab and Togo’s Yao Bobby, whose new single is an abrasive slice of forward-thinking experimentation. We have another superb collaboration this week with the emergence of Congotronics International, a supergroup from the long-running Congotronics series on Crammed Discs. The new group, including Deerhoof, Juana Molina, Kasai Allstars, Konono No.1, Skeletons, and Wildbirds &amp; Peacedrums, is as good as the sum of its parts. Elsewhere this week we have metal from Cannibal Corpse vocalist Corpsegrinder, goth drum and bass from VHS¥DEATH, a Russian doubleheader of grime from Champion Sound and techno from Wulffluw XCIV, modern classical from Noir et Blanc and much more. Tracklisting Corpsegrinder – On Wings of Carnage (Perseverance Media Group, USA) Congotronics International – Banza Banza (Crammed Discs, Belgium) VHS¥DEATH – Falsehood of Man (Dystopian Mix) (Cruel Nature Records, UK) Baron Saturday – 999 Deaths (self-release, UK) Wulffluw XCIV feat. Chrisman &amp; Lord Spikeheart – No Escape (self-release, Russia) Scrounge – This Summer’s Been Lethal (Fierce Panda, UK) Noir et Blanc – [footsteps waltz] (4000 Records, Australia) Société Étrange – La Rue Principale de Grandif (Les Disques Bongo Joe, Switzerland) Champion Sound – Gunfinga (Nice Up! Records, UK) Yao Bobby &amp; Simon Grab – Lekeo (LavaLava Records, UK) Produced and edited by Nick McCorriston. This week’s episode is sponsored by The state51 Conspiracy, a creative hub for music. Head to state51.com to find releases by JK Flesh vs Gnod, Steve Jansen, MrUnderwSood, Wire, Ghost Box, Lo Recordings, Subtext Records and many more

We start 2021 with music that is generally more mellow, contemplative, but no less extraordinary than the music you're used to on the podcast. Kicking things off with avant-folk of Birdengine, there's hints of modern classical from Doug Wieselman and CARM. We also have a very early contender for most exciting record of the year, with the first taste of the debut LP from Yao Bobby and Simon Grab, there's experimental music from Superalma Project, kraut-tinged sounds from Baïkonour, a tribute to the late, great MF Doom, and much more. Tracklisting Birdengine - The Woe Spills (Eyeless Records, UK) Yao Bobby &amp; Simon Grab - Black Revolution (LAVALAVA Records, UK) Doug Wieselman - Hope For The Trees (Figureight, USA) CARM - Soft Night (37d03d, USA) Baïkonour - Desert Song (self-release, UK) Iman Houssein - Turkey (Ghost Notes Worldwide, UK) Superalma Project - Love is a Many-Splintered Thing (Glamour label, Poland) Fred E. Fresh - Wrapped Up-Tight (Analog Records, USA) Boldy James x Meyhem Lauren (prod. Real Bad Man) - Light Bill (Griselda Records, USA) Madvillain - All Caps (Stones Throw, USA)  Produced and edited by Nick McCorriston.
