Perfect Seed | Prey to your new overlord ‘the Universe’s right hand man’ and provide your best women for his Perfect Seed, before that have a listen to Rob and Callum’s little podcast. There’s a misunderstanding of ‘thropy’s’ and music. That music, that comes in the sound of; the ‘King of Bubu’ Janka Nabay and the Bubu Gang, No Joy and their inevitable reference shoegaze noise reference point (hey, it aint a bad thing), there’s a Loch Ness Mouse making a cross between Miles Davies Jazz fusion and Stones gospel, Stevie Jackson makes a Parisian Nilsson and... well there’s plenty more wonders inside, have a listen. | 25 5 12 | Free | View In iTunes |

Middle Class Archetype | Rob has gangrene and Callum has a Level 2 Sailing License, it’s the classic oddball pairing, it should never work. Yet, these two mavericks have bought in the ‘12 definitive things you need to listen to this week’, we say that like it means something – you judge for yourself. Some of those things include: The flat-out funk of Jungle Fire, Pond’s the fuzz rock cover of a Motown classic, boozey punk from JEFF the Brotherhood, country samplings from Jib Kidder, Swedish psych folk from the unknown Einar Leiknar, something beautiful from SFA’s Cian Ciaran and other things, which you’ll have to discover inside the pod.

The Floppy Vandal | Everyone is a massive fan of their own show, so the least Rob and Callum could do is whip up some enthusiasm. That’s for you to do, can’t see how you could as we chat about copping a look at Paul Weller in a urinal, lone Parisian women and destroying floppy disks. We pay tribute MCA Adam Yauch and lay down two of our favourite Beastie Boys and provide further Hip Hop listening from Oh No, El-P and Open Mike Eagle. There’s some Vangelis Blade Runner level electronics, Foxygen and their 10 hook-per-song pop and modern psych stylings from Opossom and Melody’s Echo Chamber. | 11 5 12 | Free | View In iTunes |

Public Grot | Rob & Callum bring you a podcast with a warning; wear a hat to keep your brain safely bolted in while you listen to this – you’ll find out why. We discuss 2012 the year of the comic book movie, Callum the Nerdlinger and Rob’s nostalgia for phone box grot. Music flits from the candid folk recordings of Karen Dalton to hip hop’s new young hope 17y/o Joey Bada$$, some krautrock space drones from Kogumaza, Twin Shadow’s hyped up new great thing, Ty Segall’s band deliver noise and US Aries bring something wonderfully obscure electronic soul... There are more tracks, but you knew that. | 4 5 12 | Free | View In iTunes |

Celebrate the spectacle not the content | Rob and Callum have blown the podcast budget on something that will simply blow your minds. You may ask 'what's the point?' but you'd be wrong, you'd be a square and here on the podcast we're all about wheels - reinventing them. We deliver some feverish punk from Mean Jeans, Pow, Nobunny and then some balearic dub house infected afrobeat in the form of a Seun Kuti remix and dead-eyed disco house from No Gold. There's some of that next level s**t from BADBADNOTGOOD and something brand new from The Walkmen. How's that wheel looking? | 20 4 12 | Free | View In iTunes |

Have a Gold Star | Rob and Callum have a lot in the can, oh it could be a ramble, it could be a lovely little lullaby, maybe it's just bitterness waiting to explode? Or just music innit? From heavy garage rock of Natural Child to the ace new Dirty Projectors track, Ariel Pink and R. Stevie Moore's cult baby to that little lullaby with Indians and Callum's continuing music crush on Of Montreal. Some other ace tunes are inside -you knew that though. | 6 4 12 | Free | View In iTunes |

Grills on the NHS | Rob and Callum are back after a week break and guess what? Their Dad still isn’t Brian May; for that they count their blessings – your dad being Brian May is the street cred killer. In a podcast full of cred, they can’t risk that. Rob’s bought in mainly hip hop choices from Oddisee, to Ayentee’s Mos Def, Common and Black Thought Frankenstein mixtape, to Danny Brown’s unhinge weed paranoia minimalism and also a bit of Turkish surf rock and rare jazz funk. Callum’s got that J. Mascis and Spacemen 3 inspired s**t that cats have been digging (yeah, I said ‘cats’) in the form of Bare Mutants and Bearhug, new garage rock from Ty Segal + White Fence, plus his own hip hop choice from Nas. There’s more stuff, there’s more rambling – ‘this is that real’. | 30 3 12 | Free | View In iTunes |

The Unskippables | Down tools and sack-off your work load it’s the If There Is Hell Below podcast… Rob and Callum have unintentionally pulled together 3 songs with loosest connections to the ‘Big Star’ sound and Alex Chilton’s little circle of influence.
