This month on The Keep Slack Album Club I'm joined by Slack City presenter (I Picture the Scene) and musician Christian Le Surf. To talk about one of his favourite albums Goyte’s 2011 ‘Making Mirrors’. As well as talking about Christian’s early musical loves, first gigs and early steps in songwriting we also talk about listening habits on planes, nostalgia and how you navigate post-education. So, what are you waiting for, press play now...

It's the second week in the newly put together studio in the OG Family store and Andrew has a swathe of tracks for you listen to. Brazilian Jazz, weirdo Punk, a singing Nun and a whole lot more. Always a delve into new releases and recent reissues plus a few rogue tracks for good measure. You should of course, give it a listen.

Japan Blues Yakuza Show: Gangsters rule, no? If not, where have you been for the last ten years or so? But gangsters once ruled because they were “cool”. The history of cinema is peppered with bad guys who somehow elicit our sympathies, check any film noir, you can’t help rooting for the seemingly ruthless hoodlum who gets it in the end. And Japanese culture is no exception. The rugged thug (yakuza) is just as fragile as the rest of us, when the push comes. With a cherry-picking of samurai ethics, and straight old bully-boy behaviour, the fictionalised Japanese gangster suffers the same life struggles as any European or yank. And they’re not only men, there are many yakuza movies featuring katana wielding, and occasionally sadistic, women. And so the music - some singers were genuine hoods before they made the studio, others just had the right face for a celluloid gunsel. The two intersected, and became a popular side genre, and female actors stepped off the set and into recording too. The result is a moody brew, singing of their hardships, taking the wrong path in life, and fortitude against all odds.

He's back! After a break (literally) of a leg. Andrew is back with another week of new and recent tracks. It's a big ol' mix as pers so please enjoy and always remember to check out the artists afterwards and buy their records. Your life will be better for it for sure. Give it a listen!

90 minutes of fresh music plucked from many genres. Including two tracks from the latest Deerhoof album, the future folk of Oddfellows Casino, dance floor beats with Mistress Lisa, garage rock from The Beths, the warped surf sound of Waterbear, electronica courtesy of Dave Welder, and plenty more besides. From out of the vaults come the classy Brit-pop of Rialto, the early sound of Ash, and a sublime tune from The Durutti Column. Meanwhile, this week’s soundtrack music selections are taken from John Barry’s score for the 1976 version of ‘King Kong’ and Barry Grey’s theme to Gerry Anderson’s ‘Secret Service’ Dig in!

In this episode of Mixed Tapes, I chat to London-based Chinese musician Yijia. Her new album Tu, is a wonderful blend of Chinese musical traditions and modern composition. We talk about the personal revelation that inspired its creation, her early rise to fame as a teenage pop star in China, the path that has lead her to an alternative in creative fulfilment, her recent TEDtalk on cultural roots, and also what's inspiring her at the moment.
