You are all invited to @weheardwonders' infinite garden of musical delights! Tune in for Iain and Andrew's takes on the new collaborative album of electronic musician/producer Mark Pritchard and a certain Thomas Edward Yorke, the Aussie alt-rock experimentation of Mess Esque, Infinity Knives & Brian Ennals' confounding and confrontational brand of alternative hip-hop, Barker's textured techno, and Little Barrie & Malcolm Catto's psych-blues interplay. Something unrelenting and bug-eyed has The Vinyl Word.

Joining the @weheardwonders boys for this week's pod is Scottish saxophonist and composer Matt Carmichael. Matt discusses his wonderful new LP Dancing With Embers, the art of improvising and taking inspiration from folk singer-songwriters, as well as selecting some fantastic music to play. Elsewhere, with Iain talking Animals and Andrew enthusing about At Pompeii, is 2025 going to be a Floyd Summer? New releases by mysterious groove merchants Sault and intense alternative hip-hop artist Backxwash are also up for review.

We Heard Wonderers Iain and Andrew return in one piece (just about) following their European exploits. We have our say on high-profile new indie releases from Bon Iver, Japanese Breakfast and The Horrors - do they hit the mark, or leave something to be desired? Exciting projects from contemporary composer Daniel Paul O’Sullivan and gospel-soul family unit Annie & The Caldwells are also up for discussion. Something beguiling and beautiful has The Vinyl Word.

Don’t let it ever be said that @weheardwonders don’t have range! On the latest pod, Iain and Andrew discuss the potential reemergence of Radiohead, before playing and reviewing new records by returning pop royalty Lady Gaga, none-more-American alternative country band Fust, mellifluous Welsh millers Melin Melyn, sensational soul survivor Candi Staton and avant-classical-folk-metal world-weaver Maud The Moth. Something strutting of a sixties vintage has The Vinyl Word.

Fascinating, sometimes unexpected pairings and groupings are the name of the game on this week’s @weheardwonders podcast. Iain and Andrew share their favourite musical mash-ups, before moving on to review five collaboration-heavy new projects. Bobby Gillespie lives out his noirish, faded glamour fantasies alongside Mr & Mrs of French garage-rock The Limiñanas; DARKSIDE expand to a trio and jam out; Richard Russell and assorted friends turn existential on the latest Everything Is Recorded document; Sun Ra acolyte Marshall Allen enlists Neneh Cherry and proves it’s never too late to take centre-stage; while Japanese folk singer Ichiko Aoba and composer Taro Umebayashi once again take a deep dive into the fantastical. Something dark and devilish has The Vinyl Word.

Mystery hangs in the air and cloaks many of the artists played and discussed on this week's @weheardwonders pod: whether it be shadowy, alt-electro collective HONESTY; the endlessly intriguing, expectation-defying John Glacier; Oklou's introspective approach to futurist-medieval-Y2K dance-pop; progressive folk musician Richard Dawson's obtuse quest for the divine in day-time TV; or the hazy, daydream-folk-hop of South London rapper Confucius MC's new collaboration with producer/multi-instrumentalist Bastien Keb. As well as this, Iain and Andrew pay tribute to two talented recently-departed artists. Something cosmic and swelling with humanity has The Vinyl Word.

Podcasting late at night in their pants surrounded by a week’s worth of washing is when Iain and Andrew are at their most Eusexua. Tune into @weheardwonders to hear their opinions on some intriguing new music: FKA twigs discovers the best version of herself on the dance-floor; Benjamin Booker takes a dramatic left-turn and asks “what would happen if I mixed Mobb Deep and the Mary Chain?”; tender singer-songwriter Anna B Savage tests our Irish pronunciation; Sam Amidon brings a salty freshness to traditional folk; while Thandii lend some soulful succour and casual cool to proceedings. Plus, we feature new Scottish act Majorca, and something moodily motorik has the Vinyl Word.
