This week is for catching up on my podcast queue. Hypnagogue is one of the best ambient, electronic and contemporary instrumental music podcasts out there. This one:

Just 90 more minutes of really tasty musical treats. Things get a bit droney for a while, and we spend a good bit of time with contemporary composers. Definitely an episode for those with eclectic tastes. We’re all over the map here.

I can’t figure out how to make it embed right now, so click through.

Posting to WordPress from my Downcast podcasting app rrrreally doesn’t work, which is a shame because I really only think to save these things in the moment of listening. But the Parish News is 1) always good 2) generating a queue of ten as yet unplayed episodes on my phone and this will remind me to spend a day with them, And also maybe someone will find this and discover this wonderful experimental music podcast, which would be a fine thing.

A section of my podcast list for your amusement:

• [RSS] In Our Time (essential, proper British radio – people sitting around a desk talking about history, science and culture)
• [RSS] Mantra, Kirtan and Stotra: Sanskrit Chants
• [RSS] Hypnagogue Podcast (one of the very best longform ambient music podcasts)
• [RSS] Desert Oracle Radio (the laconic, weird Americana of the Mojave)
• [RSS] Voices Of The Ainur (dungeon synth and related musics)
• [RSS] Monument Techno Podcast (constantly amazed by the breadth of the sets they curate)
• [RSS] The Parish News – An Experimental Music Podcast (just started with this one, giving it a test drive. Really good so far, very eclectic)

If you’re on an iPhone, do not for god’s sake use the Apple Podcast app. I use Downcast, lots of people recommend Overcast or Pocket Casts.

Mark Shields’ The Monday Graveyard seems to have given up on tracklistings, but you can listen and get the subscribe details at this link here and be assured that for 197 episodes — and I’ve listened to most of them, I think! — it’s always been a good show filled with fine ambient/drone/electronic/calm musics.

SEQUENCES is a podcast I recently discovered.

“We welcome you to another special edition, the music of David Parsons, an influential musician who has been so important in our genre of electronic sounds…. his experiences traveling through Central Asia over the years have given him an insight into his own music. The darkness that has remained a defining element of his sound today, he says, “not darkness, really. It’s more like a sense of awe. You go to the Himalayas and you hear the rumble of the ice and the low long horns of the monastery. Tibetan Buddhism has that darkness: it’s not evil, it’s the awesome power of the universe, the sound of Om. That’s the darkness I’m drawn to.””
