TomCast: A weekly mixtape of independent, web released music

Apologies for the lack of a show last week, but as I explained in the last show I was climbing a mountain in Wales with a bunch of mates.  We also did trampolining underground in a disused slate mine.

But you didn’t come here for my outdoor adventure anecdotes, you came for music.  This week I’ve picked out a bunch of great alternative, indie, and indietronica for you to enjoy.

Every now and again I find, and enjoy some rather strange music.  This week I decided to bundle a few of the oddities together with some of the normalities.

With tunes from The Freak Fandango Orchestra, TV Girl, Galaktlan and more.

Everyone loves a good wobble, and this week’s show contains some great wobbly, dubby, bass fuelled grooves.

With music from Asa, Dale and the ZDubs and SPCZ it’s time to enter The Wobble Box!

My studio/spare room was absolutely sweltering while I recorded this week’s show, my iMac acts as surprisingly good radiator and if I’d have opened the window you probably would have heard the neighbour’s barbecue in full swing.

But not one to be bothered by heat, I persevered to bring you 7 great tracks from across the web, with punk from Chicago and Wales, metal from Russia, and Dubstep from Germany.  You’re welcome!

Following on from last week’s indie rock based show, this week I wanted to turn it up a notch with some heavier tunes.

Starting off with some bluesy rock from Atomic Man, the show gets progressively heavier until your faces are melted by some brutal heavy metal courtesy of Flayed Disciple.

I have an internet connection again!  I’m not sure how long it’ll last but I’ve signed up with a new ISP so I should have a reliable service within the next few weeks.
