Bienvenidos and willkommen to the fourth instalment of the themed @zoonvansnook presents: OddCasts (#4) for the esteemed Ransom Note magazine.

This time out, the theme is all things bird-related, to coincide with last month's National Bird Day.

Contained inside, you will find a carefully laid nest of styles including (but not limited to):

Welsh freak-pop, neo-kraut rock, laid-back rockabilly, instrumental grime, acoustic melancholia, sideways electronica, Balkan-inspired folk, lo-fi a cappella, electro-baggy, psycho-surf, Japanese folk pop, 80s sci-fi VHS chic, and Matmos!!!... all interspersed with snippets of poetry, essays, news samples and field recordings.

For this mix, I am elated to have rekindled my collaboration with US artist Seth Fitts, who did all of the sleeve artwork for my debut LP '(Falling from) The Nutty Tree' (Mush Records).
