Hello, welcome to the Kscope Podcast 120, where we embrace the weirdness.

Beautiful, emotive, gentle mythical-folk this time out, as two award-winning musicians release solo LPs on our label:  Jonathan Hultén with ‘Chants From Another Place’ - myth, legend, pastoral and  Mariana Semkina with ‘Sleepwalking’  - theatre, pre-Raphaelite, baroque.

We speak to both Mariana and Jonathan about writing alone, moving along to the next phase, and the magic of Hastings…

Tracklisting

Jonathan Hultén – ‘Where Devils Weep’, ‘Wasteland’ and ‘The Mountain’

Bruce Soord’s new solo album All This Will Be Yours, inspired by the birth of his baby daughter and the deprivation in his home town, is OUT NOW. It’s beautiful (as you’ll hear) and so is the child. Bruce spoke to Billy Reeves about his methods, songwriting, and plays the recorder.

Presented by Mr Jerry Ewing, the editor and founder of PROG magazine and the host of the annual Progressive Music Awards.

The magazine just reached 100 editions, so we thought it’s high time we asked Jerry to give us a golden hour of his top Kscope tracks, his memories of hearing them for the first time, their post-rock and psychedelic qualities, how they fit into the Universe that he’s created at Prog - and that time we were dancing to Danny Cavanagh’s twelve inchers…
