What Is The Bristol Sound? From the Pop Group to Massive Attack to IDLES and beyond.

Подробнее о видео

Welcome to Tangent Calling! This episode delves into the strange and oft overlooked history of Bristol's idiosyncratic and influential music scene. From its cider folk beginnings to the worldwide success of trip hop to a resurgence of its 70s art-punk sound, Bristol has consistently bucked the trend and danced to the beat of its own dubby, downtempo drum. We end up on some odd tangents here too, from Nietzsche to sea shanties to the moon landing!
