There have been readership rumblings of discontent due to the length of time it has taken since we last compiled a JanglepophubMix…I would like to categorically state that this was because I was busy helping society in a key worker status as well as simply utilizing my natural gorgosity in various modelling assignments.

Alas, it was neither. It was just a startling level of laziness that largely emanated from the sheer gluttony I always indulge in over the festive and well beyond its confines.

Oh well, it is here now (click on track names to hear individual tracks or in one place at the Mixcloud version above) and features :

• Tracks from the recent Television Personallities album out of Paisley Shirt Records et al (theCatherines and Red Go-Cart)

•  The latest Scottish finds to joins the inimitable Slovakian, ZTapes cassette label (Community Swimming Pool and Swiss Portrait.

• A double salvo by brilliant Spanish act, Madbil

• Several tracks from the 14th Birthday compilation from the Damnably label (Say Sue Me, Small Gang and Lazarus Clamp)

• Our favourites from the Shiny Happy Records on-line gigs compilation (Apple Orchard, The Umbrella Puzzles, Anthony Rochester, Sunny Summerday and The Very Most).
