Richard Spaven

Yeah, so I mean, it's, there's, there's always gonna be a clash or, you know, like cut half of something off to go and do something else.

Spaven's in, um, in my screen-

Yeah

... at 12:45 as well.

Yep, he's a nice guy.

Yeah.

And, um, Richard Spaven's back on on Sunday at 12... at 2:15 even.

And then-

Um, but yeah, most of the time it's Esser, uh, rapping.

Um, shout to Richard Spaven, who, uh, adds his drums onto Break The Chain, um, and, uh, Soul Goodman as well on, is On My Mind.

But yeah, most of the time it's just Esser.

He's got this very contemplative, uh, uh, form of rapping, uh, which I really enjoy.

Very Children of Zeus-esque, which is ironic 'cause they are also on Mary's Gold bonus track.

Um, and uh, yeah, so very lo-fi hip-hop, nice and bassy, and just Kofi Stone flowing on top of it, standard procedure.

And uh, lastly, I think it's lastly, yeah, lastly, oh no, penultimately, Richard Spaven, Live at the Day, um, who I have recently covered at his headline show at the Jazz Cafe.

Uh, photos of that will be dropping in two Sundays time, uh, if, over at crt.photography if you wanna go peep.

The last set of music this week will feature three more artists from the United Kingdom.

First, you will hear drummer Richard Spaven with Light of Day, the title track to his album released in July.

That will be followed by multi-instrumentalist Scrimshire with Bring Our Light to Every Corner, the title track to his album released in June.

Finally, you will hear multi-instrumentalist Squarepusher with Central off his album Kamer Concert, released in April.

And I was just very happy to be a very small part.

uh, in that, and, uh, yeah, I, uh, I'll drop that, uh, set sometime in the next couple of weeks, a few weeks, uh, I'll have Richard Spaven drop in, and also the Agnes Juniors, and also Rashmi Rashmi Kaur, who I covered on 24th.

Shout out to Jashima, a friend of 5E, who manages her.

Funnily enough, one of my favourite shows this year, considering that she's a...

Yeah.

He reminds me of Richard Spaven in that way, that he's like constantly just busting out, like drop the mic.

You've just, you've destroyed the podcast.

You might as well leave.

I was just about to wait for you to finish to be

like, he gives me Richard Spaven vibes, but he is a very funny drummer.

He has that thing that... sometimes it's like oh that's so annoying to hear when people ask him about practice and he was like nah i just don't really care but then he says it so casually and you'd be like what what do you mean you don't care about drums but he doesn't mean it like that but because he's writing the song and he's taking so much care over the craft of the whole band yeah I legit think drums is like a second thought.

Just part of it
