“This podcast explores the tension between the respect of musical convention, and the desire to extend them, warp them sometimes to the point of bending them. It’s a dedication to the ecstatic, the communal and transgression. These tracks often use simple techniques, old styles, playful melodies, but pushed into something so much more. This productive tension helps formulate so much in how we imagine our own music, between tradition and diversion. “ Meeting with Shovel Dance Collective, a group united by a passion for traditional music.
