I have been wanting to do this for a long time, but somehow the opportunity only arrived now. This week’s show is a Monster Jinx special! Monster Jinx is a Portugal/Internet-based label specialised in hip-hop and electronic music. They are also an artist collective, and identify themselves as an indie label, having dropped their first record back in 2009. In the last few years, they managed to…

After two very special episodes, today we go back to a full music session. We have bedroom pop and undiscovered netlabels, as well as some older loves. As my dissertation is coming to an end, I will continue to release new epiosdes of White Market Podcast on a weekly basis. I have a few interviews and features planned, and I still have a White Market in Context I’d like to share about the show in…

This week, we dedicate some time and love to highlight the wonderful work of Free Music Archive. We only featured tracks that can be found on FMA, and we sat down to talk to Cheyenne Hohman, the Free Music Archive’s director. We talked about their current fundraiser, their work with curators and artists, the challenges they face and how anyone can help them. Support the Free Music Archive! Taseh…

This week, I had the pleasure of talking to Jonas Öberg, Executive Director of Free Software Foundation Europe. Free Software Foundation Europe (FSFE) is an organisation that advocates for the right of users to control technology, which can be achieved by using free software. On top of taking about FSFE’s work and its 15th anniversary (yeay!), we also talked a bit about FSFE Summit 2016, and…

This week, the heat was out and about in the UK and everybody went mad. So, we decided to create a full playlist of nice, breezy, summery songs. We called it “Songs for the Heat”, but in reality it’s just a collection of feel-good tracks. There’s a bit for nearly every taste: new pop, ambient electronic, indie rock and even industrial cumbia (yes, for real). We hope these tunes guide you through…

Tonight we wandered through the evening lights that now invade our usual slot at Spark Sunderland, sundays between 8pm and 9pm. With the dusk upon the studio, the songs were quite varied, with enough space for bits of house, dub and acoustic guitars – everything compiled in a wonderful collection you can download by following the links below.

Another Friday, another upload to Free Music Archive. This week, we visit the neon lights and shiny beats of Taseh‘s Dekotora. Released back in December 2012 by Monster Jinx, the album is a cool mixture of edgy electronic music with fresh glitch influences. Even though it includes some sounds for the most lovey-dovey, it’s more like one for the adventurous souls out there. Dekotora is published…

On our last session, I challenged myself to make a new upload to White Market’s music collection Free Music Archive every week. It would have been amazing if it wasn’t for the fact that I just moved houses and I am out of internet until August 5th, which makes things just slightly tougher. However, I will try to make up for it and upload some sweet sweet things in a near-ish future. Now, a few…
