New music including Tanlines, Bully, Heartworms and Hatchie on this week’s West Of The Fields podcast

I continued exploring recent releases from Yves Tumor, 100 gecs, Gorillaz, Depeche Mode, Fever Ray, John Cale, Inhaler, U.S. Girls and M83 on the show this week, while the retro alternative set spanned a ton of ground, as I moved from ’60s art pop (Serge Gainsbourg, Scott Walker) to psychedelic rock (Syd Barrett, 13th Floor Elevators) to experimental tunes from Can and Yoko Ono, on to ’80s synthpop pioneers (YMO and Akiko Yano) and New Wave pop from France and Italy (Alain Bashung, Loredana Berte). Here’s the tracklist for the full show:
