Episode 26: “No Ali G Shit” - The Scratch Cast: The Alternative Music Podcast

4th February 2024

This episode should have come out in August 2023. We had planned to record it, but I got sick and it was postponed. Then, life got busy with staggers, weddings (both hosts included), and honeymoons.

It’s been over six months since our last episode - which is absolutely mental - but we’re finally back with loads of great new (ish) music to talk about!

On our singles swap we’re discussing: Post-punk Experiment #3 (A Bigger Splash) by experimental indie weirdos The Wife Guys of Reddit, and You Can Be Mean by American-Brazilian singer-songwriter Indigo De Souza.


Our album reviews for this episode are Doggerland, the third album from Glasgow’s musical wizard Rudi Zygadlo; the Black or White EP, the 18th record from Munich-based artist Cagri Raydemir; Standard Patter, the new album from Scottish rappers Fire Up The Sun; Restless Dreams, the latest EP from Livingston’s industrial electro-pop goths GRAVELLE; and finally, Nothing Clever, Just Feelings from Brighton-based, electro-punks CLT DRP.

Check out the episode below or via any of the links at the bottom of the page. Sit back, relax and listen to Episode 26: ”No Ali G Shit”.
