I’m having a new album listening party on Wednesday!
It'll be a listen in advance of Friday’s release and I'll be in the chat to talk about the studio process, influences and why my Yorkshire allotment played a huge part in how all this came out...

See you down the front! Black Friday for punks, misfits, the avant-garde wanderers, the heads who chase the strange frequencies. A gathering for anyone wired for distortion and drawn to the red light of the underground. Step inside, where the price is full and the drops are fresh!

"Hydrology commandingly recalls and fuses together filaments of vintage kosmische, New Age ambience, Brian Eno, Sam Prekop’s latter-day solo works, whilst adding Yorke’s own distinct and enthralling imprint on top of it all"

‘Let’s Choose Our Words Carefully’ live in the underground ruins of a Coventry cathedral.
The opener to my new album ‘Rewilding’, this track takes flight with ultra high gain guitars and synths.
I’ve also been opening my live sets with this track during this month’s touring…

I’m not doing Black Friday this year.
I’d rather be honest with you than try to compete with big brands.
Every purchase genuinely makes a difference to my tiny business.
Shop independent this Christmas.

My new single is out one week today, Monday Dec 1st - my interpretation of the Ukrainian classic Shchedryk, aka Carol Of The Bells. You can pre-save the song at jongomm.com/shchedryk

I've poured everything into the arrangement, production, video, the artwork, to try to do justice to this music.

Hard to believe our hand-painted shopfront was finished a year ago! Joe nailed it, still looking brand new. We kept the old butcher’s sign underneath, another layer of the street’s history. Now, a new place to meet, chat & discover tees, books, mags & vinyl. Open 12–5pm ✌️
