Pingipung Podcast 178 is here and it comes with exciting news. We’re thrilled to welcome Iko Chérie to the Pingipung family. Her debut single will be released with us this September, followed by a full album in November. More on that soon.

The London-based artist says about her mix: 

"My mixes usually start with a little spark and then become stories running on free associations, this is how this one goes:
 
Someone very dear to my heart once told me love was a choice. I found this idea both interesting and slightly mind contorting. But the more I think about it, the more it makes sense. It’s the love versus fear thing, I realise you do have to be brave to chose love because there is vulnerability attached to it. 
Love is the thread running through this mix. 
Starting with Chantage, an amazing 80s project by Vivien Goldman and Eve Blouin, opening with the moment they sing about love as a scary feeling. We leave the apprehension behind, take a deep breath and dive in! 
Next comes Brenda Ray, she is a huge influence on me. Love Is The Most is such a great title, it is indeed the big everything, which naturally leads me to The Bigger Tuttiby my precious friends Valentina Magaletti and Zongamin, who I love very much and who, like me, are fans of Mad Professor, here dubbing out Massive Attack. Teardrop was written by Elizabeth Fraser in memory of Jeff Buckley, whom I discovered because the coolest boy at school had lent me his CD of Grace, I got into The Cocteau Twins much much later when I moved to London as an adult, but I still love both to this day. One of the best things about music is that it can transcend time. There is always so much to discover! For example this Lazy Love Dub, which is new in my life! Time Capsule has done such a wonderful job compiling Japanese dub gems, their Tokyo Riddim series is brilliant. Following up is some Capybara appreciation, I was very lucky to go to Haruomi Hosono’s London concert in July and that was my favourite gig of 2025 so far. It was extremely inspiring, really great musicians being so present in the moment and jamming those fantastic songs without being ostentatious in any way, just feeling it. That made me happy. Is Happiness also a choice? Maybe more of a state, impermanent in essence as sung by Gina Birch… I had the pleasure of playing drums, singing and co arranging this song with Gina. I am proud of that one, a lot of love went into it. 
Next is a Pingipung number, Marewrew perfectly remixed by Elijah Minnelli, this 7 inch has been in my DJ bag for a while, it goes with everything, for example this Housey banger by Fcukers which I put in the tracklist because bass is one of my favourite things “Come and hit me with that bass” would be my request to the DJ most times…  Froid Dub also have a thing with bass, I am super excited about a remix they have just done of one of my songs that will soon come out on Pingipung, On The Nose is an extract from their latest album. 
As this mix comes to an end I wanted to express my love for Palestine so I chose this track by Faten Kanaan from a compilation called Letters To The Sun, full of amazing music and raising funds for The Arab Group for the Protection of Nature. The atrocities must end and the perpetrators be judged. International law has been flouted for too long in the name of greed and hatred. Private Armies resonates deeply here, what is going on is really out of order. This mix starts and ends with the voice of Vivien Goldman because she is a visionary with an essential message that is so relevant today. I was lucky to play percussion for her in London and when we sung the lyrics “Blood everywhere” I really felt it. I hope we make the right choice very soon, love could bring so much joy if we gave it a chance."

Pingipung Podcast 178: Iko Chérie - The State of Love (Summer of 2025)

A revisit of Rita Abadzi - Gazeli Neva Sabah (Hour of Death).

The eire and mystifying vocals of this 1929 Greek folksong have haunted me for years.   After much contemplation and experimentation this song was born.  I hope you all enjoy!!!!

Look for more to come from 

Αμάν
Πρέπει νά σκέφτεται κανείς την ώρα του θανάτου
ότι θα μπεί στη μαύρη γής καί σβήνει τ’όνομά του.

Aman
A person must give some thought to the hour of his death;
when he will go down into the black earth
and his name will be erased.
