We recorded this week’s podcast before the sad death of French house legend Philippe Zdar, who produced HOT CHIP’s fantastic new album ‘A Bath Full Of Ecstasy’. Author and ex-Face magazine editor Richard Benson and Guardian TV and podcasts writer Hannah Verdier join us to talk discuss the Chip’s magnum opus for the older, wiser raver.

Plus! The astonishing horror movie IN FABRIC from Peter ‘Duke Of Burgundy’ Strickland. (Are we ready for the Scarfolk ‘Are You Being Served?’) MARK RONSON completes this week’s “sad bangers” mood with his long-awaited album of small-hours introspection, ‘Late Night Feelings’. And our guests bring in a tune each too. 

Produced and presented by Andrew Harrison and Siân Pattenden. Audio production by Sophie Black at Soho Radio, London. Bigmouth is a Podmasters production.
