Fréquence : 1 épisode/16j. Total Éps: 220
The Sonic Collective is a music podcast dedicated to exploring the albums, artists, and ideas that have shaped the soundtrack of our lives. Each month, the show takes a deep dive into a different album or musical concept—examining the history behind it, the cultural context in which it was created, and the lasting impact it has had on the music industry.
Hosted by Alain DuPuis, Scott Coates, Scott Gregory, and Darren Scott—yes, that’s probably one Scott too many—the conversation blends thoughtful analysis, passionate debate, and personal stories about the music that has defined generations.
From timeless classics to influential hidden gems, The Sonic Collective goes beyond the surface of the albums you know (and some you may not) to explore how they were made, why they mattered, and how they continue to influence the music we hear today.
If you love music history, great albums, and discovering new perspectives on the albums and songs that shaped our culture, The Sonic Collective is your answer.
Kids just don't get it these days.

Conrad Montana (Les Gigantiques) on Sled Island, Calgary’s Music Scene & a 20-Year-Old Album Finally Released

He recalls standout Sled memories (Guided by Voices, Television, Yo La Tengo, and more), highlights Calgary venues supporting live music (Loophole, Blocks, Palomino), and discusses what makes Sled unique, including its diversity and discovery-focused playlists.

mardi 16 juin 2026 • Durée 29:48
Cartel Madras on Sled Island, Sub Pop & Their New Era - The Sonic Collective Interview
Darren Scott of The Sonic Collective continues the Sled Island interview series with Cartel Madras, the Calgary-raised, Chennai-born sister duo Eboshi and Contra, discussing their roots, early hip hop influences, and rapid rise from SoundCloud demos to their 2018 debut show and a standout Sled Island performance that led to being noticed by Ishmael Butler and ultimately signing with Sub Pop Records. They reflect on Calgary venues and Alberta’s broader music scene, share artists they’ve discovered at Sled Island, and describe the festival’s unique audience, community, and role in creating career-changing opportunities. The duo previews their return with the new single “Evident 2 Me,” leading into a new chapter and a debut full-length album planned for 2027, plus upcoming festival and tour appearances.

Cartel Madras Bio
Beckoning you down narrow hallways and into smoke-filled, bass-pumping rooms, Cartel Madras returns with a new world and a new sound. After four years of experimenting, traversing, and creating since their 2021 EP, The Serpent & The Tiger, sisters Eboshi and Contra emerge from the smoke of a shattered global era with vengeance on their mind and adventure laid out before them.
Building off their signature experimental electronic hip-hop foundation, the duo expands their sonic domain, summoning listeners onto the blazing hot tarmac of their motherland and into a seductive world, they call you to the beach, the streets, and the uncertainty of this timeline through a new sound. Radical, racy, and raucous as ever, Cartel Madras continue to unfold an uncharted epoch entirely their own.
Born in Chennai, Tamil Nadu and raised in Alberta, Cartel Madras crafts a cultural syncretism of house, trap, punk, industrial electronics, and razor-sharp rap. Known for explosive live performances that channel the energy of underground queer and punk scenes, the duo have built a reputation for music that is confrontational, playful, cinematic, and impossible to pin down. After being scouted during their 2018 Sled Island performance, they signed to Sub Pop Records and have since released three acclaimed EPs alongside a growing body of striking visual work directed and produced through their own multidisciplinary practice.
Cartel Madras have shared stages with artists including M.I.A., JPEGMAFIA, Jack Harlow, Wu-Tang Clan, clipping., Mac DeMarco, and toured with Sudan Archives. In 2023, they returned to India to open for M.I.A.. Alongside their music career, Eboshi and Contra have expanded their artistic universe into film, installation, and visual storytelling through their production house FOREIGNERZ, creating immersive worlds that blur the boundaries between music, cinema, fashion, and contemporary art.
Their full-length studio album is set for release on Sub Pop Records & Royal Mountain Records in 2027.

Guilty as Charged: Our Musical Guilty Pleasures
Saison 11 · Épisode 13
vendredi 23 janvier 2026 • Durée 42:33
Even the most obsessive music nerds have a few secrets they’re not eager to file under cool. In Guilty as Charged: Our Musical Guilty Pleasures, the four hosts of The Sonic Collective step into the confessional and own up to the songs and artists we love — even though critics, tastemakers, and sometimes our younger selves say we shouldn’t. From unexpected pop hits to unfashionable classics and deeply personal favorites, these are the tracks that refuse to leave our playlists, no matter how much side-eye they get. It’s a funny, honest, and surprisingly thoughtful conversation about taste, nostalgia, and why the music that moves us doesn’t always need critical approval. Listener discretion advised… your own guilty pleasures may not survive this episode unchallenged.
