“Expected this to be good but, wow, I didn't expect it to be this awesome! If you love White Lighter don't hesitate, you'll love this!”
This isn’t a competition. It’s a collaboration.
All in ODDS
FANDCAMP: Among Horses I
“Dan Willson of Withered Hand lore is the best writer of melodies currently alive (believe me, I've looked). He hasn't written a song I don't adore. The streak continues here. I'm also happy to report that the songs from a Singer of Songs are also quite lovely, especially the last. Buy this and everything these two outfits have ever produced.”
HIGHLY RECOMMENDED W/ PAT MOON
“I like to go for walks with headphones or a camera every day. I think it's important to take some time to let your mind be still, to just breathe.”
MIX TAPE RADIO: EPISODE 063
EPISODE 63 kicks off with the lovingly lofi Katie Von Schleicher, and before things close out with an absolute surprise from LUKA, you'll hear: Joshua James singing Modest Mouse, Pet Cemetary sampling I Heart Huckabees, Ed Harcourt, my favourite chorus of the year from (Ariel Sharratt & Mathias Kom) and even more 'good for the ears' things.
HIGHLY RECOMMENDED W/ SAM MOSS
“Starting the day without looking at a screen. When possible, don't look at your phone or computer until after breakfast. I have never regretted this decision.”
FANDCAMP: The Birds Outside Sang
“feels like riding in a car on a day in May and passing every house you've ever lived in, every creek you've ever dipped your toes into. feels like looking into a puddle and seeing tadpoles and realizing that life can happen anywhere. it's as if all my friends have gathered me into a room, and they're saying: 'you made it. welcome home. we missed you.'”
HI54LO5: On The Corner
“You are dropped in an alley in the middle of a 70s blaxploitation film. The drugs start to turn on you & pretty soon you don't know what kind of film you are in.”
HI54LO5: LOVE MAN
“This album doesn't really bring anything “new” to the table that I had already carved “I <3 OTIS” into, so I will just get out my pocket knife and add a double underline.”
HIGHLY RECOMMENDED W/ FREDRICK ARNOLD
“While I almost hesitate to suggest this, because I often wonder if I’d be happier if I could just settle for mediocrity, I think we could all benefit from disrupting the complacency in our lives.”
FANDCAMP: WINTER WHEAT
“John K. Samson is a national treasure and this new album is no exception.”
EPS 071 | THE MIX TAPE RADIO SHOW
EPISODE 71 mixes up some old songs with some new songs with some not that old but not that new. The end result is another tasty soundtrack for a small part of your day. So get out the headphones, put them on your head & press play.
