This isn’t a competition. It’s a collaboration.
EPISODE 54 kicks off with a poncho wearing instrumental from OPEZ, and before it closes out with a jam from Ty Segall, you'll hear stuff from Waxahatchee, Lord Huron, Faith Healer and Mute Forest, Hillfolk Noir, Julie Arsenault and a bunch more good stuff.
“There's something about losing the convenience of skipping tracks that shapes a listening experience. Having this as a single 40 minute mix reminds me of that, and I love it. This is a lot of audible texture and its a real raw journey, both humble and unapologetic.”
“I recommend drinking ice water and squeezing a lemon in it. Tart and refreshing.”
“I like to listen to this 2005 speech from Harry Belafonte whenever I get frustrated with politics. There's just something really grounding and inspiring about the way he calls out his own party—plus the two young kids, Barack and Hillary, vying to take over the reigns—right to their faces.”
“There aren't many better bands than SALES around right now. If there was any justice in the world they would be immense. The most gorgeous album.”
"I don't do much of anything the right way. But I will say it's good to learn how to be the jackass in certain situations"
“Great atmospheric Americana you've never heard before. Simply amazing guitar picking, great voice. Check all albums!”
“It's so good it makes me want to cry tears of joy and cuddle on a couch with the sunlight drifting down upon me.”
“Such an atmosphere, such a mood full of feelings, nostalgia, elegance and intensity.”
“I've listened to nothing except this record for the past fortnight and it just keeps getting better - wonderful, wonderful, wonderful.”
"It's lo-fi indie-pop, with cold and cheap instrumentation, deceptively joyful vocal lines and depressing lyrics. A masterpiece!"
