This isn’t a competition. It’s a collaboration.
Episode 105 kicks off with Matt Dorrien feeling lost & before things close out with Evan Wright thinking that something might be wrong hear, you’ll hear artists like Young Jesus and Kiraiyzu, you’ll go from a mood to finer feelings and there’ll be a full moon lullaby for you & me.
“I would recommend finding something that you enjoy outside of your career or passion. For example, I reached a point where everything in my life revolved around music. So I’ve picked up some hobbies, like playing basketball, and watching Netflix, and cooking, etc. Being a whole person, not just pieces of one.”
“You say there's an album where Joshua James covers Modest Mouse? Ok, I'm listening (literally).”
“Be more sceptical. Not cynical (admittedly that's a tricky line to walk), but demand a reasonable standard of evidence for everything, be it scientific, social, personal, or political.”
“Always feel like I'm the only person in the room when I'm listening to Nap Eyes. I've a feeling some gigs of theirs may be like that too; back room of a cafe type stuff, for the fortunate few to stumble on. That's how I fantasize about seeing them anyway.”
“Swimming. All year round. Summer in the sea or a lake. Winter is trickier if you’re holed up in a mountainous snow but for the most part there’s a heated community pool nearby. I recommend 3 mornings a week. This will make amends for whatever else you do.”
Episode 104 kicks off with a stroll thru the blues, and before backs are arched and things fade to you, there’ll be some Allen Toussaint, Faye Webster, Lady Lamb, Frog and a whole bunch more audio niceness to treat your ears with.
“Go swimming as often as possible. Or, if you’re one of those weirdos who hates getting wet, ride bikes.”
A Playmoss playlist for all the Bandcamp tracks shuffle up’d in July 2019.
