A mix for some inside listening. A lot of the songs here come from Martha, Motive, and Passport Radio on NTS this month. The cover features Bosch’s “Un ángel conduce a un alma por las regiones infernales” (you can see it in full here). Tracklist: 1) “Like I Loved You” — Caribou — Suddenly 2) […]
Tracklist: 1) “everything i wanted” — Billie Eilish — everything i wanted 2) “Summertime” — Vince Staples — Summertime ‘06 3) “No Idea” — Don Toliver — No Idea 4) “Both” — Headie One — Music x Road 5) “Gangway” — Lil Herb/G Herbo — Gangway 6) “Juro Que” — ROSALÍA — Juro Que 7) […]
A little late, but here we are. These are songs that came out in January 2020 or in (mostly late) 2019, inspired by listening to The Neon Skyline a bunch of times. Tracklist: 1) “Fire” — Waxahatchee — Fire 2) “Lost In Yesterday” — Tame Impala — Lost In Yesterday 3) “the view” — Oso Oso […]
After much time spent on the “best” of 2019, here is the last of 2019. I drew on end of year lists that looked at music with a different perspective than my own, like The Quietus and FACT. This mix is meant to be listened to while mixing cocktails before the first dawn of a […]
Year-end lists are a particular thing trying to be universal. That’s where the pleasure, and frustration, lies: discovering you agree with strangers on the internet (and trying not to be smug about it), or being miffed that strangers on the internet are wrong. At best, scrolling down a list of the year’s best “____” is […]
And…here’s part 2, which saw us through some solid turkey and better biscuits. These are, again, mostly songs released in the last few months. h/t to Naomi Zeichner’s show on NTS, which continues to be great. I’m still working on how to include the corrido stuff I’ve heard her play in a mix… For now, […]
Part one of two, other to come later. This one is (almost) 19 rap songs from 2019. Tracklist: 1) “Chandelier (feat. Curren$y)” — Shoreline Mafia — Party Pack. Vol 2 2) “Song 32” — Noname — Song 32 3) “Must Be” — J Hus — Must Be 4) “Maria” — 03 Greedo, Kenny Beats — […]
Many of these songs are sampled somewhere else, others I just enjoyed on their own but couldn’t find a place for them previously. Hope you enjoy this decidedly not-spooky (though jazzier than usual) mix. Tracklist: 1) “All Alone” — Mal Waldron — All Alone 2) “Off Minor – Bonus Track” — Thelonious Monk — Monk’s […]
It’s Spring, though that’s not always obvious. Here is a mix that should work if you’re alone on a beach after Labor Day, or on a roof in the afternoon. Some inspiration from the NTS shows I listen to most months (especially Naomi Zeichner’s show, that’s the source for “Swaggu” below). Tracklist: 1) “Dark & […]
Tracklist: 1) “Everything Hits At Once” — Spoon — Girls Can Tell 2) “Naeem” — Bon Iver — i,i 3) “Drunk II” — Mannequin Pussy — Patience 4) “basking in the glow” — Oso Oso — basking in the glow 5) “Stay Useless” — Cloud Nothings — Attack on Memory 6) “This Life” — Vampire […]
