Crickets, and the occasional coyote.

 

The FADER #78 podcast

Double rap covers make for our secret favorite mixes. The FADER #78 podcast is warmly hip-hopped out, featuring a totally bonkers, previously unreleased Danny Brown track and a healthy dose of songs by LA’s Black Hippy crew laced throughout. When other genres blend in, things get beautifully weird: Young Sam mashed into Maria Minerva, Schoolboy Q rapping over an ecstatic Unicorn Kid instrumental. Not to mention Ceremony’s hardcore, Action Bronson’s peculiar Queens anthem, an intro by recent office visitor 2 Chainz and great songs by Lower Dens and The Congos.

I thought I heard this before; I was wrong - I'm listening to it now.

 

Saturday, I visited my mother, little knowing I'd be doing something I've avoided doing for most of my life.

"Hello Son ... lovely to see you ... come in ... sit down ... sit down ... here's a cornish pasty we're going to watch this."

This one did get to me I'd be interested to hear more by her

Speed's Blue Oyster reminded me of Blue Oyster Cult

 

Absolutely hilarious

 

Yesterday, Bob Dylan (along with Toni Morrison, John Glenn and others) received the Presidential Medal of Freedom, the country's highest civilian honor.

This has been stuck in my head for the last couple days.

 

I have that one one of my youtube playlists and play it at random intervals.
Currently playing a Bill Gaither Homecoming video, one of the slightly older ones with many people that have passed since.
MST3K videos have been heavy on my viewing time lately. I tend to watch part of them, then might get back to them and finish it.

I have to blame CinnamonGirl for showing this track to me in the first place via this thread.

 

The Fader #79

Philip Glass is an icon of the avant-garde, which more or less means the star of FADER #79
is a weirdo of mythic proportions. In that spirit, and in his honor, we’ve crafted one of
our most delightfully strangest podcasts yet.

Playlist: (and proceeds)

Just five songs, clocking in at under 20 minutes, the mix covers Kindness’ “lo-fi with hi-fi values” disco, Bola’s Ghanaian stomp, a delicate song from Julia Holter and a huge one from Glass’ recently completed Symphony No. 9, before heading clubwards with Slava and the Russian artist Vtgnike, from Nicolas Jaar’s compilation inside a cube. Interspersed samples include inspirational words from Ron Morelli of L.I.E.S., the morning routine of Mr. Muthafuckin’ eXquire, Miami rapper Gunplay’s best coke-rat impression and FADER’s own Alex Frank and Mobolaji Dawodu imagining Philip Glass’ apartment.
