This week's show covers new music from Catalonia’s Rosalía, from Malian guitarist and singer Vieux Farka Touré backed up by Houston’s Khruangbin, a new tune from Durham, NC’s The Mountain Goats, and Cambridge, England’s Anish Kumar.
For the archive track this week, Brendan whips out a favorite from <checks notes> 14 years ago, from Melbourne’s Cut Copy. This is perhaps their signature song, “Lights & Music,” expertly produced by Tim Goldsworthy, then affiliated with DFA Records. While it came out in 2008, it has some many elements from dance and indie music that is still sounds great, all these years later.
Of course, there are six more bonus tracks, but you have to sign up for our email newsletter to get those. (Great music is included there, too, ladies and gentlemen.) It's pretty easy to do, if you just click this link. (And do so without fear. We won't misuse your email address, as this show is run by two guys, Mark and Brendan; Not some faceless corporation.)
Lastly, don't miss our fabulous Spotify playlists. We make one for each episode of the show, so grab the latest if you are up to date, and dig into previous episodes if you are new here, or just curious. Have a terrific week!
