Work and family have been ruling the day the past month hence the lack of issues. The podcasts have been flowing but the music not so much.
One of the better podcast episodes I listened to recently is “The Making of SET YOURSELF ON FIRE by Stars” in their own words. This album was incredibly influential for me in high school and I loved giving it a re-listen with the added context of how it all came together.
This week’s playlist covers a lot of ground but it starts and ends slow. My favorite off the playlist is “End of Summer” from Tame Impala. It is one of those tracks that is so layered you pick out something new on each listen (doesn’t hurt you have 7 minutes to do this either).
Happy listening.
P.S. thanks to Jamie for the rec on LaMP!
Looking for new music? Love art? Every week I create a short, five track playlist of the songs I am feeling at the moment along with a beautiful, found postcard. It’s a spark of joy for your eyes and ears.
