I hope this new episode finds you well, and gives you a little solace in this insane situation that’s shaking the world. We’ll get through this as best we can. Meanwhile, dive in. We’ve got new tracks, 30 darkly drifting minutes with Phobos, and a quick tour of the library. Be well, be safe, be kind to each other.

I get some pretty weird music around here sometimes, and it needs to be heard, too. So we start there and journey forth. If it’s not particular your cup of joy, stick around–we’ll pay a visit to our old friend analog around the middle part, and close off with some long drifts. No stops on this one.

I make it a habit to keep track of tracks that give an “ooh” moment, either while I’m shuffling the Newish queue or when the library is picking out the music in the office. And sometimes, I refer back to those tracks I’ve tracked and I make a podcast out of them. A mix of new and library this time, with the tracks from the stacks up front.

Could I cut into a flow this deep? No, I could not. All from the Newish queue, though we do go back into it little ways… Call them pre-library tracks. Enjoy.
