Episode 483

You might want to turn this one off when you hear the chime. I had the gain on my mic set a little too high so I’m a bit hot on the talky outro bit. I could have gone back and re-recorded but…nah. Meanwhile, there’s sixteen big tracks of goodness that goes a little all over the place. Plus, if you stick around you find out what my CB handle was back in the day.

Episode 476

Okay, this time I’m actually shuffling the deck so you don’t know what’s new and what’s library unless you’re a good guesser. You get analog-style yumminess on this one, along with some metal-flaked post-rock, live performances, feel-good finger-snappers, and more.

Your enjoyment of the music time shall be undisturbed by your host insisting on speaking with you mid-flow. No, you’re on your own as this wends through drifty spots, familiar names and sounds, some grungy guitar, and…one of those.

I went a little crazy and decided to kick us off in the library. I know–wild, right? We’ll spin back into the Holding Tanks at the halfway point, but not before a listen to someone who’s definitely coming to us from the “How Did You End Up Here?” Department. (It’s a pretty cool one, honestly.)

And that’s a wrap on 15 years in production! The podcast turns 16 with a two-hour bash in the library and let me tell you, it’s a pretty eclectic blend. Thank you for listening, whether you’re first time or long time, and for indulging my frequent foolishness. Trust me, it comes from a place of pure joy in having the chance to share amazing music with you. All righty, let’s get the party started!

Who ordered 90 minutes of really good music? Was it you guys? Because I brought some. There’s a little post-rock, some clubby dance stuff, a spacey thing or two…you know what? Just crack it open and let’s dig it together.

This time through, it’s just new music. I’m having some of the chairs in the library reupholstered and the place is a mess. We’ll stay in the main lounge. The beverage cart will be along shortly.

A storm of fiery guitar kicks this one off, pulling bits of New Age and electronic music in its wake. Then we get comfy in the library, greeted by some post-rock (with its own bits of fiery guitar), and hang out until, as often happens, we reach a nice, quiet close.
Oh, yeah, there’s also one of those
