This week's show covers new music from UK poet and rapper Kae Tempest, pairing up with Brockhampton alum Kevin Abstract, a new synthpop banger from Mitski, a soundtrack cut from Little Barrie and Tony Coote, and Cat Power’s devastating cover of the jazz standard “I’ll Be Seeing You,” originally made famous by Bing Crosby and Billie Holiday who both covered it in 1944.
For the archive pick this week, Mark selects a choice track from DJ Shadow’s debut album, Endtroducing….., which came out in 1996 but still sounds fresh and extra-cool. (The blend of scratching and sampling woven together is superb.) The song in question is entitled, “Midnight in a Perfect World.”
Of course, there are six more bonus tracks, but you have to sign up for our email newsletter to get those. 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 great week!
