I’d like to say that I have been easing into my usual mellow summer mode, but after dealing with some unseasonably hot days, I feel more like summer has been thrust upon us. This has made for, at times, an intense and exhausting past couple of weeks. The playlist for this installment of the podcast seems reflective of that conflicting headspace: poppy, ambient, and airy in some places while abrasive, chaotic, and confounding in others. But, there’s plenty of great new material that I have to play for you in this episode including impressive new works from Posset, Russ Waterhouse, Will Guthrie, and Angélica Castelló, along with a heavy dose of notable reissue/archival material from the likes of Henri Chopin, Charles Amirkhanian, Nocturnal Projections and much more. I hope you enjoy this new show. Feel free to get in touch if you have any questions or comments. As always, thanks for looking and listening.
