It’s been a rather interesting, slightly intense, time around these parts since the last show with, of course, the sad passing of a Minnesota music legend in Prince this week, and then KMSU being a fairly active place with its annual Spring Pledge Drive going on. On top of that, I have also been working…
I’ve been feeling a bit under the weather over the past few days, so hopefully the talk breaks don’t sound even more scatterbrained than usual on this episode. I wanted to keep things on track with the podcast, though, this time focusing mostly on a bunch of newer music that has arrived in the past…
I was pleased to have Shawn Reed of Night People Records join me once again on the podcast show for this week. I did a feature on Night People with Shawn back in February of 2011 when I was just getting the podcast up and running. At that time Shawn was living in Iowa City…
I’m still working my way through the piles of music that I’ve acquired over the past couple of months, so on this installment of the FFFoxy Podcast show you’ll again hear plenty of newer releases and reissues, along with a couple of older tracks that I thought tied-in well with that material. Things start off…
On account of kicking around a few different feature show possibilities and slowly gathering up a decent-sized pile of new music to play, I’m a few weeks overdue on putting a new podcast show together. I can assure you, though, that I haven’t gone into complete hibernation mode, even though we’ve had to endure a…
Greetings and Happy New Year from a very frigid upper Midwest. As I was stumbling into the studio in the dim early morning hours to record this show, the wind chill was hovering in the sub-zero range and slated to drop even further into the negative double digits in the days ahead. So, as we…
Here’s the second in the series of FFF year-end pieces. This time around I combed through the hundreds of tapes that arrived this year, either through direct purchases or through artist/label submissions, and pulled together a small overview of the things that really stood out. As I noted with the previous reissue/archival list, I could’ve…
Hope everyone is having a pleasant holiday time of year. I thought I would put together one more show before we all turn the page on 2015, and I think there are some incredible sounds – both new and old – scattered throughout the entirety of this episode. I’m going to keep things brief this…
As with previous years, I’ll be posting a series of separate year-end lists here on the site over the coming weeks, starting with a few of my favorite reissue/archival releases. With plenty of terrific reissues coming out at a steady clip throughout the year (too many, really), I could’ve easily expanded this list well into…
We have a very special show for you this week focusing on the work of Pumice, a New Zealand-based project that has been around since the mid-90’s and has since gone on to release a number of superb albums that are stylistically wide-reaching – from battered folk and pop songs to expansive droning chord organ…
