Mix #21

This playlist happens to be longer than normal, but perhaps  that's helpful in these times of social distancing and self isolation. 

Mix #21

There is a lot of bops in here.... new music from LA Priest, Against All Logic (Nicolas Jaar's other thing), Yaeji, Darkstar, Thundercat, Jessy Lanza, Roisin Murphy, Perfume Genius, Jarv Is, Squarepusher and Empress Of. 

Older stuff from Richard & Linda Thompson, Arthur Russell, Dolly Parton (yes I did listen to the podcast), Glen Campbell, Pavement, Gary Numan, there's also one Love song and one Arthur Lee song cos why not! 

Some more Welshies in the mix, plus this cool Japanese punk/new wave band from the 80s, OXZ, and a Turkish spot. 

Also, a reminder, now, more than ever, please support the independent companies/shops/artists you love (I will share some links below).

A few things I did before social distancing kicked in, went to see the Max Martin musical & Juliet (was great fun), went to Bologna (before things kicked off there too), checked out Heat 4 of Man Up (this will continue whenever it can and I have big expectations for the Tommy R*obinson drag king), stayed in an Oast House (very cute) and now it's zoom karaoke/quiz happenings and House Party gatherings till the end of time.  

Stay clean, well and enjoy!

I thought I start sharing playlists. Here's my first one



I'm currently very obsessed with Cate Le Bon, she made her own mugs to coincide with her new album 'Mug Museum'.  Her pottery efforts look far better than mine. There are also a few old favourites, stuff I work and few other recent tracks.
