Playlist 322 - Sept 2 2014
A special extended 2-hour show this week to usher us back in after the August recess. And there was quite the backlog of stonking new music to get through.
Like Wildbirds & Peacedrums, stripping the punk out of punk funk to leave you with something sounding like Nina Simone jamming with LCD Soundsystem. And Caribou, with more delicious deep soul/house grooves.
There's some gorgeous new folk cuts from Rachael Dadd, Lutine and Mary Lattimore & Jeff Zeigler finishing this first hour.
Some intriguing psych from Brother Earth, and cosmic country from The Asteroid #4.
And kosmische from the debut SlowPlaceLikeHome album, that's a beaut; and the new Laetitia Sadier project, Little Tornados. Like The Fall, she's always the same, always different.
Plus a Japanese memory from 1996 by Takako Minekawa, alongside something from her new album with Dustin Wong, the completely unhinged and wonderful slice of wonky pop that is 'She he see feel'.
And in the second hour more nuggets than the Yukon.
Psych flavoured ones like Allah-Las, The Altered Hours, Ty Segall.
Baroque ones like Paul Smith & Peter Brewis and Paul Guiot & Paul Piot with a library music treasure from the Connectors compilation.
Sublime orchestral shapes from A Winged Victory For The Sullen and like-minded ambient drones from Bell Gardens.
Twerps and The Go Betweens are both Australian (!).
And, for the superior guitar rock fans among you, Parquet Courts and Merchandise, the latter especially is one of the songs of the year for me.
More on these pages as always.
