Wasn't sure if I was going to do one of these this year, but had enough people request it to convince me :) I'll post this with the tracklist over on GvsB in the next day or so, but I thought I'd post it up a little early here for yall. Dark summer vibes for 2020. Hope everyone is doing okay, tha...

If you're checking the blog these days, then you already know one of the few things we're genuinely psyched about in summer 2020 is the amazing new Jessy Lanza album All The Time, 2020-07-23 13:17:22 +0000 UTC View Post
The absurdly prolific Nico Jaar has been on a tear this year, most recently dropping his 3rd full-length of 2020, Telas, just this past week. His catalog can feel impenetrable to the uninitiated --...

Today's mix is an intro to one of my favorite artists in the history of the blog: Noah Lennox of Animal Collective, aka Panda Bear. I feel like outside of Person Pitch -- which is widely considered a masterpiece -- Panda Bear's sol...

To get yall psyched for their new album I Feel Alive, dropping 2 weeks from today, today's mini-mix features some of the best jams from one of my favorite bands in the world, Montreal's TOPS. Taken a listen below, and if you're considering picking up their new albu...

Today's mini-mix is a selection of essentials from enigmatic South London producer Burial. I tried not to lean too heavily on his recent Tunes 2011-2019 release (all of which is incredible and highly recommended), so as to offer a broader look at how he's evolved since h...

Here's today's second mini-mix, from legendary Detroit producer J Dilla. Again, it's probably futile to attempt to sum up his contribution to music in a single 50 minute mix, but with some choice Donuts highlights, one from his group Slum Village, ...

I've got two new mini-mixes for yall today, and while I definitely won't be able to keep up the 2x a day pace, these next two artists have meant everything to me at various points of my life, and I've been listening to them a lot these days while hunkering down at home. It's impossible to p...

I refrain from doing a "most anticipated albums" post at the beginning of each year, mainly because the albums I generally end up being most psyched about are the ones we don't even know about yet. But, there are a ton of newer artists I can't wait to hear new material from in 2020; I'll...
