TSC36: From the River to the Sea to the Aux Cord feat. Sijal Nasralla (Dunums, The Muslims)

Wednesday, February 28, 2024 • Duration 02:11:11

Sijal Nasralla is a diaspora Palestinian who makes music and maqluba in Durham, North Carolina. Dunums is a project that describes itself as "Arty, noisey, post-rock, bedroom fake-jazz for a free Palestine. Blending memory and homeland heartache into feelings, full sonic moments on family, love, rage, and how "God" will always be greater". SIjal also plays drums in The Muslims, a "crunchy, kickass punk band of Black + brown queer muzzies." Sijal and I set out on a deeply personal and liberatory rabbit hole where we pass the aux cord back and forth at the Free Palestine party. This mixtape is quintessentially diasporic; reflecting the experience of having our feet in two cultures that are in constant and intense flux with one another. We abhor the empire but adore Dolly Parton. Free Palestine // End the Genocide // Zionist Punks, Fuck Off

Part I of a survey of (mostly) funky African music via today’s crop of excellent global reissue labels. These dedicated labels are introducing and reintroducing strains of outstanding West African music, new and old, to ears that have largely ignored the region’s under-recognized contributions to the breadth of music. We run through Hilife, Afrobeat, Gumbe, Afro-Rock, Malian Peulh, Edo Funk, Country-Folk, Agadez Rock, and then some.

Next up is Part II where we’ll explore the musical gems of East Africa.

TSC25: Profound Lore Records feat. Phil’s Breakfast Metal

Monday, August 15, 2022 • Duration 03:04:53

We’re back for another record label discography deep dive. We teamed up with Phil (Phil’s Breakfast Metal) once again to take on the mighty Profound Lore Records, a label which has left a singular mark on the world of forward thinking and riff-bringing metal & dark music. We discussed our first exposure to the label and its inevitable legendary status in setting the bar for extreme metal over the past two decades. Phil and I each plucked four tracks from the label’s rich catalog, which was not an easy task. Stick around till the end to hear our honorable mentions (also not an easy task). Support Profound Lore Records on Bandcamp and the label’s web store

TSC23: Pre Post-Rock with Ian King (Stereogum, Under the Radar Mag, Author of ”Appetite for Definition”)

Monday, May 9, 2022 • Duration 03:15:18

Author & music writer, Ian King (Under the Radar Mag, Stereogum, Author of "Appetite for Definition: An A-Z Guide to Rock Genres"), joins me as we tackle the wide and undefinable world of post-rock. We wrestle with this genre’s cringe name, quote Simon Reynolds ad nauseam, ponder why post-rock bands prefer to play live while sitting on chairs, and run through a based post-rock playlist curated by Ian. True to form, only real post-rock heads will stick around for the full runtime on this one. Lift your skinny fists and smash that subscribe button.

TSC21: Planes Mistaken For Stars w/ Damian Master (A Pregnant Light)

Damian Master (A Pregnant Light, Colloquial Sound Recordings) dropped by to confess his love for the most underrated, savage band in rock & roll and post-hardcore: the mighty Planes Mistaken For Stars. I asked Damian to select his most beloved tracks from each of the major PMFS releases. We covered everything from the first 10’’ to their 2016 comeback record, Prey. In our discussion, we get into everything from PMFS’s influence on A Pregnant Light, Gared’s inimitable voice and lyrics, and the evolution of the band from “planesmistakenforstars” to just “Planes”. This one’s a real gem in The Sonic Cloth canon as Damian’s got stories for days and lets em rip. Huge thanks to Damian for dropping by the show and setting the record straight on this brilliant beautiful band. RIP Gared O’Donnell. We ride to fight!
