I get the sense you thought that I was going to bail on the dance floor...
Well hello again, podcast fans! Welcome to another Flatbasset Radio 2015 countdown!
Much like the last episode, I'm back with some more instant nostalgia here on Episode #71. This time around I'm celebrating everybody's favorite college radio station by counting down my ten favorite songs that were given away via Radio K's Track Of The Day podcast. Again, who doesn't love a good countdown?
For those unaware of Radio K's TOTD podcast, I highly suggest you look into it. Follow this link, subscribe to the show, and each and every weekday you'll find a new song waiting for you. Radio K's selection of songs is, for better and worse, a bit more varied than The Current's version. The highs are high and the lows are low. As you're about to hear, though, it's definitely worth the effort.
For this countdown I only have a couple of criteria:
01. The song only had to be released as a Radio K TOTD track in 2015. The song didn't necessarily have to get its proper release in 2015.
02. No songs from albums I eventually purchased. If I did pick up an album that contained a TOTD track, I've probably already played something from it here on the show. This is especially important on this episode since Radio K turned me on to a ton of local music this year that I eventually picked up. Most of those songs will end up on next week's show, so stay tuned.
So kick back, push play, and bask in the glory of 2015.
(Full disclosure, again: I don't work for Radio K or the University Of Minnesota. I'm too old to work for Radio K anyway. I'm just playing these songs out of love.)
