Flatbasset Radio: Episode #129

I've had all that I can take today...

Well hello again, everybody. Welcome to Flatbasset Radio: Episode #129!

Folks, I know it's been a few weeks since put up a new show and believe me, you have my most sincere apologies for that. I wanted to do the show, but I've been doing nothing but working, sweating, and napping in this godforsaken heat bubble of a city that I just didn't get it done. My bad. I'm back, though, better than ever.

This week's show is front-to-back bangers. I've got plenty of new local music, some throwback local jams, a batch of anniversaries (funny how a few weeks off does that), a couple new West Coast obsessions, our continued exploration of the Disposable America catalog, our weekly deep dive into Nate's Archives, the Cover Of The Week, a trip in the Minnesota Way-Back Machine, and, of course, the Flatbasset Flatclassic.

As always, Flatbasset Radio is completely free. I've finally set up a decent downloading site, so if you'd like to download Flatbasset Radio: Episode #129 (with all the appropriate iTunes tagging), just click here.

Newest Industry Presents - Flatbasset Radio: Episode #32 (w/MinneSarah)

(THIS POST ORIGINALLY APPEARS ON THE TWIN CITIES BLOG NEWEST INDUSTRY)

My only friends are koalas & hedgehogs...

Hello again, free music fans! Welcome to Flatbasset Radio: Episode #32!
 
For those of you who are unaware of the Flatbasset Radio format, here's what you're looking at: TCDroogsma is our resident MP3 junkie. As you've probably noticed in his Songs Of The Week column, he's not always the most positive music fan. In an effort to prove that he is, in fact, a fan of music, we give him an hour each week to play the songs he's digging and talk a little bit about them. Once he's recorded his podcast we put it right here on the website for free to stream and/or download!

In this week's episode TCDroogsma is back in St. Paul to play some jams with co-host MinneSarah.  Along the way they discuss Damon Albarn's heartache, whether Mexico City is behind or ahead of the times, Droogsy's favorite Canadian rapper, the slight differences between America & England, President's Day, the merger of D.C. hardcore and Spelling Bees, The Guardian's magical way with words, their favorite Steely Dan song, De La Soul's gaming of the system, the dominant music trend of 2014, their all-time favorite Twin Cities radio stations, and play a Flatbasset Flatclassic to celebrate Valentine's Day a week after the fact.

You can download the podcast for free by clicking the episode's title or stream the episode by clicking on the Mixcloud player below.
