Flatbasset Radio: Episode #79

"It takes strength to be gentle & kind..."

Well hello again, podcast fans! Welcome to Flatbasset Radio: Episode #79!

Folks, summer's officially upon us and, in tribute, I've got red-hot jams lined up for this week's episode. As per usual, sorry for the gap between episodes. I'm very lazy. Conversely, thanks to everybody who did check out Episode #78. My buddy Nick & I teamed up for that one and I think it turned out to be the best one we've ever teamed up for.

That, however, is the last episode. On this week's show I've got a jam from my favorite reunited punk band, a cut from an iconic soundtrack, a set for our brothers & sisters in England, a spotlight on Flatbasset Radio's Album Of The Week, some under-informed political talk, a check-in on some of our Twin Cities friends, a few anniversaries, a lot of sweating, even more swearing, and my absolute ultimate summer jam! All that plus the Cover Of The Week & one of the most classic Flatbasset Flatclassics ever!

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 #79 (with all the appropriate iTunes tagging), just click here.

Flatbasset Radio: Episode #64 (Young Sandwich's Summer Mix Pt. 2)

Take me out beyond the stress...

I told you we'd be back!

That's right, Pt. 2 of Young Sandwich's Summer Mix is here.  I won't bore you with all the details of how this mix came to be (scroll down a post for all of that).

Pt. 2 picks up right where Pt. 1 left off, but it definitely has a few more left turns than yesterday's show.  Think of it as the indulgent Side B to yesterday's more immediate Side A. Nick & I put together a second half that takes some long detours into funk, latino prog-rock, NY hip-hop, local R&B, alt-country, pop-punk, and a whole host of other classic stuff.  If you dug the first half of the Summer Mix than this is the perfect complement.

Newest Industry Presents: Flatbasset Radio - Episode #17

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

I'll turn this plane around, yo' ass keep complainin'

Hello again, free music fans! Welcome to Flatbasset Radio: Episode #17!

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 or download!

In this week's edition Droogsy laments missed opportunities during last week's black out, complains about cell phone alarms, tries to defend Kanye West, wishes he heard more variety in the hip-hop blasting out of car speakers, celebrates the upcoming Pride Weekend festivities, embraces the return of some true Twin Cities legends, and, like a tried and true Minnesotan, complains about the weather.
