Flatbasset Radio: Episode #80 (Canada Day Special!)

"Like leaves from an old maple..."

Well hello again, everybody! Welcome to a very special episode of Flatbasset Radio!

Folks, if you didn't know, today is Canada Day! That's right, our brother to the North is celebrating today and we're here to celebrate right along with them. To be honest, there's a part of me that's surprised the same human garbage that uses Cinco De Mayo & St. Patty's Day as an excuse to get completely wrecked hasn't co-opted Canada Day yet, but their loss is our gain.

To celebrate, I've put together a whole episode devoted to Canadian artists large and small. We check in with some of Flatbasset Radio's favorites, some new artists, jangling indie pop, throwback hip-hop, hardcore, power-pop, and everything in between as we crisscross the vast expanse that is Canada. Along the way I manage to butcher the French language (again), attempt to explain how Minnesota's the bridge between Canada & the U.S., compare Winnipeg to St. Paul (minus the playoff hockey, of course), and somehow avoid playing Drake (it wasn't easy). All that plus the Cover Of The Week & Flatbasset Flatclassic!

Flatbasset Radio: Episode #66 (Young Sandwich's Autumn Mix)

I stopped sharkin' a minute to get chips & drinks...

Well hello again, podcast fans. Welcome to Flatbasset Radio: Episode #66!


It's fall outside, kiddos, and that means it's time to put on your hoodies, pull out your hats, and indulge in Young Sandwich's Autumn Mix!

As he always does when the seasons change, my buddy Nick (aka Young Sandwich) stopped by to drop off an hour long seasonally-appropriate mix and this year's no exception. As you can see from the track list below, this Autumn Mix sticks to Nick's format of covering as many bases as possible in an hour. There's East Coast rap, impovisational jazz, 90's grunge, iconic folkies, 60's British rock, ska-punk, old-timey guitar theatrics, British hip-hop, 90's refugees, and one epic prog-rock jam. Somehow he makes all this work. What a beauty.

As always, Flatbasset Radio is completely free. Just click the Mixcloud player below and you're good to go.

Newest Industry Presents: Flatbasset Radio - Episode #6

(IF YOU CAN BELIEVE IT, THIS POST ORIGINALLY APPEARS ON THE TWIN CITIES BLOG NEWEST INDUSTRY.  HENCE THE TITLE.  PRETTY STRAIGHT FORWARD...)

Ain't got no milk, no mothafuckin' cereal...

Well hello again, free music fans!  Welcome to the sixth episode of Flatbasset Radio!

As you may or may not know by now, Flatbasset Radio is a weekly podcast put together by regular contributor TCDroogsma.  He spends so much time on this blog being a snarky asshole that we almost feel obligated to have him put together a podcast to prove that yes, he does actually like music.

This week TCDroogsma reveals his personal theme song, reluctantly plays Neil Young, coldly uses his friends heartache for his own selfish means, laments the breakup of the internet's favorite rap group, ponders a world in which Interpol died in a tire fire, and celebrates Phatnumber's birthday!

If, for some reason, this is not enough TCDroogsma he can be found on Twitter (@TCDroogsma).  Give him a follow if you like inside jokes between him and his idiot friends.  He can also be found rambling away on his own Flatbasset blog.  You were warned.

Of course Newest Industry also maintains a Twitter home (@NewestIndustry1).  Give us a follow to stay up on the work being done by all of our contributors.  More importantly, we have a Facebook page here.  Though it seems trivial, stopping by and giving us a "like" is actually the best way to support Newest Industry short of buying us each a new pair of gloves.
