Flatbasset Radio: Episode #68

Someday you will find me caught beneath the landslide...

Well hello again, podcast fans. Welcome to Episode #68 of the Flatbasset Radio show!

Thanks for stopping by this week, devoted listener(s). I'm coming down with a cold this week and I figured staying inside and playing some jams would be the best way to cope with it. If I have to live with this messed up voice then so do you!

In this week's show I play some jams and talk about being sick, our old friends in Nashville, some new local hip-hop from some not-so-new artists, explain just how late to the party I was on one of the Twin Cities best bands, revisit last week's "good shoegaze vs. bad shoegaze" discussion, scratch my experimental electro-jazz itch, celebrate Sweden's greatest pop-punk export, reminisce about old St. Paul record stores, & give some winter advice.  All that plus coughing and all the popped "P's" you could ever want!

Of course I also celebrate some anniversaries, get in a Cover Of The Week, and take a trip back to an iconic single for the Flatbasset Flatclassic.

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

Flatbasset Radio's 50 Most Played Albums: January '15

Hello again, everybody.  February is upon us and, if you haven't noticed, it's fucking frigid outside.  I blame that goddamn Punxsutawney Phil.  Can't be too mad, though.  Clearly that shadow-seeing rodent knows his shit.

Anyway, like I always do at the start of the month, it's time to take a look back at the 50 Most Played Albums around Planet New Basset.

As always, you can keep up with what's being played here in real time by checking out my Last.fm page, though honestly, I have no idea why you would want to do that.  Frankly, I'm not even sure why you're still reading this.  Whatever. It's your life.

Newest Industry Presents - Flatbasset Radio: Episode #39 (w/MinneSarah

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

I need some time in the sun-shee-yine...

Hello, podcast fans!  Welcome to Flatbasset Radio: Episode #39!

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!

For the second straight week TCDroogsma ventured to St. Paul to share co-hosting duties with MinneSarah.  Along the way they discuss the new Twin Cities "It Boy," the origin of Madison, Wisconsin, the career of Las Vegas' greatest band, their "radio personas," the power of rock n roll duos, songs to soundtrack mowing the lawn, the sexiness of Norah Jones, lessons learned from "Family Guy," a great show that's coming up this weekend, why you probably shouldn't come to Flatbasset Radio for the latest in hip-hop, whether or not 1994 was the pinnacle of human evolution, how rock bands no longer aim for universal appeal, and whether or not Oasis was better than The Beatles!  All that plus your Cover Of The Week & Flatbasset Flatclassic!
