Newest Industry Presents - Flatbasset Radio: Episode #36

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

I think I'm on another world with you...

Hello again, free music fans! Welcome to Flatbasset Radio: Episode #36!
 
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 flying solo yet again.  Along the way he laments the Wild's loss to Chicago, explains his absence by admitting he's a very tired guy, celebrates the anniversary of a classic hip-hop album, mispronounces some more artists' names, gets skeptical about The Replacements hometown show, confesses to being a very simple man, celebrates Twin Shadow going "full R.E.O. Speedwagon," claims that "sometimes the world needs more big & stupid," plays the first ever request on the podcast, gets a little bro-mantic, makes his peace with great Brit-Pop wars of the 90's, and celebrates one of his favorite band's greatest records.

Newest Industry Presents: Flatbasset Radio - Episode #7 (2012 Song Of The Day Countdown!)

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

There's no way to forget it all...

Well hello again, music fans! Welcome back to Flatbasset Radio!

December is list making time and we're no exception. This week's podcast is a special one as TCDroogsma counts down his 15 favorite tracks given away by The Current via their Song Of The Day podcast!

As well as running ten minutes longer than he was allowed, TCDroogsma struggles to title his own podcast, loses all credibility with the youth of the Twin Cities, bases his top choice on his own unique life situation, and explains exactly why it is that he's obsessed with the Song Of The Day podcast even though he kind of hates it.
