This month’s mix is overstuffed, a few different threads woven together haphazardly. You know, like now. The main theme, lest it be missed, is guitars. Later in the year I’ll list my favorite releases of the year, but I should mention now that my favorite and most-listened-two records this year are Eugene McDaniels’s Outlaw and […]
Here is October 2020’s mix, arriving like a now seasonally-inappropriate, but not yet rotten, pumpkin on your stoop. Our lockdown ended just in time for this very good pumpkin/bat based piece to get painted under a bridge near me between Princess Prince’s Park and Royal Park. If history is any guide, it will be painted […]

This month, I continued listening to Outlaw and Headless Heroes of the Apocalypse on repeat.

Tracklist: 1) “August 10” — Khruangbin — Con […]
I listened to a lot of music this month, most of which is not in this mix. Key among the songs that inspired it, but are not here, is “Pig Feet” by Terrace Martin with features from Denzel Curry, Daylyt, Kamasi Washington, and G Perico. The Quietus’ “Albums of the Year So Far” was a […]
This started its life as “May pt. 2,” now it might be “June pt. 1,” or it might just be “June.” I made it, disconnected, with the winter solstice in view. I just bought a grill and now I stand outside in the dark at 6pm, grilling things, listening to this. As always, h/t to […]
There will be two mixes this month. Both share some inspirations, but I’ve separated them out for reasons that will become obvious (?). Those inspirations include, but are not limited to: 1) leaving my apartment and getting coffee 2) learning what a coffee shop AU is 3) this playlist Rosalía made 4) the movie Babylon […]
