As the tumult of the ‘60s subsides, America yearns for something smoother —— soft rock… yacht rock… easy listening… call it what you want, these sentimental, foolish men pour their souls out over the soothing sounds of the ‘70s.

A special guest mix by legendary cruciverbalist Caleb Madison.

This week, we're excited to present a synth-laden, 80s-inspired mix by special guest @simfossil:

“The theme of this mix is a certain new age sound and flavor from 80s recordings. I traced this sound through the work of many Japanese artists (hence the Shibas on the cover) and I would say this became the backbone of the mix: music by the legendary Haruomi Hosono, Yuji Toriyama and many more. The vibe is unique and experimental, a new age-y, jazz-rock-y type of deal. I’ve been quite inspired for a long time by the character and creativity of this era; something about the guitar and instrumentation gives it that special touch. Personally, as a producer, I’m a big fan of Yamaha instruments, in particular the DX7, which I’ve come to associate with this time in music. Though Japanese artists are the central thread, I’ve made a kind of fusion of many different things that to me capture this special flavor.”

Music for a sultry and dangerous LA night, selected by @cafe_molly and @maxsalty. Live on Dublab 09.16.20.

dublab | LA noir w/ molly lewis & max salty

This is a recording of a set originally streamed live on VPN Radio on the 4th of July. Saish (aka SwarJi) had hit me up that morning and asked, since we were all stuck at home for the holiday (and feeling more than a bit skeptical of the spirit of patriotism), if I wanted to join him for an impromptu stream and play some music--less as a celebration of the 4th than an angsty refutation. Naturally I pulled some drum & bass records and adjacent 'fast music' for channeling these feelings! As the stuck-at-home-reading-heavy-news days stretch on I think that we're all still feeling a need for some kind of defiant catharsis, and I hope that this can help someone out there to achieve that! Thank you to Saish for the very appropriate cover image and to the mmarz fam for letting me share this recording :) peace - @berrmax
