Episode #002: Fost & Lound

In honor of Liz Pelly's excellent new book Mood Machine on the dark realities of our post-Spotify music economy, we curated a mix of heat exclusively unavailable on DSPs.

The Mumbai-based music journalist and eternal homie Bhanuj Kappal dropped in for an insightful conversation on the positive impact of piracy on non-Western economies, how craving “personalization” actually pushes us into lonely silos, and select hits you can only find on his private hard drive.
