Season 4 Trailer

We got a bunch of interesting listener feedback in our off-season, and it encouraged us to shed some light on why we do things the way we do ‘em. Also, we reflect on our first writeup, which was ... interesting.

BONUS TRACK: How We Got Here

We launch Season 4 by blasting off toward Inner Space, exploring the wild dimension that one German-based collective occupied all on its own. Enjoy the mind-bending magic of pure cosmic inspiration with us.

Episode 025: Can's "Tago Mago"

Most artists would’ve crumbled under the pressure of following up an instant classic like The "Low End Theory", but Tip, Phife, and Shaheed dug even deeper, delivering an even more “precise, bass-heavy, and just right” work in sound and in spirit. Midnight remains a watershed moment for hip-hop, so we must bear witness.

Episode 026: A Tribe Called Quest's "Midnight Marauders"

The heavyweight champion of podcasts for music lovers.

The premise is simple: We dig deep into one album, then we give away that album on vinyl. That’s it.
