music, podcasts, mirth
Monday, September 22nd, 2008Lately I have been busy crossing genres between Bon Iver and Fleet Foxes (which we saw just last week at Element in Victoria) and some podcasts by Erol Alkan and Tiga. Alkan’s Beyond The Wizards Sleeve (link will open up iTunes) was recorded at G-Mex in Manchester and is stuck on repeat for me at the moment. This youtube video of Alkan at Coachella 2008 is pretty unstoppable.
Another brilliant podcast is WNYC’s Radio Lab hosted by Jad Abumrad and Robert Krulwich. Each show is unique and has an amazing story to tell, but Zoe Keating’s supersonic cello magic (iTunes) is really something to hear.
Lastly, enjoy Dawn Landes playing Young Folks (bluegrass style).
