    The A.M. - Episode August 31, 2026

    An ambient-leaning first hour, a throwback to a quarter-century-old glam rock musical, and an eclectic third hour that encompasses shoegaze, neo-classical, and oddball folk. In other words, it's another AM full of offbeat easy listening to end your August on a pleasant note.Playlist: Light Conductor - OmenizeBibio, Dorian Concept - Lichen TripSun Drawing, Sea Level - Mornings at the LibraryTenniscoats, Tape - River TogetherAltus - Cold Signal IndexPalladian - Will-O'-Wisp - Arms and Sleepers RemixEasy Idiot - Credits RollHanna Tuulikki, Tommy Perman - Sun Down (Common Pipistrelle & Soprano Pipistrelle)Bullion - ApplegeneTest Card - Suite electriqueFiver - Elemental ProgressionLambchop - WeakenedGilroy Mere - Walk a LineJonathan Personne - La Terre est plateKlint, featuring Rachel Kitchlew - Intermezzo - Orchidea -Stephen Trask - The Origin of LoveStephen Trask - Midnight RadioAllah-Las - Vini da GamaBlack Duck With Elena Setien - Sunshine UnlimitedFiver - Only In the LongingImmersion - What Is Lost Will ReturnCornelius, featuring The Monochrome Set - You Make Me CyborgNo Joy - Süki & AmadeusCloud Studies - Cloud Cartography - Extendedsundayclub - Camera ShyPøltergeist - Morning StarSorrow - EpiphanyGaspar Claus - Désir des astresFinal Fantasy - UltimatumRaf Wilcot - Never the Bride

    The A.M. - Episode August 24, 2026

    Mild technical difficulties can't get a good AM down. This week's episode starts with soul-nourishing sounds from Beverly Glenn-Copeland, wraps with the Durutti Column's most recent magic, and finds room in between for tropical getaways, art-rock detours, and kosmische expanses. Hope you enjoy it.Playlist: Beverly Glenn-Copeland - Light of the HeavensFling II - iliaElskavon - MannequinPostmodern Machine - Pomme PommeHollie Kenniff, Kazuma Okabayashi - Whispering WindsAllison de Groot, Rich Ruth - NervionSamuel Organ, Nailah Hunter, Joel Shearer - AlbionM.

    The A.M. - Episode August 10, 2026

    Laid-back jazz in the first hour, witch-y psychedelia in the second, and an anything-goes third hour featuring Frank Zappa, Fiver, Art Feynman, half of Eric's Trip, and some trippy, drone-inspired Gaelic sounds. Hope you enjoy them, stay out of the smoke, and I'll see you in two weeks.Playlist: Koen Holtkamp - Slow Fox RunPeals - Become YoungerCédric Dind-Lavoie - LignesOHMA - With Loving KindnessKiasmos - Burst (Rachika Nayar & Nina Keith Rework)DJ Shadow, featuring Nils Frahm - ScarsKlein Volk - WeidegangAudio Obscura - I Once Dreamed of Building Castles in SpaceAVI - Black CloudDoomsquad - Disremember/DismembermentGhost Cartridge - reading next to a lampRichard Reed Parry, Dallas Good - Are You Gone (When You're Gone)Avi Engel - Underground MusicLaura Misch - KairosThe Operator Sound Inc - Esoteric Space Age WitchcraftEiyn Sof - Mary On His MindWendy & Bonnie - Five O'Clock in the MorningWendy & Bonnie - Endless PathwayMaya Ongaku - Astral EchosVanishing Twin - Sugar StoneThe Sandals - Theme from "The Endless Summer"Dungen - Det Du Tänker Idag Är Du ImorgonEasy Idiot - Exploring with ZootFrank Zappa - Peaches En RegaliaTrá Pháidín - An Béal BochtFiver - That's A JokeArt Feynman - Always in Need of SomethingDada Plan - Vaguely MysticalRick White, Julie Doiron - The QuestionYoo Doo Right - The Failure of Stiff, Tired FriendsFlywheel - Stop Looking At HerFern Murphy - Sun Between ThemSummer Bruises - Eat Our DustZoon - How Many More Times

    The A.M. - Episode August 3, 2026

    This week's AM starts with some uncharacteristically ambient Alanis Morissette, through ambient synths, Nordic instrumentals, and fuzz-club psychedelia, to nautical folk and Brian Eno's favourite Canadian album (per The Quietus). All to ease you into a holiday Monday here on your favourite campus and community radio station.Playlist: Alanis Morissette - Restore—Calling Generation XRose Keeler-Schaffeler - Two HeartsEmily A.

    The A.M. - Episode July 27, 2026

    Ringing out July with... well, not the most coherent AM episode you'll ever hear, but some of us are still recovering from a weekend under 30 degree skies at the Calgary Folk Music Festival. Hopefully still an enjoyable mix of psychedelic sounds, pastoral electronics, '80s depression ballads, and other sounds suited to sun-soaked Monday mornings. Miss you, Mike.Playlist: Andy Bell, Masal - The Morning of the TripIvan the Tolerable - Highest PavementJason Dungan, Johan Carøe - Routine IStrawberry Switchblade - Trees and Flowers - Extended MixMaya Ongaku - You are SilenceBrian Baggett - AdriftThe World Next Door - Only the Pink DinosaurTest Card - Telnet to TelexdgoHn - Bus To FairlopResavoir, Matt Gold - LuaMarco Benevento, featuring Dave Guy - SorginiIslands on Tape - Dust ConspiracyThe Avalanches, featuring Karen O - Blue ShadowsHair Control - Seeing in the DarkVictorella - La femme invisibleTokedashita Garasubako - Annmari FukasugiteTokedashita Garasubako - Kimi ha Dare nandaRick White, Julie Doiron - In the WayKronstad 23 - StratosfærenN NAO, featuring Helena Deland - FleuronThe Consonant C - DoomMeggo - the crashJobriath - I'm a Manboyhood - LonerCASTLEBEAT - This Takes TimeFuses - AnilineJeffrey Silverstein - Portland WorksAyal Senior - Egg Yolk SlimeJeffrey Alexander + The Heavy Lidders - From Loch Raven to Fells PointCindy Lee - Prayer of BaphometJared Mattson & Ruban Nielson - River RaftingEdena Gardens - Earth Blemish
