Quarantine the Past

Do you love new music but struggle to keep up? Do you want recommendations from people who know what they’re talking about but also understand how you feel? From the people behind independent music and film website No Ripcord, Quarantine the Past is the podcast for you. Every episode, No Ripcord contributors David Coleman, Juan Rodriguez, Joe Rivers, and Gabbie Nirenburg hand-pick new releases; some harking back to a bygone age and some introducing fresher sounds - perfect for the music aficionado who needs a fast-track for when modern life gets in the way. Oh, and that title? It’s the title of a Pavement compilation rather than an allusion to any kind of disease management. If you already knew that, stick around. Hosted on Acast.

    April 2024 New(ish) Music Round-Up: Lots of Heritage Indie-Rock and a Boring Taylor Swift Record

    If April seems like a while ago it’s because it is. It’s nearly July and we’re falling behind. But there was some great music and we’re committing to rounding it up. Dive in to see what we thought about Vampire Weekend, Pearl Jam, the Libertines and very possibly some artists under the age of 40. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

    March 2024 New Music Round-Up: Mannequin Pussy Perfects 90s Alt-Rock, Kacey Musgraves Embraces Jangle, and Bleachers Hit Rock Bottom

    In a big month for country-leaning records (Waxahatchee, Adrianne Lenker, Kacey Musgraves), Mannequin Pussy blow away the cobwebs with a genuine AOTY contender. Meanwhile Jack Antonoff stands out for entirely different reasons - his wretched Bleachers album is one of the biggest flops of the year. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

    Yes, Another Teen Movie (Soundtrack)!

    Do you remember the '90s, when teen movies featured 30 year old actors pretending to be children, gags about sex crimes, and subplots about romancing your stepbrother? Thankfully one thing has stood the test of time: the killer soundtracks. From Clueless to Cruel Intentions, American Pie to She’s All That, these OSTs were often as good as LPs from the era. On this episode, Gabbie briefly hijacks hosting duties and leads the gang in writing (and starring in?!) a brand new teen movie, inspired by all the old tropes, and complete with a perfect soundtrack of all new '90s-inspired tracks. Songs featured, in order, below... but you can check out a much longer playlist of our picks right here: https://shorturl.at/crSV7 Liquid Mike - Mouse TrapGentlemen Rogues - Involuntary SolitaryGladie - Born YesterdayCuffed Up - Mock DanceSnarls - MarblesFrancis of Delirium - Give It Back to MeOscar the Wild - She'll Be Right Hosted on Acast.

    What if Your Neighborhood Bar Played Something Newer Than Don McLean?

    On the first all-host Quarantine the Past episode of 2024, we dust off the typical, stale neighborhood bar jukebox with what we think will make great classics in another 20 or 30 years. As always, we feature only new, mostly small indie artists that we hope are new to you (but sound just close enough to your old favorites to feel familiar). Find the full playlist, including every track we play in the episode and many more, on Spotify: https://t.ly/UiUX5 Songs played, in order (and with permission): 2:38 - "Bad Day to Be a Beer," Private Function4:50 - "Hot Moms Go to Heaven," Backseat Vinyl8:14 - "Marriage," The Bug Club11:37 - "I'm the One You Want," Sob Stories15:04 - "Favourite Place," The Terrys19:44 - "Imitation of War," Itasca23:43 - "The Remortgage Anthem," CVC27:09 - "Performative," Subsonic Eye31:51 - "Up and Comer," SPRINTS Hosted on Acast.
