    An American's Take on French Rap

    Bet you didn't see this coming! We have been fans of French rap for years, and we're so excited to share some of our thoughts on this genre! French rap is characterized by atmospheric swells, crisp trap beats, melodic hooks, and the ever-present 'hype crew' in the background. Hip hop was exported to France from America back in the late 1980's, and France has since become Europe's leading producer of high-quality rap/trap music. Needless to say, it's far surpassed American rap in terms of quality, musicality, and ingenuity.  In this episode, we bring back Isaiah, our in-house French speaker, to help with pronunciation and offer some opinions of his own. The artists covered in this episode are PNL, RK, and Stromae--however, this barely scratches the surface of all the good music out there! We've created a French Rap playlist on Spotify to give credit to all the other artists we're fans of--check it out at the link below! Today's Daily Shuffle(s) are Bene by PNL, Zone by RK, & C'est pas des LOL by Jul. Which one is your favorite??

    We're Just Dancing with Sylvan Esso

    We're back for Season 2 with more subjective opinions, nonsensical back stories and *most importantly* fantastic music to cover! It seemed fitting to kick off this season with our go-to artist for catchy dance music, feminist power, and eccentric bass lines. In this episode Jules and I cover why we love Sylvan Esso, all the new music that dropped while we were on hiatus, and some new releases we are looking forward to! This episode includes: Hannah's questionable history of Durham, NC The one that got away (Dark Days, we're looking at you) Amelia and Nick's big secret The best way to listen to HSKT Jules performing telekinesis on Hannah Today's Daily Shuffle is HSKT by Sylvan Esso. Let us know your thoughts on this episode at applaudablepod@gmail.com or on Instagram @applaudablepod. And if you like what you're hearing, please leave us a review on Apple podcasts!

    Season 1 Finale!

We can't believe it either, but we've decided to take a *very brief* hiatus in the new year to get our act together and interview some great guests for Season 2! During this very short episode, Jules and I discuss the best album releases of 2020, and the releases we can't wait for in 2021!  If you have someone in mind that you'd like to see or hear about on a future episode, please let us know!

    A Quiet Chat with Dmitry Evgrafov

    This episode is one for the books, folks! Hannah sat down with Dmitry Evgrafov--world-famous neo-classical composer and cofounder of the Endel app--to discuss music, robots, the future of neoclassical music, and everything in between! Dmitry was kind enough to allow us an inside peek into his musical influences, how the music for Endel is created, his thoughts on AI-generated music, and the one performance he will never forget.  Check out his latest album, Surrender, anywhere you listen to music. Definitely give it a listen--our favorite songs are "Sparkle" and "A Rural Song." You can download the Endel app here. I (Hannah) can't recommend this app highly enough! I downloaded it last month and I have been using it every single day to help me focus during work and improve my sleep.  Dmitry's pick for the Daily Shuffle is "Her Revolution" by Burial, Four Tet, and Thom Yorke. Go give it a listen! If you want more of us, pop over to Instagram to get the Daily Shuffle delivered directly to your feed! You can find us @applaudablepod. And please let us know who you'd like to see on the pod next by sending us an email at applaudablepod@gmail.com, or sending us a message on IG.

    We Have Feelings about Foals

    No, we're not talking about baby horses (although those are cool too). The band Foals makes some of the BEST alternative/indie rock out there, and as always, we have opinions about it! In this episode we cover: Wolverinos Yannis vs Alex Turner Fetus Foals Our favorite Foals songs and albums Some really strange and random facts about the band The one Foals song everyone should play at their wedding Today's Daily Shuffle is Neptune (by Foals) or Milk and Black Spiders (also by Foals). We've got two because Jules and Hannah couldn't agree on just one (and also, one Foals song isn't enough).  Follow us on Instagram and Twitter @applaudablepod!
