    Random Old Records Podcast #95

    Hey folks, Random Old Records Podcast is still here after thirteen years. Still using other people's words to tell my own story. Still listening to all of the music to find the gems. Still wearing a mask, still not leaving my house. I must be doing something right, because EPISODE #95 is one of the best things I've ever done! This time around, you'll hear lots of acoustic guitars and big harmonies. You'll hear silly lyrics and big dramatic flourishes. You'll hear huge beats and sing-song melodies and equal measures of angst and peace. You'll hear new tracks from Marina Allen, Andrew Gabbard, Drab City, and Aaron Frazer, plus classics by Happy and Artie Traum, Kak, Best Coast, and Gillian Welch, along with tons more great stuff. You'll enjoy it all, I'm sure of it! Don't forget to SUBSCRIBE to Random Old Records via Apple Podcasts or RSS. If you like the show, please rate it and write a review!

    Random Old Records Podcast #90

    Right under the wire, here's one more podcast for this blessed and cursed year of 2020. EPISODE #90 of Random Old Records is mostly new jams this time, with a few old favorites sprinkled in here and there. It goes all over the place! If you're into snapping electronic percussion, unexpected sax solos, uninhibited crooning, pronounced accents, and way too many power chords, this is the episode for you! I am a huge fan of the raw and jubilant electronic jams made by Los Angeles label 100% Silk, so this set kicks off with a track from label mainstays LA Vampires. You'll then hear swaggering fire from US Girls and Special Interest, poppy-punk from The Beths, Brick Head, and Dumspell, psychedelic classics from Margo Guryan and The Pretty Things, wistful modern pop from Marie Davidson and En Attendant Ana, plus so much more.

    Random Old Records Podcast #89

    Hey folks! It's that time of year again. EPISODE #89 of Random Old Records is the annual 5/10/15/20 edition, featuring classic tracks from the years 2000, 2005, 2010, and 2015.

Going back 20 years to 2000, you'll hear post-hardcore rippers from At The Drive-In and The Anniversary, then 2005 brings pop bliss from Epoxies and Nada Surf. 2010 was the year of garage rock like Dum Dum Girls and Best Coast, and 2015 closes things out with the nervy post-punk of Courtney Barnett and Bully.

    Random Old Records Podcast #88

    Like a lot of people, I haven't left my house much for the last seven months. I've spent a lot of time with headphones on, trying to find the dreamiest music possible to escape into and pass the time. EPISODE #88 is crammed full of distorted guitars, piercing synths, vocal histrionics, and meditations on lives both small and large. In this hour, you will hear classics from Lone Justice, The Soup Dragons, and Beverly, brand new jams from White Poppy, Maria Minerva, and The Lemon Twigs, plus a whole lot more. It jumps from country-rock to soul to garage pop to deep dance beats to progressive peacoat rock to trance-folk to throwback Britpop to real-deal Britpop. It's best experienced after spinning around for a few seconds and collapsing on the floor. Enjoy! Don't forget to SUBSCRIBE to Random Old Records via Apple Podcasts or RSS.
