    The A.M. - Episode October 12, 2026

    A not-at-all Thanksgiving-themed episode on this holiday Monday. Instead, you get apocalyptic Axelrod, "doomed" Andy Boay, city pop from a 1980 Marvel vampire anime, music for wildflowers and weather systems, and other eclectic sounds to start your week on solid footing. Hope you enjoy it.Playlist: Plains Apparition - MigrationAndy Bell, Masal - Soap and WaterKodama こだま - Two For JoyPyramid Eyes - SnowflakeBICEP - LemonderWilfred Kozub - Firefly LagoonDave Angel - GoddessJeremiah Chiu - DoublesOdd Nosdam - DeepsimpleSanctums - CiceroBuildings and Food - Bus StopEucalyptus - Orb Palaceastral RIDDIMS - Dogon SpaceforcePlay Time - Open the Door, JoeyBrainstory - The WatchersDavid Axelrod - The Warnings Part 3David Axelrod - The Signs Part 4Various Artists, Light in the Attic, featuring Seiji Yokoyama - Quincy Harker no ThemeSocool - OriginsEleven76 - Someone's Always ThereBadge Époque Ensemble - A Cloud I DreamtAndy Boay - Why Now?Peel Dream Magazine - Blind FaithElephant Stone - Here Comes the Rising SunKali Horse - Cheap HighGhostkeeper - People of the PinesGnoomes - CrangonyxM83 - Losing GroundColliding Canyons - The Remover of ObstaclesSean Wolcott - Whispers in the BambooMisha Panfilov - Away We Drove

    The A.M. - Episode October 5, 2026

    Of note: An unexpected early episode farewell to the great Canadian label Telephone Explosion; a throwback to the band that (supposedly) underpins The A.M.'s whole mood; autumnal shoegaze and jangle pop; and other mellow sounds to indulge in on an October morning. Hope you enjoy it.Playlist: Steve Reich - Music for 18 Musicians: Section IAllison de Groot, Rich Ruth - New InterventionJohn Beltran - ÉireJairus Sharif - MawuJoseph Shabason - The FellowshipHainbach - Inward StarTeen Daze - Want - Dream MixZachary Gray - NightlightsEmily A.
