  1. Radiohead: Kid A with guest Jon D'Auria, Editor-in-Chief of Bass Magazine

    JAN 5

    Radiohead: Kid A with guest Jon D'Auria, Editor-in-Chief of Bass Magazine

    In this Season 5 premiere episode of The Music Rewind Podcast, we dive headfirst into one of the most daring left turns in modern music history: Radiohead’s Kid A. Released in 2000, the album shattered expectations, abandoned guitar-driven alt-rock, and redefined what a mainstream band could be. To help unpack its legacy, impact, and continued relevance, we’re joined by Jon D’Auria, Editor-in-Chief of Bass Magazine. Together, we explore how Kid A challenged listeners, reshaped the industry, and continues to influence artists decades later. From its icy electronic textures to its rejection of traditional rock tropes, this episode examines why Kid A remains one of the most important albums of the 21st century — and why it still sparks debate today. Season 5 — Episode 1 Album: Kid A Artist: Radiohead Year: 2000 Pick up the album here:  https://ebay.com/inf/albumarchives/collections/69225742345?mkcid=1&mkrid=711-53200-19255-0&siteid=0&campid=5339133224&toolid=80010&mkevt=1  Guest: Jon D’Auria Jon D’Auria is the Editor-in-Chief of Bass Magazine and a respected voice in music journalism. With years of experience covering artists, albums, and the evolving role of bass in modern music, Jon brings deep industry insight and historical context to the conversation. His perspective helps illuminate not only how Kid A was received at the time, but why it continues to resonate with musicians and fans alike.
