Music Interviews
The Story of Classical is your essential nine-part companion guide to classical music. In each of our commentaries, we unlock the mystery and beauty of every musical period—from the Middle Ages to the present day—by chronicling an encounter between vital figures in music history.

Music History
Vampire Weekend’s Ezra Koenig is one of indie’s most thoughtful artists, and on TIME CRISIS, he digs into the things that matter most in these divisive times—like classic rock and corporate food history. Thanks to the Crisis Crew (Jake Longstreth, @Seinfeld2000, and Nick Weidenfeld), every episode is its own journey—some are serious and some aren’t—but each one gets its very own soundtrack that spans from Dylan to Drake. You never know who might stop by, but what you can be sure of: No topic is too high- or lowbrow for Ezra’s hot take.

You’ll hear from Ebro Darden and other Apple Music personalities in a mix of new music, artist interviews, and conversations about the tracks and trends shaping the state of rap today.

What began as an independent radio show has blossomed into a worldwide community united in a borderless, genre-bending musical movement. It’s a testament to Soulection staying true to its roots in the age of digital music, from putting out independent releases with producers such as Ta-ku, Sango, Dpat, and Atu to being the first collective invited to play Coachella. Today, Soulection exists as an Apple Music show, an independent music label, a festival (Soulection Experience), and a world-touring concert and clothing line.
