Playdate

Listening to this podcasts gives me the biggest urge to start my own and talk about anything and everything, I can’t believe it’s as easy as recoding with someone and uploading it so people can hear, slow magic has given me so much inspiration through music and art!

This has become my new fav podcast as it is more like hanging out casually with friends, comfortable, quirky, not scripted, and amusing conversations about all sorts of subject matters. Another major bonus is being exposed to new and interesting music that Slow Magic and Dream Angel wish to share with the community, including interviews with the artist behind the creations. I’m a happy new listener and suggest you give it a spin across the posted casts. I’ve already found several artists that I’ve added to my turntable playlist, who I would not have known about otherwise. Glad to know that there is such a rare outlet for independent music and the format delivered.

I love the casual and accessible style of this podcast. Their generous storytelling is actually soothing and very personal. It’s also great that they are curious and supportive of emerging and underground music. I appreciate the music community building they are doing, especially during this 2020 lockdown.

A lot of new artists today are at the mercy of the algorithm, which lords over our daily lives and heavily influences what people are listening to. I even learned from this podcast that Spotify makes formulaic fake bands, which blew my mind. So, part of the mission of Playdate is to find music the old fashioned way, and it is so refreshing! Slow Magic and Dream Angel are courteous, kind hosts restoring some of the humanity to the music industry through a very cute podcast that highlights rad emerging artists.
