    The A.M. - Podcast March 30, 2026

    Does the late-March snow have you down? You're not alone. But at least we have music—mellower tracks for a little well-earned wallowing, and sunnier sounds to melt away some of the (hopefully not perma)frost. Featuring a couple of all-time favourite tracks, from Torngat and from the Chemical Brothers, plus a whole host of new music spanning ambient, jangle-pop, doom-folk, and beyond. Hope you enjoy 'em.Playlist: Haiku Salut, Meg Morley - Needle DropJamison Isaak - Fern's ForestOowets - SekaiDavid Sylvain - Words With the Shaman - Part 3 (Awakening (Songs from the Treetops))Kronstad 23 - Menighetenworriedaboutsatan - Piece By Miserable PieceGlissandro 70 - Pad TidePan-American - Entrance to AfterlifeBill Orcutt, Mabe Fratti - El inicio es cuestion de suerteAshi Shonen - Nous ÉcoutonsHALFBY - Between Them - tiger bae RemixIvor Cutler - There's a Hole in My HeadEiyn Sof - I Eat the SkyAmbre Ciel - SometimesOra Cogan - OutgrowingPJ Harvey - White ChalkTorngat - Minute by MinuteTorngat - Bordeaux BoredomJackson\Wilson Duo - Water SourceKlint - Intermezzo - Exelsior -Shakey Graves - I Once Was an OceanAstral Swans - What Are You Gonna Do With Yourself?Pye Corner Audio, featuring Andy Bell - CycleThe Chemical Brothers, featuring The Flaming Lips - The Golden PathSunglaciers - Ballad for EddyYea-Ming and the Rumours - Paper DollBeing Dead - GoodnightTara Clerkin Trio - Somewhere GoodIndex For Working Musik - Going to Heaven on the End of a String - Papal VersionBibi Club - George SandThe Leaf Library - Sun In My RoomCarl Didur - The Great Uniter (Maybe Next Time)The Besnard Lakes - Chemin de la Baie - Ghost Mix

    As March marches on, The AM is still here to help you find your bearings in a world that won't stop spinning. This week we're throwing back to Cornelius' 2001 album Point, listening to new releases ranging from Bill Callahan's introspective folk to Hanakiv's atmospheric piano, Shabaka's spiritual jazz, and Damaged Bug's damaged psych, and generally aiming to make your Monday morning more bearable. Hope you enjoy it.Playlist: Five Times the Stars, featuring Sun Rain - fabricNavet Confit - 6 8Masahiro Takahashi, featuring Dorothea Paas - Sky, Ocean, and CreaturesMammo - Very NearBurdy - Oolong TimeGreen-House - Dragline SilkResavoir - LeavesShabaka - Step LightlyTristan Arp - Forking Paths747 - Lost LagoonFeathers - Old Black Hat with a Dandelion FlowerBill Callahan - Stepping Out For AirLuka Kuplowsky - Plant LifeLammping - No ConsolationCornelius - Tone Twilight ZoneCornelius - Bird Watching at Inner ForestThe Raoul Santodomingo Experience - Penelope CruiseshipDamaged Bug - Over-ExposedSleepkit - Fresh FaceBaby Cool - EverythingKnife Pleats - Distant ShipsHanakiv - LõpulaulAndrew Wasylyk, featuring Saya from Tenniscoats - Hachi No SuCarla dal Forno - Going OutMarco Benevento, featuring Marianne Mirage - TurandotFabiano do Nascimento, Vittor Santos Orchestra - Floresta Dos SonhosKoushik - Be WithThe Experimental Pop Band - Narcotic DaysPanurge - Ginny and the Flower ManAzeda Booth - This Town is FixedDiscovery Zone, John Moods - I Want YouWorld Standard - Human Circle of Memory

    The A.M. - Episode March 16, 2026

    You've survived Friday the 13th and the Ides of March, and your reward is... another Monday morning. Fortunately, the AM is here to fill these early morning hours with good vibrations and offbeat easy listening. This week's throwback is to AM patron saints Stereolab, and the 30th anniversary of their Emperor Tomato Ketchup. That classic is surrounded by eclectic sounds, from synth-enhanced Ethio-jazz to ghostly shoegaze to new-age Kosmische. All with the express aim of starting your week on stable ground.

    The A.M. - Episode March 9, 2026

    International Women's Day was yesterday, but it hardly seems fair that it only got 23 hours. So here's three more: another episode of All Femme AM, with 35 songs from women in music. Mostly recent, some less so, all just a glimpse of artistic catalogues well worth digging into. Enjoy the show (and apologies for the excessive grogginess, the Monday after daylight savings is, without fail, a struggle).Playlist: Violeta Vicci, Bruno Bavota - To the StarsViviane Audet - MariaMary Ocher - Approaching SingularityGwenifer Raymond - Bonfire of the BillionairesKara-Lis Coverdale - Flickers in the Air of NightHannah Peel - EcovocativeBuildings and Food - Clear Skies (Mountain)Haiku Salut - I Dreamed I Was Awake for a Very Long TimeDisiniblud - DisinibludWish Lash - Fast BoyMoon Apple - Pillar I - Mantra Force MajeureCerys Hafana - AngelCastle If - Theme de BetzGarden Gate - A Dream Within a DreamEla Orleans - The SeasonChris Derksen - aabaakwadRachel Kitchlew, featuring Dave Bardon, SHOLTO - Opium LoungeBrandee Younger - New PinnacleElisa Thorn - My MoonDeradoorian - Any Other WorldMagic Fig - Sensation SeekerLaura Cahen - FuséesParisian Orgy - Jazz Song For ShrimpMomoko Gill - No OthersMen I Trust - BurrowMarine Girls - Such a ThingAutomatic - Black BoxVictrix - A New ThingBon Enfant - MinimumNo Joy - BitsRozi Plain, Melin Melyn - Fantastic Food (Re-Milled)Various Artists, featuring Beth Gibbons - Sunday MorningSamara Lubelski - Keeper of BeautyEmptiness - EmptinessMess Esque - No Snow

    A globe-trotting episode of The AM, with artists from Brazil, Lebanon, Germany, Mali, pre-revolution Iran and the Iranian diaspora, and unsurprising detours to the UK and Australia.
