It’s been a rather interesting, slightly intense, time around these parts since the last show with, of course, the sad passing of a Minnesota music legend in Prince this week, and then KMSU being a fairly active place with its annual Spring Pledge Drive going on. On top of that, I have also been working on, and recently submitted in fact, my contribution for a new Free Form Freakout review column for the upcoming third issue of the great Dynamite Hemorrhage zine, which is available now for pre-order. I’ll definitely be talking more about that in the coming weeks. I’ve also been busy plotting some forthcoming podcast and label-related activities when not slugging it out at the daily grind. So, it was kind of nice to settle in and decompress a bit at the studio and put together this wide-ranging batch of fringe sounds for you. There’s lots of great new stuff this time around from such artists as Heimat, Steve Palmer & Matt Beachey, Jackie McDowell, Foodman, Christian Mirande and more, not to mention some notable reissues from Lifetones and Cluster. I also had to slip in a few recent dollar bin finds from Het and Ilham Mimaroglu; the discovery of these titles and several more made for a worthwhile Record Store Day experience last weekend. I hope you enjoy this new episode, though. Feel free to get in touch if you have any questions or comments. Thanks for looking and listening.
