On this episode of the FFFoxy Podcast show, the last one for the year, we dug into plenty of new music that has arrived in recent months. We also pulled out a few older releases to play and a couple of titles from earlier in the year that we wanted to re-visit for one reason…
Here is the second of three year-end favorites lists that will be posted on our site during the month of December. This time around the focus is on tapes, and man did I listen to literally hundreds of ’em throughout the year. This is just a small sampling of some of the stuff that rose…
This is the first of three year-end favorites lists that I will be posting on our site over the next few weeks. Since there has been no shortage of terrific reissues coming out this year, it seemed appropriate to focus in on these separately from the other cassettes and albums that will be covered. I…
This episode of the FFFoxy Podcast runs the stylistic gamut maybe more noticeably than usual. Throughout the show you’ll hear everything from saccharine pop songs (Piano Movers, Jerry Paper) to blasted riff rock (Exhaustion, Shooting Guns) to text-based shenanigans (Yeast Culture, The Hafler Trio) and several points in between.

It’s mid-November and we’re already grumbling about the bitter cold weather around these parts. Thank goodness we had some essential reissues to discuss over the past few weeks to keep us distracted.

It has been a fun, yet busy, past couple of weeks here. We were fortunate to have Nathan McLaughlin drop by the studio and join us on episode #434. It’s always a pleasure to have him in town and to get to talk music, life, etc. The guy certainly knows a thing or two about…
There were loads of new releases to sift through for this episode of the FFFoxy Podcast, several of which are surely going to be in the mix when it comes to year-end list time (too soon??). In particular, there was lots of great bizarro cassettes to spin; we’ve been especially loving the latest sounds from…
Starting on Wednesday, October 29th, KMSU – the college/community radio station where Free Form Freakout is based out of – will be starting their annual Fall Listener Pledge Drive with the goal of raising $25,000. As with our previous pledge drive in the spring, the station is setting this goal in an effort to not…
For this week’s podcast show, which coincidentally marks our 4th year in existence, we’re thrilled to be able to offer you this special KYE Records feature produced by Nick Hamilton of Vittelli Recordings out of London. As you may recall, Vittelli was responsible for those terrific Matthew P. Hopkins and London Sound Survey albums that…
