ALBUM SHOW NOTES
GIFT is a Brooklyn, NY based 5-piece band that is a solid mix of pop, rock and psychedeic and they've taken a big swing for the fences on their 2nd album, Illuminator. This is a solid album and should garner them the next step up in the pantheon of modern artists that they well deserve. They spent some time putting it together and self-produced the album, and the hard work shows. I've played this album in my home a lot this past week, and I'm really liking it. I had already added 4 songs from this album to the station rotation as they came out as singles, and I added "It's All Too Fast" this week as well.
There are also new albums from Fontaines D.C. (Romance), Lo Moon (I Wish You Way More Than Luck), lovelytheband (lovelytheband), Jon Anderson with The Band Geeks (True), illuminati hotties (Power), and Magdalena Bay (Imaginal Disk) that are worth your attention, but GIFT's album stood out for me, so that's what I'm playing.
The Album Show plays on Thursdays at 9am and 9pm Pacific Standard Time.
Due to technical issues, last week's album by Louis Cole wasn't played on the Album Show. So we're going play it in the hour following the usual Album Show, at 10am and 10pm Pacific Standard Time. Here is last week's blub about the album:
Louis Cole is one of those guys in the music business that shows up just about everywhere as a guest or a producer. He has often showed up at concerts by Vulfpeck, Snarky Puppy, Cory Wong, and Jacob Collier just to sit in for a song as a vocalist, a drummer, a guitarist - just about anything.While he has a few of his own albums under his belt he's just as well know for his work with others. But he's now just released a new album called "nothing" in collaboration with Metropole Orkest, the Orchestra in The Netherlands that has guested with a wide variety of Jazz and Pop artists, including an album with Cory Wong just last month. This album is a potential modern day "Days of Future Past".
I am loving this new album and much of it defies description. I don't think it will have any huge hits, but it's the kind of thing you just put on the stereo in a recliner with the lights out and a glass of wine. So we're going to feature it this week on the album show.
RFC 2435
For those of you who stay away from Spotify the current week's additions will be played on Wednesdays. This is a change from prior programming: what we're going to do going forward is just play the music added this week only. Every other day will be the usual rotation, but we set aside Wednesdays for just the new additions for the week. This week that's 54 songs which we will play in the same order that they're in on the Spotify playlist of the same name up at the top of this post. So if you tune in at just about any time on Wednesday you will hear the whole playlist.
10 at 10
One last programming note: Every Saturday at 10pm and again on Sunday at 10am and 10pm we will feature our show "10 at 10", where we play 10 (and sometimes 11 or even 12!) songs from a year we pick at random. Again, all times are PST. Last week I played a group of songs from 2008, and this week we're going to back another decade.
As always, you can go to https://global.citrus3.com:2020/public/radiofreecalifornia to listen to the station, and there is an imbed below. And did you know the station is available as an app? It's only for Google Play (sorry iphone users - Apples terms and conditions were too restrictive for me) but you can listen on your phone at your convenience too.
I have already scheduled what will be my 7th microchip implant disguised as a COVID-19 Vaccine. It's almost as if I don't need to carry a cell phone anymore. Beep boop beep boop.
Cheap shots:
I've never been a fan of the New York Times because of their EAst Coast bias in their reporting, but holy shit what the fuck has happened to these guys?
How is it that Kim Dotcom has access to the internet, and is taken seriously by a U.S. Senator?
This is appalling, because Arlington has rules against partisanship on the grounds, but you have to consider that the family of at least one of these dead soldiers wanted this to happen.
Motherfucking Birthers are back, and weaker than ever.
And of course, the racists too.
Ooh, Randy Rainbow goes after the "Catless Child-Lady".
This is going to be a staple of trivia games in the near future.
He's going to miss the premiere of Season 2 of Rings of Power! This is an outrage! Fucking snowflakes.
Although the consequences were dire, it was a good joke.
After reading this my question is, can someone file a new FEC complaint? I should point out that of the 6 currently serving commissioners, 4 have terms that have expired - one of which was SEVENTEEN motherfucking years ago!
And because I love you, have my new single!
