In this episode we go into a late-night mood with some nocturnal psychedelic and private press records. For many of the artists featured in this episode the information is scarce and most of them are still flying under-the-radar, so we hope to shed some light on these great records and hopefully you'll find something new and interesting that you have not heard before.

We have put together an eclectic mix of unique artistic expressions in this show. The tracks doesn't follow a specific genre but all are from the parallel universe of privately pressed music. For the episode we've also been in contact with Garrett Schroeder who helped us to fill in some gaps regarding his debut album "Lack of Sleep". We end this episode with Thunder Tillman and the great track Condor Sunflower from their long-awaited new EP.

In this episode we introduce a new concept for the podcast and we call it the Mystery Jukebox. The idea is simple, we let a collector or listener send us a secret playlist, which we have no pre-knowledge about and let the selector take us on a journey to the unknown. After we have listened and discussed each of the track the artist identity will be revealed for us and you. For the first episode in this series Jens Unosson have selected 11 tracks for us. Jens is a long-time collector and psychedelic scholar from the deep forest of Northern Sweden. When he's not tending to his farm he runs an on-line webpage, beautifullies, where you can find weird and esoteric records for sale. As this is a secret playlist we will not disclose Jens´ selection by writing it out beforehand and ruin all the fun for you guys and girls. Hope you'll like it!

Here we return yet again to the concept of Cosmic American Music, as we didn't have the time to play you all of the tracks in part 1. In this second part, we mix lesser-known records with some true classics as well as revisiting a few artists that we have already listened to in pervious episodes. We also highlight two great new acts, James Matthew VII and Dalton Correction. James Matthew VII will have his debut LP "Cosmic Folk Ballads" released next year and we listen to his composition "Stoned When I Pray", while Dalton Correction put out their debut in 2017 on Possible Records, and from that one we play "Yarará".

We're thrilled to finally have our friend Anders Alexander with us on the show. Anders is a record collector and dealer from Southern Sweden (now living in Stockholm) who's been hunting records since the 80s. Nowadays he sells records under the name Vinylkatten at record fairs and in his own pop-up record store. For the show, he brought an eclectic mix of records, ranging from under-the-radar gems and dollar-bin alerts to psych grails, and we promise an episode filled with psychedelic saxophones, cocaine flutes (Anders favorite instrument), troglodyte rock and hypnotic vibes.

We've been doing this podcast for over five years now and recorded 70 episodes, including 23 interviews with other collectors and musicians. Over the years some have asked us about how we got into collecting records, so in this episode we're going to tell you about our personal musical journeys and how we got deeper into the psychedelic rabbit hole. The records in this episode represent a development in terms of taste or collecting and while my selection is all about the psych classics, Viktor throws in a wild bunch of songs.

Inspired by Numero Group's compilation Cosmic American Music we felt we wanted to do a take on that theme. However, as neither of us have so much country records in our collections this episode turned out to be a little bit more eclectic with songs inspired by American roots music in general, so it will be some country-tinged tracks but also blues and folk. As we had more tunes lined up than we could squeeze into this episode we will return with a part 2 of this theme. Featured in this episode is also two contemporary artists, Part-Time Lover and Evan Haywood, as we continue with our new segment of playing modern music. Part-Time Lover will release an EP in October on Blue Arrow Records in Cleveland and included here is one of the tracks, "Magic Child". Evan Haywood is just finishing up his second album "Perfumed Gardens" and we play "Ashes of Oblivion" from the LP.

Here we continue to explore some great psych 45s (press here for part 1). The focus in Part 1 was more on heavy psych and hard rock while in this epsiode we listen to some classic psych and folk-psych sounding singles. We also do a follow-up on Conception (which we included in Part 1) as we been in contact with more people involved in the band and we now have a more complete history of the group. In this episode we also introduce a new segment to the podcast where we highlight some newly released tracks and first out is the band Salt Lick with their heavy sounding Doctor (of Love).
