Today’s mix opens with an upbeat track: Phoenix’s first single, the instrumental “Heatwave,” which we discovered via Derrick Gee’s Lot Radio set from last April. (We slowed the track down a bit.) Then there are atmospheric tracks by Saapato (in collaboration with James Bernard, marine eyes, and Patricia Wolf), the Brendan Eder Ensemble, Kali Malone, and DOVS. We excerpt three tracks from the new Strategy record, A Cooler World, and two tracks from the newly reissued Hiroshi Yoshimura record, Flora. Then we play interesting instrumentals by Macie Stewart (whose new album is available on Bandcamp), Gunn-Truscinski Duo, and M. Geddes Gengras. There’s a newly unearthed solo piano performance of “Ave Maria” by Emahoy Tsege Mariam Gebru. We wrap with a classic performance of “Misty” by Don Byas, a new single by Julian Davis Reid, and an energetic collaboration between Natural Information Society and Bitchin Bajas. We hope you enjoy.
