I spoke with Southern California Latin trans avant-folk/post-punk artist Cime about her upcoming album 'Laurels of the End of History,' which is out on streaming on August 18th. It's her follow-up to last year's 'The Independence of Central American Remains an Ongoing Experiment,' which we spoke about last spring. 'Laurels' builds on the freak-folk and nueva canción latinoamericana roots established in her debut while adding elements of noise rock and post-hardcore.

Kicking off Season 4 of I Hate Music strong by interviewing my friend Morgan for the fourth time - this time about her project aa & tyr! Earlier this year, she released 'Echo Sun All Bliss,' a maximalist, sprawling psychedelic/glitch pop/post rock/who knows what else project telling the stories of two futuristic archivists searching for identity in a world dominated by information (I'm not doing the narrative justice, go listen to the album). Tune in to hear us talk about “chain-smoking albums,” the significance of the last word in Beowulf, and why she retired the space cadet moniker.

Echo Sun All Bliss is out now on all streaming services and available for purchase on Bandcamp.

I spoke with DIY recording artist Cime about their upcoming album "The Independence of Central America Remains an Unfinished Experiment." We discussed the Sandinistas, Guillermo Anderson, Francisco Morazan, ocarinas, and much more!

I spoke with Williamsburg/Richmond-based singer/songwriter David Lefkowitz live on air! We discussed last weekend's WCWM Fest, David's roots as a songwriter and live performer, the art of (accidentally) blowing up on TikTok, and HORSEBOYS.

kø and i talk about internet collaboration, the importance (or lack of it) of genre labels like 'hyperpop', and what live performance means to them. also we introduce a speed round for the very first time!!

technical difficulties (or, me not paying attention) caused the music to keep playing at the beginning of the interview. whoops. maybe it adds something idk

Charlie Hall, drummer of the Grammy-winning band The War on Drugs joins me to talk about William & Mary memories from the 90s, favorite cities to visit on tour, and a lot more.

I interviewed my friend Skyler about everything from favorite live performances to TikTok fame and the delicate balance between being a student and a 'content creator,' whatever that is. Be sure to check out her EP 'The Half of It' on streaming services everywhere!

hazel returns to i hate music for the third time for a discussion about our collaborative EP "counting your steps" -- out now on all streaming platforms. we go through the tracklist one song at a time and discuss influences, creative process, lyrics, and more!

yves from souhaiter and i talked about their debut single and its upcoming followup (in a grotesque form, out 6/28), collaborating with morgan from space cadet, how their stint as a music reviewer affects their music, the future of souhaiter, and much more!

i interviewed space cadet about her new album "there aren't any more stars," which is out now on all streaming services!! we discussed the importance of philosophy in her art, the reason why space cadet has to be phased out, and her very ambitious artistic plans.
