Welcome to Off the Beaten Clef! This week, we are doing a playlist that is near and dear to our hearts- the Night Drive Playlist. This is a playlist where we can get a little bit slower, a little more introspective, and have head cannons that last a whole gas tank. We appreciate everyone that contributed to this playlist, and if you want to go listen along on spotify, click the link below!

Welcome to Off the Beaten Clef! Over the last few weeks we have had some of our friends on to discuss an album of their choosing. In continuing that theme we had on our spiritual third member, Ben, who chose Two Vines by Empire of the Sun! It's a diverse album that really showcases the variety that there is in electronic music. As a bonus, we cover the four tracks on the deluxe version as well! A special thank you to Ben for choosing such a great album and rounding out our little run of album reviews from friends.

Next week, we will be covering The Night Drive Playlist.

Welcome to Off the Beaten Clef! Over the next few weeks we are going to have some of our friends on to discuss an album of their choosing. And in continuing that theme we had on our friend Louie, who chose the album Addicted by Devin Townsend! It’s a high energy album that shows the diversity and talents of the prolific artist that is Devin Townsend. A special thank you to Louie for choosing such a fun album, and keeping the hot streak alive with our friends showing us cool music.

To keep the good times rolling, we will be discussing Two Vines by Empire of the Sun with Ben next week!

Welcome to Off the Beaten Clef! Over the next few weeks we are going to have some of our friends on to discuss an album of their choosing. With that being said, the first friend we have on is Mason Miller, who chose the album Daytona by Pusha T! After discussing the album, we also discuss the “Duppy Freestyle” rebuttal from Drake, and Pusha T's response to Drake in “The Story of Adidon.” It's a highly spirited debate with some classic hip hop beef that we can't wait for you guys to hear! A special thank you to Mason for choosing such a fun album and it made for a really interesting episode.

Welcome to Off the Beaten Clef! We are officially at Episode 99, which means that Dil felt it was time to bare his soul with an album he has a strong personal connection with: Forget and Not Slow Down by Relient K. It is a diverse and interesting album that has some really strong over arching themes. What are your thoughts on Relient K? Had you heard Relient K before this week like Dil, or are they a new band to you like Kev? Do you have an a breakup album that has stuck with you? Let us know on social media!

As we prepare for next week's 100th episode, be on the look out on our social media for a special announcement for a limited run of merch! The link will be added to our LinkTree and posted to IG/Twitter.

It is officially autumn. Leaves are falling, the temperature is dropping, and we all are looking to gather around a fire. Whether you are looking to sit around a fire and contemplate life by yourself, or chug fireball with your friends- OTBC has the playlist for you. Kev and Dil constructed five songs each that they feel create a perfect mood playlist for a bonfire. They also had some help from the audience, creating an 18 song playlist that rivals a Spotify curated playlist. Thanks to all that contributed! Now gather around the bonfire for a good old time.
