๐ Back to back 1-4's for me this week! Today's show cycles from experimental ambient cuts with LA Timpa to mid 10's bedroom pop with Cyberbully Mom Club + Frankie Cosmos. We cast back to some older pre-millenia favourites too with Arab Strap, Peter Ivers, and The Masqueraders. Sink your teeth in, you never know what you might find. ๐

Dub flavours are covered with new music from Devon Rexi, Nyquist, and an old favourite from Mala. New music from indie-darlings MGMT andVampire Weekend also features. We also sneak a few Thursday 1-4 favourties via La Caution and Cheb i Sabbah to keep all happy.
