Late post and I'm short on time... whew!
Today, we wrap up our recap of this week's Featured Friday Playlist. Please be sure to check out this week's playlist today - before a new playlist arrives around midnight Friday! Today, we finish up with songs 25-30:
25. "REDRUM" by 3eon Vibe; DESIRE
Leading the way for this segment of music, we have the only single and title track from the upcoming EP by this Melbourne duo who have something interesting and original going on. I dig it.
26. "Up Arrow (CSJ edit)" by Gold Hick
Gold Hick is 1/2 of the Norwich band Broads - who we have featured in the past. This is his solo debut - written and recorded in quarantine. James Ferguson named his project after the Guided By Voices song.
27. "Badminton" by Michael Landin
Next, we have some cool Nordic jazz via the debut solo album by guitarist Michael Landin from Denmark. He has recruited some great players, and this is a lovely record.
28. "Let's Slip Away" by Jessy Yasmeen
Next up, we have some dreamy indie folk-pop from this singer-songwriter with Dutch and South American roots. Cool stuff.
29. "Unconditional" by From Venus
From Venus is the new solo venture of UK based singer-songwriter Crista D'Arcy. Mixing lo-fi beats, synth-tinged folk and trip-hop. Really wonderful sound. A great addition to this week's Playlist.
30. "Boatman's Weather" by Pace
And we close out this week's playlist with a dark yet uplifting song from this London based alt-rock band. The song hearkens to a simpler time. A great way to set us adrift from another week's playlist.. or some other boating reference.
"County Line" by Lee Gallagher (from L.A. Yesterday)
From the recent album by the San Francisco-based singer-songwriter.
"Underwear" by The Magnetic Fields (from 69 Love Songs)
From the 1999 - sixth album by Magnetic Fields- 69 Loves Songs is just what the title suggests. I love this song.
"Every Little Thing" by Pussycat Doghouse (from Bananas)
From Bananas - I love this album, I love this band formed from the remains of Eight O'Five Jive after Lee and Andy moved to Baltimore.
"Give Up" by Trash Man (from Mix for a Movement)
From THIS compilation for a great cause. The compilation was spearheaded by Sad Baxter. Trash Man is members of Sad Baxter and Bill Eberle doing very short songs. Fun fact: the first time I saw Bill Eberle play live - the Sad Baxter folks were his backing band.
"Shuttle Dance Night" by The Electric Grandmother (from Relaunch)
From the recent album by our D.C. friends The Electric Grandmother - a concept album about space shuttles and the kidnapping of Ronald Reagan - and more.
"Shaman Food" by Luis Mojica (from How a Stranger is Made)
From the 2019 album by this member Rasputina.
"DRS" by The Vignatis (from Red, White & Blue - Gypsybilly Vol. 4)
And finally, from the recent album by the Franco-American hybrid band that combines a variety of genres into what they call Gyspybilly. I call it fantastic. We featured them on a Featured Friday Playlist a while back.
