E2TG 5/19/2021 - The Art of Randomness - Ghost on the Roof Mix (Walnuts Remix)

Since before the beginning of E2TG, the random shuffle has been a thing I do. I like letting the phone or playlist pick the songs (after I have created said playlist).  I have also noted over time - that with randomness, one may discern what seem to be patterns.  For example, an artist or album coming up multiple times in a week - against the odds.  Or running into someone one night, and having their song come up the next morning (I know they think I did that on purpose). Or an artist coming up just before a big show...  

If I am honest, though, there are times when I really want a song or album to come up in the shuffle and it just doesn't.  It is frustrating but it is rare.  If I am going to trust in randomness, I have to do so absolutely - at least in this type of situation. 

The next segment of this week's Featured Friday Playlist is next (28-34):

28. "Flow" by Mojave Grey

First up, we have the new single from this California band (based between L.A. and Joshua Tree) led by Zander Bleck and featuring Michael Pozzi (who we have previously featured recording as Pozzi).  It is a unique form of desert rock. 

29. "Elevator" by Goodge

UK producer combining hip-hop and jazz. 

30. "Have a Good Time" by Ender Bender

New single from the L.A. artist currently based in Rome. 

31. "Secondhand" by Gasleben & Electric Friends

32. "So We Begin" by Pikefruit

33. "Fast Car" by Chartelli

Second single from the Vancouver based artist. 

34. "Bluebird, Hollywood... Domino" by The Gorstey Lea Street Choir

We end this segment with a nifty tune from this UK band who are preparing their next album. Great sound.
