RECENT PODCAST EPISODE
Miles Michaud (Allah-Las)
From one end of the shores of some spiritually secluded sanctuary resides a melodic memory of a time that has long since passed. Where world-renowned National Geographic photographers carefully captured the elemental essence of the natural world, a melodic meditation was eventually born from its atmospheric ashes. LA-based psych pirates and students of the sonic sunset, Allah-Las, have been creatively conjuring their blissful brand of surf sounds and intimate instrumental breaks for nearly two decades.
RECENT REVIEW
The Harmonious Hitchhiker :: 80 Years of Neil Young
Iconically isolated in its dystopian dormancy for over four decades, Young’s 1976 “Hitchhiker” fits perfectly still between the unparalleled “Zuma” and “American Stars ‘N Bars” like some poetic puzzle piece that, when connected, unleashes a brilliant universe of American atmosphere and liberating lonerism like nothing else before it. As Young circles the sonic sun this week for his 80th birthday, what better way to celebrate than going off the beaten path with an adventurous archival release that many may not know, but everyone should know before the week is up.
