New weekend, new releases to celebrate, and none more anticipated than the new LP from DIIV (pictured above, photo credit Louie Kovatch). It’s a mood, it’s a construct, it’s a coping process in action. For background, see our Marky Anderson’s review for Static Sounds Club blog here. And while it is a landmark release that will inspire conversation and comparison for the rest of the year, it’s certainly impossible to ignore as a musical work. More headliners? We’ve got ’em. Softcult, Lozenge, sunshy, Prune 99, worser fill out the front line. Backing them up, so much more for your consideration: Hazelene, Yndling, Belong, The Haunted Youth, straygaze, OMIDARI, Mi.el, Fish in the Elevator, Emerald Comets and more. It’s a packed holiday weekend (Stateside, at least), and we’re packed with more music than weekend, as usual.
And all that’s in addition to last weekend’s fresh sonic injections, including Draag, Pure Hex, ultranøia, Snowcuffs, A Shoreline Dream, Air Formation, moon cowboy, witherbride, Parallel, SUNWISE, With Glee, Eosine, Superdrone, Luma Fade, Shhadows & Small Planets, Kitten Paws, lucidbloom, Kallai, headachee, Kim Frasier, Honeywave, Babyteeth, Hause Plants, Dropping Honey, cool AF, Dollar Dreams, bobsled team, clowder, Staircase Paradox, Nature Trip, swan•seas and more. We’ll cram in all we can.
New Tracks Weekend is begun at 8 pm Eastern, 5 pm Pacific, and continues through Sunday at midnight Eastern, 9 Pacific. It’s the first weekend we’ll spin some of these tracks, and may be the last weekend for some others. Remember, you can listen listen via the station playlist page at DKFM, on Live365, and on TuneIn Radio for iPhone/Android/Windows. Limited beta: we’re now up on Mixcloud Live, website AND app, if that’s a thing you’d dig. Plus we have our branded apps for Apple’s iOS and Android: listeners can vote on all the new tracks, helping us determine what graduates to permanent rotation. Your voice counts! We’re live-scrobbling once again via last.fm. Now you’ll know what you heard, or catch up on what you missed. Keep up with our new Facebook group for some real-time discussions of what you’ve heard, and sound off!
And, as always, thanks for listening, and thank you for your support!
