Oh Messy Life – July 13, 2023 Show Notes

Track 1: Mari Kalkun – Maaimä (Mother Earth)

I found this Estonian folk musician via a Bandcamp promo email.

Track 2: Glasser – Drift

The second track released from Glasser’s upcoming album, crux.

Track 3: Ancient Plastix – Faultliner

Another Bandcamp promo email find.

Track 4: Frank Schultz – Throstle

Going back a third time to check out another track from the Stickfigure Records release, Blots.

Track 7: Zonetech – Feeble Ghosts

Going back from another track from the Passing Shadows EP from this legendary bay area duo.

Track 8: The Higsons – 1958

I stumbled across the Higsons a couple years ago while making a mix and when this release popped up in my Bandcamp promo emails this particular track grabbed me.

Track 9: Lola’s Dice – Sacudete

A second track from Les Disques Bongo Joe’s amazing compilation, Coco María presents Club Coco ¡AHORA! The Latin sound of now.

Track 10: Lucien Balconi – Braises

From the KZSU A-File

Track 11: Deerhoof – Sit Down, Let Me Tell You a Story.

One drawback with everyone releasing early promo tracks these days is that sometimes I forget to go back and listen to the full album when it comes out. I finally remembered to go back and check out the full album, Miracle Level.

Track 12: Guardian Singles – Com Trans

Found this one via WFMU’s Heavily Played Records List.

Track 13: Snooper – Fitness

Found this via a Spin Magazine list of new punk music, of all places.
