Listen: Dead Wax – Sep. 25, 2014

In this episode, I play eight new songs, and one less new song. All of them are really cool, and many of them veer toward the experimental. It's a fun and interesting hour of listening and reflection.

Playlist:

Simone White – "What The Devil Brings"
Geneviève Bellemare – "The Way"
GOAT – "Hide From The Sun"
Half Japanese – "Our Love"
Todd Terje – "Inspector Norse"
Dot Hacker – "Floating Up The Stairs"
milo – "peanut butter sandwiches"
Brad Mehldau and Mark Giuliana – "Gainsbourg"
Zella Day – "Seven Nation Army"

Listen: Dead Wax – Sep. 18, 2014

In this episode of Dead Wax, I play nine cool songs that I heard this week. I also play one song that I had never heard before, and give my initial reactions to it and to the semi-major pop culture event from which it sprang.

The playlist:

"How We Are" – Lia Ices
"Miracle" – Kimbra
"Don't Wanna Lose" – Ex Hex
"The Only One" – Los Angeles Police Department
"Volcano" – U2
"Desiree" – Sean Rowe
"Angel Of Small Death & The Codeine Scene" – Hozier
"Glass House" – Kaleo
"The Breeze" – Banditos
"Baroun Baroune" – Faravaz

Dead Wax Strikes Back!

Dear Audience,

After many long months of inactivity on this blog, and even many-er long months of being off the air, I write today bearing good news: Dead Wax Radio is returning!

That's right! This fall, Dead Wax will once again be broadcasting across the internet on KOXY Radio! The show will return to its post at 8:00 Pacific Time on Thursday evenings, where it will once again provide listeners with a glimpse at the latest and greatest developments from the wide world of music.

The first episode of the new incarnation of Dead Wax will be airing THIS WEEK! Yes indeed, this Thursday, September 11, at 8:00 p.m. PDT, dial your web browser in to KOXY to hear me make my triumphant return to the air while playing and discussing ten cool new songs. Don't miss out!

I'm very excited to be back on the air! This fall should be all kinds of fun, and I hope you'll join me to experience it!

See you soon,
Allan
