oh, he's still on air?

Apr 18, 2021 10:00 AM – 12:00 PM

With xenfoyel

Starting with some luscious electronica/ambient into to k-alt pop inspired tracks, going full blast into hyperpop and club-y "oonts oonts" beats to get you off your feet before drifting off into some songs working with orchestral orchestration in the 21st century

oh, he's still on air?

good morning everyone, happy sunday
the_dude abides (your pledge) 10:03:42 AM
Sup nycto!
nyctophiliac (host) 10:04:01 AM
welcome to the show mr dude! glad to have ya
nyctophiliac (host) 10:06:39 AM
omg i just realized, in my show description it says "orchestral orchestration"--it's supposed to be "electronic orchestration"
nyctophiliac (host) 10:06:48 AM
i just can't proofread apparently
Chef Emeril "Michelin Accomplished" Lagasse 10:13:01 AM
YES MORE BJORK
nyctophiliac (host) 10:13:49 AM
she's my all time fav artist !! she's hard to fit in a set sometimes since her music is so unique :(
Chef Emeril "Michelin Accomplished" Lagasse 10:14:55 AM
Well I'm so happy to have tuned in when she was playing! I've barely heard her music though actually :O what's a good starting point for diving in?
nyctophiliac (host) 10:16:26 AM
her first 4 albums are all pretty accessible and a great place to start! Debut is full of jazz inspired tunes, Post is very theatrical and pop, Homogenic is PEAK electronic music, and Vespertine is a lush orchestral album
nyctophiliac (host) 10:16:56 AM
her later works are amazing in their own right (my favorite album is Vulnicura, her seventh) but I think those take more time to get acclimated to
Chef Emeril "Michelin Accomplished" Lagasse 10:28:35 AM
Thank you!! I'll definitely be going on some explorations
nyctophiliac (host) 10:31:14 AM
of course :) hope you'll find something you enjoy
the_dude abides (your pledge) 10:33:40 AM
Recently been checking out her first name sugarcubes , where do they fit in for you?
nyctophiliac (host) 10:34:54 AM
To be honest i haven't listened to much of the sugarcubes, but they're a very groovy group and her voice is still much appreciated
nyctophiliac (host) 10:36:13 AM
i should probably do a deep dive into that part of her discog this week
the_dude abides (your pledge) 10:36:32 AM
Right on,yeah seem more if I had a more formed opinion I'd share it lol, still new to me but I like them. Seem more straightforward and rock than her solo stuff
the_dude abides (your pledge) 10:36:44 AM
So it and put some favs on next week's show!
nyctophiliac (host) 10:37:31 AM
I will def consider it! I was thinking of doing some classical programming next week but things are always subject to change :P
connor 10:53:40 AM
great great great show
nyctophiliac (host) 10:54:12 AM
thank you thank you i try my best
nyctophiliac (host) 10:54:27 AM

Chef Emeril "Michelin Accomplished" Lagasse 10:55:07 AM

nyctophiliac (host) 10:55:35 AM
i agree, KKB has such a fun vibe

Chef Emeril "Michelin Accomplished" Lagasse 11:17:42 AM
OOOO I heard a song from this album recently on wprb and it also caught my ear, I guess I should listen to the album!
nyctophiliac (host) 11:18:23 AM
Ooh which DJ is also playing Weyes Blood? i must've missed their show
nyctophiliac (host) 11:18:41 AM
(and for the record, yes you definitely should!)
Chef Emeril "Michelin Accomplished" Lagasse 11:18:53 AM
I'm not sure, sorry! They played A Lots Gonna Change according to my notes haha
Chef Emeril "Michelin Accomplished" Lagasse 11:19:08 AM
AND they're from doylestown pa, not far from me!
nyctophiliac (host) 11:19:16 AM
no prob dw, and yess that one is really good too
nyctophiliac (host) 11:19:53 AM

Chef Emeril "Michelin Accomplished" Lagasse 11:21:50 AM
Those unce unce songs def were great btw
nyctophiliac (host) 11:22:08 AM

nyctophiliac (host) 11:53:58 AM
Joanna has quite literally gotten me through this semester
Chef Emeril "Michelin Accomplished" Lagasse 11:56:52 AM
Her debut album took me a few relistens to really get into and appreciate
Chef Emeril "Michelin Accomplished" Lagasse 11:57:14 AM
Also kate bush vibes now
nyctophiliac (host) 11:57:23 AM
Milk Eyed Mender is definitely her most inaccessible i think, that's fair
nyctophiliac (host) 11:57:39 AM
I cannot choose which of her albums is my favorite though, they're all so special
connor 11:58:13 AM
structurally its the most accessible, but her vocals in that era put some people off in a big way
nyctophiliac (host) 11:58:37 AM
yeah I would say the same
nyctophiliac (host) 11:58:49 AM
i love it all the same though
nyctophiliac (host) 11:59:08 AM
Swansea has been on REPEAT for me this week
nyctophiliac (host) 12:00:50 PM
love this last verse so much
Dan Ruccia 12:01:29 PM
Don't know this album nearly as well as the others for whatever reason. Her lyrics are always soooooo good!
nyctophiliac (host) 12:01:44 PM
her lyricism is unmatched!
Chef Emeril "Michelin Accomplished" Lagasse 12:01:48 PM
That was amazing
nyctophiliac (host) 12:02:03 PM
thank you all for tuning in, see y'all next week hopefully!
connor 12:02:15 PM
