Hey everyone hope you're all doing well! Slightly different show tonight lined up
TAndy 11:06:39 PM
Already loving the show, DJ Jagannath. I love this song
DJ Jagannath (host) 11:07:50 PM
Gotta be Slint at their best, the ending is so good
Fried Monkey Eggs (Monkey Jelly) 11:07:50 PM
Yay, Slint!
Fried Monkey Eggs (Monkey Jelly) 11:08:00 PM
Totally different vibe tonight.
Fried Monkey Eggs (Monkey Jelly) 11:08:26 PM
💯💯💯
DJ Jagannath (host) 11:08:39 PM
For sure, this is my depressive song lineup lol
Fried Monkey Eggs (Monkey Jelly) 11:09:34 PM
"I'm only happy when it rains." 😁
Ossy 11:11:56 PM
Totally
Ossy 11:15:35 PM
This so relatable
michael gudgeon 11:16:08 PM
yeeee jaga!
michael gudgeon 11:16:29 PM
excited for some sad stuff!
TAndy 11:16:43 PM
I love me a good sad times playlist. Makes me thankful for the happy times, and helps me cope with the bad times. Not sure what kind of times I'm having now, but either way it's a good time here!
Fried Monkey Eggs (Monkey Jelly) 11:16:49 PM
Cool theme tonight!
DJ Jagannath (host) 11:17:51 PM
Haha this was inspired by my experience staying on campus for the summer
Fried Monkey Eggs (Monkey Jelly) 11:18:02 PM
Spinitron chat = good times!
TAndy 11:19:06 PM
summer school playlist 💀 I feel that
Fried Monkey Eggs (Monkey Jelly) 11:21:43 PM
😎
Ossy 11:22:02 PM
Oh yeah, especially I get so much sad days most of the time:D
Fried Monkey Eggs (Monkey Jelly) 11:24:52 PM
Ditto!
Ernie Weller 11:37:39 PM
any thoughts on the cover of "postcards" by Florence & the Machine
DJ Jagannath (host) 11:38:59 PM
I actually don't think I've heard it, is it any good?
Ernie Weller 11:40:10 PM
i love a good cover, but i'm on the fence...
DJ Jagannath (host) 11:43:57 PM
Gotcha, I'll check it out
TAndy 11:47:33 PM
Oh man, this song. 3
DJ Jagannath (host) 11:50:33 PM
Whole album is peak slowcore (however stupid that genre name is)
TAndy 11:54:13 PM
May I send some sad-time recs in the chat? This playlist is gold rn.
Ernie Weller 11:54:39 PM
wow.......
DJ Jagannath (host) 11:54:54 PM
Always welcome TAndy
Ernie Weller 11:55:52 PM
Oh man, this song........
TAndy 11:56:20 PM
Adding this to my playlist too
DJ Jagannath (host) 11:56:44 PM
Purple Mountains is great, same guy behind Silver Jews
DJ Jagannath (host) 11:57:46 PM
I prefer this album over the Silver Jews stuff, Berman committed suicide a month before it released which was tragic
Ernie Weller 11:57:58 PM
"depressive song line up" - he said
TAndy 11:59:46 PM
The Curious Case of Finding Someone Who Understands by Summer 2000; I'm Transmitting Tonight by Tim Hecker; The Sound Of Someone You Love Who's Going Away And It Doesn't Matter by Penguin Cafe Orchestra
DJ Jagannath (host) 12:00:59 AM
Will definitely listen to them
TAndy 12:01:10 AM
You, Me And The End Of Everything by Ben Frost; Would Anyone Die For Me? by Death Kneel.
DJ Jagannath (host) 12:01:26 AM
Unfortunately WPRB doesn't seem to have the screamo classics or I would have definitely played Indian Summer or Saetia
TAndy 12:01:27 AM
RED HOUSE PAINTERS <33333
TAndy 12:02:20 AM
Thanks again for this show tonight <3
DJ Jagannath (host) 12:03:13 AM
Anytime! This is my own cry for help as they say lol
TAndy 12:05:02 AM
The Loneliest Summer EP by Porch Kiss is a must-listen too. I highly recommend it :)
TAndy 12:06:17 AM
Perhaps a bit fitting these days...
Fried Monkey Eggs (Monkey Jelly) 12:06:32 AM
Thanks for the show—the change of pace. Thank goodness I always remember to take my antidepressant once a day every day. LOL. 😂 But seriously.
TAndy 12:10:47 AM
Loving this one <3
DJ Jagannath (host) 12:11:47 AM
Those screeching strings are so good
Fried Monkey Eggs (Monkey Jelly) 12:12:44 AM
I love(d) Low. The ultimate sad slow core stuff. Alan's music is very fitting. He suffers from major depression most of his life.
TAndy 12:13:15 AM
Low <3 <3 <3 <3
DJ Jagannath (host) 12:13:24 AM
I actually saw Alan open for GYBE last year, super cool
Ossy 12:13:50 AM
Resonates with my sad weeks
TAndy 12:15:03 AM
I've been going undiagnosed, myself. Given the state of the country and how the people in charge seem to feel about people like us, I don't think I'd be comfortable having that on my medical records for the time being.
Ernie Weller 12:15:27 AM
was just about to ask if you could play 'When I Go Deaf" (Low)
Fried Monkey Eggs (Monkey Jelly) 12:15:41 AM
I got to see Low live when they were promoting their Trust album.
TAndy 12:15:57 AM
I wish I got to see Low.
DJ Jagannath (host) 12:16:39 AM
Ernie I don't think we have that album in the library sadly
Ernie Weller 12:16:53 AM
np
Ernie Weller 12:17:49 AM
i like trampled by turtles and anything by Low... :)
Fried Monkey Eggs (Monkey Jelly) 12:17:54 AM
TAndy, yeah, I've also read that people are afraid to get a diagnosis because of what you've just mentioned. I had to get mine earlier this year.
DJ Jagannath (host) 12:18:55 AM
That sucks to hear TAndy these are rough times for sure
TAndy 12:19:07 AM
I'm in a much better place now than I was at this same time last year, so I think I'll be alright for the foreseeable future. Perhaps 🧐
DJ Jagannath (host) 12:19:18 AM
I have to remember to wipe my phone when coming back through immigration in August
DJ Jagannath (host) 12:19:42 AM
Hopefully ICE is not on the WPRB Spinitron chat
Fried Monkey Eggs (Monkey Jelly) 12:20:03 AM
I got to see Mimi feeding little Cyrus on stage before the show. Alan was just a few feet away from me and my then-best friend when he walked to the band's van.
Fried Monkey Eggs (Monkey Jelly) 12:21:32 AM
ICE makes my blood boil. 🤬😡🥵🔥 The opposite of FREEZING! 🥶🧊
TAndy 12:22:00 AM
Woah, rare instance of a relatively mainstream album being played on PRB!
michael gudgeon 12:22:28 AM
in rainbows<3
DJ Jagannath (host) 12:22:31 AM
Felt I had enough underground cred built up for this
TAndy 12:23:46 AM
I feel like Radiohead and Gorillaz (to an extent) are cool enough to still get airplay on indie stations!
Fried Monkey Eggs (Monkey Jelly) 12:24:22 AM
I had to cancel my plan to go on a study tour (for older adults) because of this shizzle. It really sucks. If I ever go, I plan to bring a burner phone and leave my smartphone at home. I might get a lawyer too just in case. I have to renew my passport in two years. It sucks that I may never get to use it until after renewal. I'm just going to wait and see what will happen.
DJ Jagannath (host) 12:24:24 AM
This is also one of my go-to (sorta) sad songs
Fried Monkey Eggs (Monkey Jelly) 12:24:56 AM
Radiohead is the ALWAYS the top choice for emotional stuff! 💯
TAndy 12:27:25 AM
I just got my pasport earlier this year, and I'll likely be using my old work phone or a cheap used Pixel phone if I ever have to travel internationally. That's always been the plan anyway, I wouldn't wanna lose my personal phone and all 400gb of my music abroad!
DJ Jagannath (host) 12:27:35 AM
That's unfortunate yeah, I know some international students here at Princeton couldn't get visas to return
DJ Jagannath (host) 12:28:05 AM
I'm personally lucky that mine is 5 years long so I don't need to get it renewed until I'm done
Fried Monkey Eggs (Monkey Jelly) 12:28:45 AM
400 GB is a good chunk of data!
Fried Monkey Eggs (Monkey Jelly) 12:29:17 AM
FREEDUMB! LOL! 😂
Ossy 12:29:53 AM
ICE = totally reeks
TAndy 12:30:09 AM
That's what happens when you listen to EDM genres for years, and all you have to show for it is an overdose of DJ mixes lolol
Fried Monkey Eggs (Monkey Jelly) 12:31:01 AM
Wow, I feel for those students. I went through hell (almost a couple of decades) just to get my citizenship.
Fried Monkey Eggs (Monkey Jelly) 12:31:27 AM
ICE, ICE baby! 😂
DJ Jagannath (host) 12:31:32 AM
Apologizing in advance for the mainstreamness if its too much
Fried Monkey Eggs (Monkey Jelly) 12:31:48 AM
Definitely not Vanilla Ice!
Fried Monkey Eggs (Monkey Jelly) 12:32:51 AM
Well, it's free-form radio, Jagganath, so anything goes—any genre goes! It's all good in the 'hood! 😁
Ernie Weller 12:34:03 AM
I'm enjoying all of the instrumentation...last cut had: harmonium, oboe, dobro, a bunch of things I already forgot, oh yeah, a harmonica!
TAndy 12:34:19 AM
Ooh hell yeah car seat headrests
Guelo 12:50:09 AM
that dnb was crzy fire
Fried Monkey Eggs (Monkey Jelly) 12:51:29 AM
Sigur Rós! 💯💯💯
TAndy 12:55:19 AM
Thank you for the show tonight, DJ Jagannath. I hope that things keep getting better for you, have a good Friday and weekend!
DJ Jagannath (host) 12:56:08 AM
You too! Things are not as bad as the playlist make them seem dw
Ears 12:56:36 AM
Hi all! Just popping in to say hi to all and thanks for the music!
Ossy 12:56:47 AM
Lovely so sad show theme so to relate with others
Fried Monkey Eggs (Monkey Jelly) 12:56:48 AM
Thanks so much for the awesome show! 👍💯
DJ Jagannath (host) 12:58:02 AM
Thanks for listening!
Ernie Weller 12:58:35 AM
Sigur Ros is touring the west coast in November then off to Europe...
DJ Jagannath (host) 12:59:31 AM
They don't deserve them smh
Ernie Weller 12:59:50 AM
and also...thx for a great show DJ Jagannath!!!
DJ Jagannath (host) 1:00:46 AM
Of course, hope to see you next week
Fried Monkey Eggs (Monkey Jelly) 1:01:05 AM
I have to keep my eyes peeled on the shows since I'm on the West Coast.
