Hey everyone hope you're all doing well! Slightly different show tonight lined up

Already loving the show, DJ Jagannath. I love this song

Gotta be Slint at their best, the ending is so good

Yay, Slint!

Totally different vibe tonight.

💯💯💯

For sure, this is my depressive song lineup lol

"I'm only happy when it rains." 😁

Totally

This so relatable

yeeee jaga!

excited for some sad stuff!

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!

Cool theme tonight!

Haha this was inspired by my experience staying on campus for the summer

Spinitron chat = good times!

summer school playlist 💀 I feel that

😎

Oh yeah, especially I get so much sad days most of the time:D

Ditto!

any thoughts on the cover of "postcards" by Florence & the Machine

I actually don't think I've heard it, is it any good?

i love a good cover, but i'm on the fence...

Gotcha, I'll check it out

Oh man, this song. 3

Whole album is peak slowcore (however stupid that genre name is)

May I send some sad-time recs in the chat? This playlist is gold rn.

wow.......

Always welcome TAndy

Oh man, this song........

Adding this to my playlist too

Purple Mountains is great, same guy behind Silver Jews

I prefer this album over the Silver Jews stuff, Berman committed suicide a month before it released which was tragic

"depressive song line up" - he said

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

Will definitely listen to them

You, Me And The End Of Everything by Ben Frost; Would Anyone Die For Me? by Death Kneel.

Unfortunately WPRB doesn't seem to have the screamo classics or I would have definitely played Indian Summer or Saetia

RED HOUSE PAINTERS <33333

Thanks again for this show tonight <3

Anytime! This is my own cry for help as they say lol

The Loneliest Summer EP by Porch Kiss is a must-listen too. I highly recommend it :)

Perhaps a bit fitting these days...

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.

Loving this one <3

Those screeching strings are so good

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.

Low <3 <3 <3 <3

I actually saw Alan open for GYBE last year, super cool

Resonates with my sad weeks

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.

was just about to ask if you could play 'When I Go Deaf" (Low)

I got to see Low live when they were promoting their Trust album.

I wish I got to see Low.

Ernie I don't think we have that album in the library sadly

i like trampled by turtles and anything by Low... :)

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.

That sucks to hear TAndy these are rough times for sure

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 🧐

I have to remember to wipe my phone when coming back through immigration in August

Hopefully ICE is not on the WPRB Spinitron chat

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.

ICE makes my blood boil. 🤬😡🥵🔥 The opposite of FREEZING! 🥶🧊

Woah, rare instance of a relatively mainstream album being played on PRB!

in rainbows<3

Felt I had enough underground cred built up for this

I feel like Radiohead and Gorillaz (to an extent) are cool enough to still get airplay on indie stations!

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.

This is also one of my go-to (sorta) sad songs

Radiohead is the ALWAYS the top choice for emotional stuff! 💯

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!

That's unfortunate yeah, I know some international students here at Princeton couldn't get visas to return

I'm personally lucky that mine is 5 years long so I don't need to get it renewed until I'm done

400 GB is a good chunk of data!

FREEDUMB! LOL! 😂

ICE = totally reeks

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

Wow, I feel for those students. I went through hell (almost a couple of decades) just to get my citizenship.

ICE, ICE baby! 😂

Apologizing in advance for the mainstreamness if its too much

Definitely not Vanilla Ice!

Well, it's free-form radio, Jagganath, so anything goes—any genre goes! It's all good in the 'hood! 😁

I'm enjoying all of the instrumentation...last cut had: harmonium, oboe, dobro, a bunch of things I already forgot, oh yeah, a harmonica!

Ooh hell yeah car seat headrests

that dnb was crzy fire

Sigur Rós! 💯💯💯

Thank you for the show tonight, DJ Jagannath. I hope that things keep getting better for you, have a good Friday and weekend!

You too! Things are not as bad as the playlist make them seem dw

Hi all! Just popping in to say hi to all and thanks for the music!

Lovely so sad show theme so to relate with others

Thanks so much for the awesome show! 👍💯

Thanks for listening!

Sigur Ros is touring the west coast in November then off to Europe...

They don't deserve them smh

and also...thx for a great show DJ Jagannath!!!

Of course, hope to see you next week

I have to keep my eyes peeled on the shows since I'm on the West Coast.
