Tinariwen : Madatjem Yinmixan

This week’s podcast is brought to you by my new, improved, and moderately impulsive self; it’s a brief concert journal, featuring tracks from the recent shows I’ve attended since my last ‘cast update. The only concert representative absent here is Joanna Newsom, and as no last-minute addition of her music to this list could do any degree of justice to the breathtaking experience of her performance, I chose to omit her from the program. However, with or without Joanna, I’m pleased with this one.
The commentary-free list:
Dave Davani Four: The Jupe
Stars: Take Me to the Riot
Stars: Sleep Tonight (Junior Boys remix)
Immaculate Machine: Phone No.
The New Pornographers: Challengers
The Cool Kids: Gettin’ It
M.I.A.: World Town
Cadence Weapon: Sharks (ft. Final Fantasy)
Final Fantasy: Paris 1919 (ft. Cadence Weapon)

This week we have mostly fresh, mostly new music for your listening enjoyment. We have a couple of tracks that feature slightly more indigenous African-sounding percussion/instrumentation, one song with a nearly unsingable chorus, one incredibly funny song, then some gorgeously well structured pop music. Hope you crazy kids dig it as much as that fourth podcast.

At long last, this post has made its way to your nimble ears. And oh what a post it is; clocking in at an hour and 5 minutes, this is a historic post for yours truly. I chose to supersize it this week to add in a new, rough, travelogue section wherein I attempted to transcribe an annotated playlist of a particular moment in time. Perhaps I’ll do it again, or perhaps not. Anyway, if nothing else, I hope this post tickles your fancy.
