Ep. #1117: Horse Lords

Andrew Bernstein and Max Eilbacher from Horse Lords are here to discuss their new album Demand to Be Taken to Heaven Alive!, excellent Indian food in Winnipeg, why all of Horse Lords now live in Germany, being tagged as “Krautrock” and residential coincidences, the socio-economic conditions that might spur artists to migrate around the world, whether or not the rise of Angine de Poitrine means inventive instrumental music is having a moment in popular culture, why and how the new album incorporates Sacred Harp singing, utopian and dystopian concepts and addressing geopolitics as an instrumental band, recording drums really separately, upcoming shows, other future plans, and much more.

Ep. #1084: Janel Leppin

Janel Leppin returns to discuss her new solo album Slowly Melting and Pluto in Aquarius by Janel Leppin’s Ensemble Volcanic Ash, her ability to compartmentalize her visual art impulses from her musical ones, why she frequently releases more than one album on the same day, how Susan Alcorn and David Lynch remain constant inspirations, an eye-opening Mdou Moctar tour, making protest jazz music in a politically volatile time, her compelling and dynamic use of the cello as a lead instrument in jazz expressions, her tribute to Deerhoof, why she employs fuzz and distortion, loving pedals and naming songs after different ones, upcoming shows, another new record, other future plans, and much more.
