Good morning. We’ll be off Thursday and Friday.
Today’s episode opens with a few ambient compositions on the lachrymose side, from William Basinski, zakè, and øjeRum. There are two excerpts from SUSS’s new album, Birds & Beasts, which we’ll hear more about on the Ambient Country podcast tomorrow. There’s new contemporary classical from Laura Cannell, Marika Takeuchi, Howe Gelb, and Henrik Lindstrand. Then we play slightly more energetic instrumentals by Beta Librae, KMRU, Alanis Morissette, and a Kronos Quartet cover of Jlin. Finally, Daft Punk’s “Veridis Quo” takes us home. We hope you enjoy.
