      nice! I’ve always had a weird love/hate relationship with the Stones. Not sure why. Love some of their work, hate some of it, absolutely no logic behind it.

    Right at this moment, LCD Soundsystem in Soho Radio. I mostly listen to radio stations that have live DJs but are commercial-free, like WPRB Princeton, KALX Berkeley, BBC Radio 6, WFMU, KFJC, NTS Radio 1 and 2. That’s my playlist of radio stations I cycle through.

    As for the one individual song I am listening to the most - and this one has been THE ONE for the full past year, it’s become my favorite song ever - it has to be “Zum Wohl” by Cluster, from 1976.

    The more I listen to Krautrock, the more it blinds me like staring at the sun. Utterly incredible. Post-punk before Punk had even happened yet, they transformed the world. Even early Hip-Hop artists like Afrika Bambaata fell under its’ spell.

    Anyway, here’s another Krautrock gem:
    “Time” - La Dusseldorf.

    I’m listening to Ghosteen by Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds. This album is like nothing I’ve ever heard before. One starts to hear shades of it on Push the Sky Away and it develops further on Skeleton Tree, and this record feels like the band finishing what they started on those two albums. Nick’s lyrics are open and honest (and open to interpretation) and the influence of Warren Ellis can be heard all across this album. The title track is an absolute epic. Well worth a listen.

    Right now I’m checking out Bill Callahan’s YTILAER because of you @ren - but if anyone wants a recommendation, I’ve been completely obsessed with John Grant’s album Queen Of Denmark. Phenomenal stuff - check out the title track or Sigourney Weaver.

    As far as alternative music goes, I finally got around to listening to the first 5 Pearl Jam albums. I thought the first 3 were mostly pretty good.

    Otherwise, in addition to the usual metal stuff I’m listening to, I’ve been listening to a lot of yacht rock and 80’s/90’s funk/r&b/new Jack swing

    Not music persay but I have been listening to a lot of the “salute the sample” segments by ll cool j on YouTube. Its a pretty cool dive into the samples that drive hip-hop.
