episode 008 | 21.04.2021
when I started the experimental trash podcast, I was not quite sure how to approach it. so, I made playlists of songs by artists that I admire and respect. But the concept of just generating a monthly playlist seemed unchallenging and uninteresting. I tinkered around after this episode and try to make it more timely and reflective of real-world and personal events. There are some good fucking songs in the first eight episodes- and you should track these artists hard.
