I wouldn’t count this as one of my better shows, but I did happily stay away from the world of indie rock, which was somewhat nice because it provided more time for hip-hop. On that note, Neferiu Records is quickly becoming my favourite source for Canadian hip-hop, and it’s especially excellent how many of their releases are available for free or a pay-what-you-can style.
In a similar way, the new album by Magnolius is available on their Bandcamp page, but their CD packaging is so beautiful that you’re really missing out by not purchasing it. It’s difficult to notice from the photo, but it comes in an over-sized (approx. 8″ x 8″) booklet, with the lyrics and liner notes transcribed on aged/recycled paper. Magnolius performed in Windsor last night, but I already made other plans to see Laura Marling, The Middle East, and Smoke Fairies at The Magic Stick.
Anyhow, here is the playlist for the May 6th edition of my radio show…
