Newest Industry Presents - Flatbasset Radio: Episode #25

Me & Garrison Keillor on the four-wheeler sippin' tequila...

Hello again, free music fans! Welcome to Flatbasset Radio: Episode #25!
 
For those of you who are unaware of the Flatbasset Radio format, here's what you're looking at: TCDroogsma is our resident MP3 junkie. As you've probably noticed in his Songs Of The Week column, he's not always the most positive music fan. In an effort to prove that he is, in fact, a fan of music, we give him an hour each week to play the songs he's digging and talk a little bit about them. Once he's recorded his podcast we put it right here on the website for free to stream!

In this week's episode Droogsy eschews Christmas songs for "secular music," uses the term "dream-poppy-prog-rocky...," celebrates a young rapper who passed too soon, concedes that he's let his laser noise game lapse, ranks Santa's reindeer in this week's Power Rankings, indulges his love of dopey love songs, and, at least for this week, puts down his axe in his fight against an indie rock icon.

Newest Industry Presents: Flatbasset Radio - Episode #9 (Best Of 2012 Countdown!)

Threat Level: Orange Juice...

Well hello again, music fans! Welcome to Episode #9 of our weekly Flatbasset Podcast!

For those of you who are unfamiliar with the podcast, here's the story. Each week TCDroogsma participates in our Songs Of The Week column. Since he's typically kind of a jerk in that column we asked him if he'd like to put together a weekly podcast to prove that he actually does like music and, on occasion, has interesting things to say about it. Foolishly, we also asked him to wish our readers a Happy New Year. So now this exists:

Since this is the first week of the New Year we asked TCDroogsma to put together a Top 10 list of his favorite 2012 albums. Not only did he do that, but he also scolds children, explains a theory about British discographies, explains why Chris Martin put Coldplay on hiatus, actually says, “Nobody does Bloc Party quite like Bloc Party,” (which is arguably the dumbest sentence this blog has been affiliated with), and wishes everybody a happy new year!

Click the player above to listen to the podcast. Click the title below to download it for your very own.  Here's how the show breaks down:

Flatbasset Radio – Episode #9 (Best Of 2012 Countdown!)

10. Why? - Thirteen On High (from the album Mumps, Etc.)

09. Illogic & Blockhead – Heartless (from the album Preparing For Capture 2)

08. The Vaccines - Teenage Icon (from the album The Vaccines Come Of Age)

07. Killer Mike - R.A.P. Music (from the album R.A.P. Music)

06. Bloc Party - Real Talk (from the album Four)

05. P.O.S. - All Of It (from the album We Don't Even Live Here)

04. Aesop Rock – Leisureforce (from the album Skelethon)

03. The Cribs - Jaded Youth (from the album In The Belly Of The Brazen Bell) 

02. El-P - The Full Retard (from the album Cancer 4 Cure) 

01. Blur - Under The Westway (from the single Under The Westway)

So there you have it, everybody. That's the last 2012 list we'll be publishing here on Newest Industry. Bye by, 2012. Thanks for everything.

For more TCDroogmsa he can be found on Twitter (@TCDroogsma) or rambling away on his personal Flatbasset blog. Don't be surprised if that yellow hat makes its way into his day to day wardrobe.

Newest Industry Presents: Flatbasset Radio - Episode #6

Ain't got no milk, no mothafuckin' cereal...

Well hello again, free music fans!  Welcome to the sixth episode of Flatbasset Radio!

As you may or may not know by now, Flatbasset Radio is a weekly podcast put together by regular contributor TCDroogsma.  He spends so much time on this blog being a snarky asshole that we almost feel obligated to have him put together a podcast to prove that yes, he does actually like music.

This week TCDroogsma reveals his personal theme song, reluctantly plays Neil Young, coldly uses his friends heartache for his own selfish means, laments the breakup of the internet's favorite rap group, ponders a world in which Interpol died in a tire fire, and celebrates Phatnumber's birthday!
