Hello, friends. A handful of vaccinated acquaintances and injudiciously-sprouting bulbs aside, we’re still deep in the throes of the pandemic winter. To make your ongoing hibernation more pleasant, I’ve been scratching at the frozen earth and gathered another hour’s worth of tasty musical morsels new and old that sound the way February 2021 feels.

You can listen to this episode via the embedded player just below in this post—if you don’t see it, try turning off your ad-blocker then reloading the page—or on the Mixcloud website, via the Mixcloud mobile app, on your Sonos system, etc.

There’s also a woefully incomplete iteration of this episode’s playlist on Spotify (minus my commentary, as well as many songs that are missing from their library).
