#39: The first concert recap in so very long….Marleah and guest Henry recap CLAVVS (with Noods and b3cca), who they saw at Our Wicked Lady on 7/30/21. Marleah wants a shorts suit and hears jangle punk for the first time. Henry gives Our Wicked Lady a glowing review, and takes note of the hot Noods band members (prompting a discussion on whether it is possible to be twee pop, if you’re also highly attractive). Marleah and Henry agree that yes, it’s been a long, hard pandemic, so support local bands getting back into the groove!
What’s your next concert gonna be? Let us know.
CLAVVS just released their latest album O on 7/29/21, Noods released their debut album Blush on 4/16/21. Check them out!

#38: How Was It For You? Interview With King Crash
With concerts cancelled, bands make due. No NYC band is making a greater effort than King Crash, probably the first to play out in the city in lockdown. I sit down with Ryan Shivdasani, Jack Redford and Rubio to get an inside look about what it looks like to forge ahead as a performer in lockdown. We talk about the joy of public performances, what the upcoming Open Culture initiative could mean for performers, why the most colorful characters tend to approach Jack, how Ryan doesn't really want to hear Jimi Hendrix everyday, and Rubio gives some insight as to why other bands might be more reluctant to do all that King Crash does.
Also in this episode are mentions of a few other NYC bands that play out (info below).

#37: Lockdown Recap, Part 2: DJs/EDM, with Mindgazm
Alternative Title: But Where Can I Go To A Rave?
In Part 2 of the Lockdown Recap, Marleah is here to discuss the EDM scene in NYC (and tips for finding where to go in your own city if you’re not from around here), with Gregory Gelfand and Jenya Taran of Mindgazm, a local NYC DJ act she got to see twice over the past month, who also add live instruments and visuals to their sets, for a full electronic dance experience. In this conversation, we talk about the duo’s transition from band to genre-fusing EDM act, the expanded sonic palette (how we love this phrase) electronic music lends itself to, the future of melodic dance music, the 20 year NYC music cycle, how DJs are leading the charge in the NYC music scene (Marleah is a little tough on bands here, sorry), what the underground looks like, and how “you really can’t stop people from being tribal”. Plus, a How Was It For You? discussion, where Marleah finds out what the Mindgazm set she saw was like for them (Greg is ok with a little unexpected B2B!). The video version will be posted soon on our IGTV, and Mindgazm’s EP One Funky Evening is set to release on TRAX Records on 11-27-20!
