Hi DJ Lou! All fired up and ready to simmer.

Is there such a thing as Australiana?

i'd like to think there is!! we should adopt that term

how're you doing dan?

I'm good. How're you doin'?

not too bad!! busy week. happy the rain left!

i do tours here for my college, got drenched yesterday during one

so im happy we got sun today!

Yeah, it was raining really hard at times. It was so loud at one point it woke me up.

So you're the person who shows prospective students around?

yeahhhh the kind of rain im used to in seattle, but never here

yeah i am!

pretty fun job, fun to work with students at that age

Ha! That's the same reason I listen to the station - I like the energy from the student DJs.

So coming from Seattle do you like rain or have you had enough and just want sun?

both? i like a day or so of rain, but i came here for the sun. so i dont like when it lingers.

i get enough of it when im home, believe me

A couple days of rain is enjoyable but then I want the sun so I can go outside again.

I listened to Belle and Sebastian back in the day but never figured they would still be popular all these years later.

i have a soft spot for them, always have

reminds me of home? something about them is very pacific northwest to me

Yeah, there is a bit of melancholy in their music. They are from Scotland so I guess it's pretty rainy there too.

That's why I like Camera Obscura. Same vibe.

That is a good review - happy/sad music from Belle and Sebastian

they've mastered it! scotland makes sense to me

This song is really good.

yeah that was a new one off that album for me

experimental set today

big fan of that

Yeah, I've never heard that song either

The experiment is going well, Doctor

not too bad so far

This US Girls song has a nice disco/soul vibe to it. Nice groove.

i love this song! didnt really know how to follow the last one so i just played something i wanted to hear

and i always want to hear this

It's a good upbeat song to get you moving

https://www.pomona.edu/academics/departments/english/events

the second event is the one taking place tomorrow!

bear with me as i play two haley blais songs in a row - have wanted to play these in sucession on air for awhile

No problem. She has a nice sound and interesting lyrics

yeah i've loved her for a long time, and this album is especially good

Ah, Neko Case!

no one better!

I like her.

we don't have the album that has my favorite song of hers - this tornado loves you

i should get that here

Middle Cyclone - that's the album of hers that I have. Really good

yes! masterpiece

really want to see her live

I'm sure she puts on a good show

Good lyrics in this Courtney Barnett song

one of her best lyrically for sure

It's funny that she says the house is cheap yet it costs a half-million

Blondshell is from America according to the interwebs

everytime they have a slight sound to their voice, i assume austrailia

i think i listen to too many austrailians though

honorary austrailiana!

Oh, haven't heard Stella Donnelly in a while

this one is actually austrailian

Yeah, sometimes those Australians will sneak up on you

her record label is secretly canadian, but no one is talking about those secret austrailians

Haha! They need a new label

It's all koalas and wombats and the next thing you know Australians are everywhere!

Slow dance song

a few slow dances to end the simmer, why not?

Gotta wind down the evening

Ooh, love this song

i thought i remembered you requesting it before!

I did

Thanks for the Australiana show tonight

Thanks for the music and chat! Have a good week, DJ Lou!

thank you for listening dan!! catch you next week!!
