KSDT @ UCSD

Today's show encompasses the theme of nihilism and is comprised of tracks from various genres related to it, whether its through the lyrics or the emotions conveyed in the track's melody. This setlist was inspired by the exuberant nihilistic vibes found in Pointlessness by The Voidz.

The first show of spring quarter features the Poolside remix of Lamb's Wool by Foster the People ~ certified song of the summer ( if it doesn't get rinsed by then) . Also featuring the musical collaboration of Connan Mockasin ~ New Zealand Psychedelic pop artist with a voice like silk. Finally, we end on a soulful note with artists Thee Sacred Souls, Chiiild, and the collaboration of Dev Hynes and Connan Mockasin, the best collab since bread and butter.

Modern disco-esque tunes.

In this episode, we'll pay homage to the elusive, yet influential rapper, MF DOOM, who passed away in late October of 2020. The news of his passing was made known to the public on the very last day of 2020, making the event of his passing feel very fresh in the hearts of fans, including myself. The first song I ever heard by the Villain, as he is commonly referred to as, was Rapp Snitch Knishes from the album MM...FOOD. I was attracted to the super sick guitar riff of the song (sampled from Space Oddity by Dave Matthews) which was unlike any other hip hop song I had ever heard of at the time. But the lyrics... omg. I felt like I was getting life lessons for a lifestyle that I wasn't living, but yet somehow it felt like it pertained to me. The song immediately reminded me of Bobby Schmurda (iykyk)

If there's one thing about MF DOOM's music is that it's as lyrically affluent as it is producer-heavy. Undisputedly talented, his legacy will live forever. The Man, the Main Superstar, MF DOOM
