Hello from South Jersey!

good morning!

Perfect soundtrack for getting some computer work done at the kitchen table with my fiancé

Yeah, today is definitely a good day for mellow music

glad you're enjoying it!

Good morning Austin, Michael, & all ☀ These mellow tracks are restful after a work call....

Hi Christine! We're enjoying the mellowness as well

Is there a connection between K.C. Accidental and Broken Social Scene that I'm remembering?

Yup!

KC Accidental was the group between Brendan Cannning and Kevin Drews that preceded BSS

They also named a song KC Accidental on You Forgot It In People

Ahh yes!

Ooh I love this. Good morning all

Good morning gaby!

Between the title and sound, feels like it should be on a Wes Anderson soundtrack

well here's some more penguin cafe orchestra for ya!

another awesome song

🐧 ☕✨

lovely

Hard agree

I didn't know I needed that in my life

Thank you

Kinda reminds me of These Days by Nico

@connor, beautiful. Do you know who the artist is?

yeah a little bit! I hear it in the strings

now I wanna listen to Nico

Chelsea Girls is a near perfect album

It really is

@christine thats from a slice of life anime called Shirokuma Cafe. Penguin is a regular at Polar Bear’s cafe haha

@connor, domo!

What instrument is this right now?

No idea, I wish I knew because it sounds awesome

Reminds me of a jaw harp, but on a close mic and played very slowly

Sometimes one does not realize they are in the mood for panda bear till one hears panda bear.

HARD AGREE

Bros will always be my favorite song ever

Gonna play the first song from the EP now because it's such a good EP

As far as what that sound is, me thinks it is a sample of an effected guitar effected even further. seems like a thing they would do.

Yeah that was my thought, a guitar with tons of effects

🐼 👍

Good morning! Really digging the last 2 Panda songs. Always find another album to add to my collection on this show

Hey Li! That's very sweet of you to say :)

I will gladly play Panda Bear any week

this is good, too. Do you know what year it's from?

Lemme see

Hmm, Discogs doesn't have the year, but here's the release page: https://www.discogs.com/release/5683512-Phillip-Parkinson-Control-Them-Take-Us-Home

It's from the Twinkle Brothers' label, which put out a lot of high quality reggae

(You should also check out the Twinkle Brothers!)

Thanks--that's the same thing i found. I will check out Twinkle Bros! :)

yes--also fell in love w this LP after hearing a song maybe on Starz End. Need to find that, here somewhere...

definitely a gem!

A needed chill vibe.🕊️ Thanks, Austin.

oh man, needed this song right about now

of course, thanks for tuning in as always! Love seeing y'all

Good time Austin!

Sorry it had to cut off early, but y'all got the idea. Go check it out!

See y'all next week
