[Music] The Dusko Goykovich Sextet – Swinging Macedonia (1967)
Trumpet player Dusko Goykovich released one of the finest jazz albums to ever come out of the Balkans in 1967. Swinging stuff.
[Music] 草莓救星 (We Save Strawberries) – Solar System
Taiwan’s 草莓救星 (We Save Strawberries) are dream pop which would make Hope Sandoval smile, I’d gather.
[Music] Scott Walker – Epizootics!
It rarely gets much weirder than Scott Walker. The man is certifiably bonkers, but awesome on every level.
[Music] The Three Johns – English White Boy Engineer
Some classic post-punk for you, courtesy of The Three Johns.
[Music] Gary Oldman – The Man Who Sold The World (at Celebrating David Bowie)
It’s hard to believe David Bowie died a year ago. It’s even harder to believe that Gary Oldman did justice toBowie’s legacy with this rather decent cover.
[Music] Juan García Esquivel – Mucha Muchacha
Today is the 100th birthday of Mexico’s most fun export, Juan García Esquivel! Saludos!

Ben Patterson is a trombonist and bandleader working out of Washington D. C. He’s got a sizzling approach to Latin Jazz – nothing sterile here! It’s pure sabor!
[Music] The Edwin Hawkins Singers – O, Happy Day
People today are rightfully grieving the loss of Dolores O’Riordan of the Cranberries, who died far too early at the age of 46, but we lost another luminary as well. Edwin Hawkins passed away today due to complications from pancreatic cancer. He was 74, and he left one of the most joyous songs to ever get radio airplay.
[Music] Girių Dvasios – Ratu (Full Album)
Girių Dvasios is the moniker of Lithuanian techno musician Evaldas Azbukauskas. He’s been producing some of the best electronic music I’ve heard in a while.
