Soundcheck Feb. 22

Thanks for tuning into Soundcheck’s last show of the month. Catch up on the songs played on today’s show with the track list here.

Daughter frontwoman Elena Tonra is out with her debut solo album Ex:Re. It’s a proper break-up/heartbreak album filled with haunting production and superb vocals and lyrics. “Crushing” featured on today’s show. “Where the Time Went” and “I Can’t Keep You” are other standouts. If you loved Not to Disappear or If You Leave, then this album will hit the mark.

Richy Ahmed’s remix of London Grammar’s “Non Believer” closed the show. You might recognize him from his mixes of Lana Del Rey. His latest EP is “Can’t You See.”

Soundcheck Feb. 15

Posted on February 15, 2019 by Ann Yao Zhang

Hope you all had a great Valentine’s Day yesterday. Today’s track list has some sweet celebrations of love in Glades’ “Drive” from their album To Love You, and Oh Wonder’s “Landslide,” as well as some equally lovely lamentations in London Grammar’s “Interlude” and Verite’s “Need Nothing.”

In new music news: St. Lucia has released Remixed, a compilation album of some of their best tracks remixed by different artists and producers. Joywave’s mix of “Dancing on Glass” is a fun listen, with a unique twist on an already great song.

Big Wild’s much anticipated debut album Superdream is out now. As someone who’s been following his work since his “Aftergold” days, this album really does deliver. “Pale Blue Dot,” “Heaven” and “Awaken” are all standout tracks.

As always, thanks for tuning in to Soundcheck. Until next week,

Ann
