Soundcheck Feb. 8

Welcome back to another semester of Soundcheck! Here‘s the track list of songs from the show.

Singer-songwriter Ella Vos’s EP Watch & Wait is out now. Single “Cast Away” opened today’s show. “Temporary” and “Empty Hands” are also standouts. Her debut album in 2017 was Words I Never Said, and is worth a listen as she develops a newer, more sophisticated sound on this EP. Hopefully another studio album is in the works.

A few throwbacks today to some indie albums from the last few years which have flown under the radar: London Grammar’s Truth is a Beautiful Thing featuring the gorgeous “Hell to the Liars,” Laura Welsh’s Soft Control with “Call to Arms,” and Verite’s much loved Somewhere in Between with “When You’re Gone.”

As always, thanks for tuning in. Until next time,

Ann

bean heist (2/7)

today’s theme: 2007-2019

this week I’m playing songs that I’ve been listening to since I was a little kid- partly because I’m stressed and when that happens the ratio of this kind of music I listen to goes up.

Some pretty weird songs in the mix, including:

loony tunas (Y.M.C.A) – yellow kitchen

come back home – seo taeji and the boys

speed up losers – crying nut

annular eclipse – crying nut

your crush on me – super high tension

oh! what a shiny night – crying nut

회상 – 산울림 (reminisce – san ul lim)

what’s the point of climbing a mountain? – kiha & the faces

americano – 10 cm

mine – kiha & faces

graduation – hyukoh

CAT – sunwoo jung

wi ing wi ing – hyukoh

honey tea – oohyo

 

listen to crying nut- not only is their name amazing, their songs are absolute bangers.

Bean Heist (1/31)

today’s theme is happy birthday dad!

it was my dad’s birthday yesterday and I thought it would be appropriate to play all his favorite songs today. And although he loves his Billy Joel, I think he’ll like hearing some old bops from Seoul 1970 as well- so I put some of those in the later portion of the show. (not k-pop. my father did not listen to kpop in seoul in the 70s.)

I sang a lot of these songs with him when I was really little so I’ll most likely be dancing along in the station as they play.

piano man – billy joel

hey jude – the beatles

hotel california – the eagles

sweet home alabama – lynyrd skynrd

uptown girl – billy joel

come together – the beatles

사람이 꽃보다 아름다워 – 안치환 (she’s more beautiful than a flower – an chi hwan)

오늘이 좋다 – 안치환 (today is good – an chi hwan)

거꾸로 강을 거슬러 오르는 저 힘찬 연어들처럼 – 강산에 (like the strong salmon that swim againt the current –  kang san eh)

사랑했지만 – 김광석 (although I loved her – kim kwang seok)

꼬마야 – 산울림 (little kid – san ul lim)

마법의성 (magic castle)

 

(I have no idea why the song title for the salmon song is so long.)
