New music including Peggy Gou, Caribou, Mount Kimbie and Mandy, Indiana on this week’s West Of The Fields podcast
I continued exploring recent releases from Bolis Pupul, Fabiana Palladino, Vampire Weekend, The Black Keys, Waxahatchee, Kim Gordon, The Jesus and Mary Chain and Yard Act on the show this week, while the retro alternative set was a bit more vibe-oriented than usual, focusing mostly on female-fronted “electronica” groups from the late ’90s and early ’00s but also including some more indie-rock oriented tunes (Ivy, Lush, Snowpony), trip-hop (Esthero, Smoke City) and throwback ’60s sounds (Saint Etienne, Candie Payne) from around the same time period.
