New Playlist: February 2023

Welcome, all, to the February 2023 edition of the Rosy Overdrive monthly playlist. While last month’s playlist didn’t yet feature all that much music from the new year, this month I dove into 2023’s new offerings with a vengeance. This is a great one in terms of brand-new songs, truly. I had to cut aContinue reading “New Playlist: February 2023”

New Playlist: January 2023

Welcome to the Rosy Overdrive January 2023 playlist! This one features less “new” music than these typically do–there is some here, to be sure, but the bulk of my January listening was taken up by two “projects”. One was that I read the entirety of Endless Endless: A Lo-Fi History of the Elephant 6 MysteryContinue reading “New Playlist: January 2023”

The Playlist Archives: January 2018

I’ve been meaning to go into my playlist archives again for a while, and early January seems like a good time to do it. So: we’re skipping back half a decade, looking at what music I was listening to in January of 2018. It appears that it’s mostly 2017 albums that I discovered through year-endContinue reading “The Playlist Archives: January 2018”

New Playlist: December 2022

It’s the new year, yes, but that doesn’t mean that all the music from 2022 has expired like–I dunno, some kind of food that expires. Anyway, I spent December catching up on a bunch of records from last year that I missed the first time around, listening to some December releases, and exploring some olderContinue reading “New Playlist: December 2022”

New Playlist: November 2022

Welcome to the November edition of Pressing Concerns! This is the last post on Rosy Overdrive before year-end list time begins–yes, you’ll see some of the bands here again soon. Also present here are a few more selections from my 1997 deep dive, which should continue into next month as well. Kevin Dorff is theContinue reading “New Playlist: November 2022”

New Playlist: October 2022

The October edition of the Rosy Overdrive playlist is here! For once, it’s actually being published in October, so, happy Halloween to you all. You’ll find a lot of great new music here, some already covered in Pressing Concerns, some not, as well as some archival selections (mainly from 1997). Idle Ray has three songsContinue reading “New Playlist: October 2022”

New Playlist: September 2022

Welcome to the September edition of Rosy Overdrive’s monthly playlist! This month in particular was hard to whittle down to two hours–I wrote about 28 different records in Pressing Concerns over the past month, which probably had something to do with it. Emperor X and Mike Adams at His Honest Weight have three songs onContinue reading “New Playlist: September 2022”

New Playlist: August 2022

Happy September! That means it’s time for Rosy Overdrive’s August playlist. Some of these songs will be familiar to readers of the blog, some will not be, but all of them are worth checking out. So, do so! Kiwi Jr., Mo Troper, Tall Dwarfs, First Rodeo, Home Blitz, and Dogbreth all get two songs onContinue reading “New Playlist: August 2022”

New Playlist: July 2022

The Rosy Overdrive July 2022 playlist is here! A host of new music (but previously-touched on and thus far untouched on the blog), some selections from my 1980 exploration, and a couple random tunes, as always. Lee Bains III + The Glory Fires, Friendship, New You, Fox Japan, Gordon M. Phillips, and Perennial all haveContinue reading “New Playlist: July 2022”

New Playlist: June 2022

Welcome to the June 2022 Rosy Overdrive playlist! There are many good songs from the past month on here, as well as some songs not from 2022 that are still good and worth your time. You’ll see! ME REX, Motherhood, and Wire get two songs on this playlist. Guided by Voices get three (I’m backContinue reading “New Playlist: June 2022”
