Good radio show outta L.A., find em on NTS Radio. November 15 show opens with haunting unshazamable ballad adapting Mahmoud Darwish’s Write down, I am an Arab
ive been obsessing over nts lately. i used to listen mostly just to clairo’s monthly shows (they’re a whole recommendation of their own lol) and maybe a couple other sets here and there but the past month and especially this past week, its what i’ve listened to the most. it’s made me fall in love with music and audio all over again. great way to discover new music and genres and go deeper into whatever your taste are. so refreshing and theres a discord too which is very sweet. support if u can, 50% of the proceeds go to the artists:) some of my favorites:

I don’t know how Josh found this exactly but it’s one hour of Christian new wave and full of some of the most haunting songs ever. Introduced me to one of my favorite albums rn (“Emotional Tourist” by Steve Scott) along with tons of other singular tunes. It makes me feel like driving around in the dark. I heard it for the first time four years ago and I still listen to it all the time.
