https://www.kexp.org/podcasts/song-of-the-day/ The best source for new music in my life for almost two decades now. Really just consistently excellent.
Amazing diversity of programming
I have discovered SO MUCH new music through these guys
Several friends who DJ or music direct there from my time in Seattle
They are pledge driving now! 🙏🏻
It's Friday so I am actively seeking "moving my ass into the weekend" music.
I heard it first on the Seattle station KEXP, 90.3 in the city and KEXP.org worldwide.
KEXP is also a great place for music discovery when you're burnt out or looking for inspiration and connection to community.
Lots of my forever-favorites but also incredible diversity on the playlists and musical programming; the station has an Afropop show, a diaspora of Spanish language and cultures show, multiple hip-hop shows, grassroots/Americana/blues Jamaican sounds, ambient, soul, jazz, in addition to rock of a variety of flavors (except for MOR dumbass rock, none of that). I'm on it all the time and constantly (pleasantly) surprised by what I hear there.
