Weekly Mix 3: January 22, 2017

I’ve got quite a show for you today. Not only do I have a fantastic mix of eclectic music for you to groove to, but we’ll also chat with Geneva Bee, who provides the illustration of the headphone wearing beauty who graces the album art for each show.

I first discovered Geneva Bee through my girlfriend, who follows Geneva on Instagram. Through her illustrations Geneva creates a world of whimsy and color that’s decidedly very girly. Seeing Geneva’s artwork in my Instagram feed always delivers a hit of dopamine. When I launched The Weekly Mix I asked Geneva if she’d allow me to use one of her illustrations for the album art for each show and she was generous enough to let me.

See you next week with another weekly mix. I’m out of here.

  1. Interview with illustrator Geneva Bee
  2. Tall Can & Generik “Bridge ft. Generik & 12Gage The Poet”
  3. OKBADLANDS “Dust & Gold”
  4. PNL “Le monde ou rien”
  5. Lil Uzi Vert “Scott and Ramona”
  6. Anderson.Paak “Come Down”
  7. Chairlift “Ch-Ching”
  8. Yola Carter “Home”

Weekly Mix 2: January 15, 2017

Before we get to this week’s music I wanted to let you know that you can also hear The Weekly Mix every Sunday on KAOS Radio Austin at 6PM Central. KAOS Radio Austin used to be a pirate radio station but they’ve gone legit and now broadcast over the net instead of the airwaves, delivering the weirdness you’d expect from a city like Austin. I chatted with KAOS Radio Austin’s founding member and programmer, El Demento, last year for Pop Culture Intelligentsia, so it’s my great pleasure to be part of their radio station. It’s also my pleasure to have El Demento on today’s show and I hope to make it a tradition to talk with programmers from every radio station that carries The Weekly Mix.

You can find me online on Twitter at @josephaleo or on my website at josephaleo.com Want to contact me? Email me at joseph@josephaleo.com.

  1. Interview with El Demento, founding member and programmer for KAOS Radio Austin
