Steven begins this episode like he has many other installments of Indiecast — by complaining to Ian about the performance of his Fantasy Albums team. In this instance, he thought he had a sure thing — a new Taylor Swift album — but after a predictable wave of early raves, Taylor's Metacritic score has tumbled amid a critical backlash. What happened? (0:30) Steven and Ian also recap their recent experiences at two very different concerts, Phish at Sphere and Cindy Lee in San Diego. (16:08)After that, Steven proceeds to rant about Oasis not get inducted into the Rock And Roll Hall Of Fame this year, and how this underlines once again the Rock Hall's bias against alt and indie bands of the 1980s and '90s. (25:24) He also compares Foreigner and Peter Frampton to former NFL quarterback Trent Dilfer. and it definitely makes sense. Then the guys review the new album by the charming Austin indie-pop duo Hovvdy, who make very good patio music. (36:23) In the mailbag, a listener brings up new music from Menomena and if it's ever bad to sound too much like yourself. (45:07)In Recommendation Corner, Ian talks about the “sasscore” band SeeYouSpaceCowboy while Steven goes for a classic rec with the '80s band Love And Rockets. (52:57)New episodes of Indiecast drop every Friday. Listen to Episode 186 here and subscribe wherever you get your podcasts.

Dave Allen is the founding bass guitarist for the post-punk band, Gang of Four. In 1981, he left Gang of Four to form Shriekback. He later founded World Domination Recordings and two of its bands, The Elastic Purejoy and Low Pop Suicide (with Rick Boston). He appeared on several LPs and EPs with each of these bands, The Harvest and the Elastic Purejoy's The Clutter of Pop and Talk Radio. After leaving Shriekback in 1988, Allen founded King Swamp with other former bandmates. According to Pitchfork.com, in 2006, Allen formed a super-group under the name Faux Hoax with Danny Seim of Menomena, John Askew of Tracker, and Pioneers Press author Adam Gnade. A 7" single, "Your Friends Will Carry You Home," featuring Gnade on vocals, was released by Polyvinyl records in 2008. JC got a chance to sit down with Dave to talk about the formation of Gang of Four, getting into the tech industry, living in the PNW, and what he's up to now. All of this and much more on this new episode of theFIVE10 Podcast!

Because our mailboxes are flooding with requests for year-end giving, we're listening back to an episode we did last year with philanthropist, instigator, and friend to the arts, Dorie Vollum, who also kindly came aboard as our guest curator.This week, Vollum helps us explore what giving means — not just to the individual giving, but for the arts organizations on the receiving end, and how those relationships work. We look at her family’s deep history in the Portland economy and supporting institutions ranging from the Oregon Symphony to the Oregon College of Arts and Crafts. And we get personal with the people and institutions that Dorie personally has dedicated herself to, beginning with Menomena band member Justin Harris.The Tectonic Shift That Altered Oregon - 6:03How much of Oregon's arts and culture has been fueled with oscilloscope money? More than you think. The Vollum family made its money at Tektronix, a hugely successful maker of testing and measuring equipment founded by Howard Vollum and Jack Murdoch (whose name tops another big foundation). The men started Tektronix after World War II to make a better oscilloscope. By 2007, the manufacturer was valued at $2.85 billion. Vollum and Murdoch both ended up distributing much of their wealth to organizations across the Northwest, although they went about it in very different ways. Grist For The Mill: PICA's Origins - 13:39The firebrand founder of the Portland Institute for Contemporary Art, Kristy Edmunds, was a big part of what drew Vollum to join in among PICA's early supporters. But there's more to the story. We hear from Edmunds, architect Pat Harrington and former board member Peter Koehler Jr. about what drew each of them to the idea of a maverick contemporary art group that would form a link between Portland and the wider world. Seeding the Portland Japanese Garden - 20:24The Garden is near and dear to Vollum’s heart. Not only is it the first place her mother-in-law took her in Portland (the Vollums played a big role in its early years), but now she's chairing the garden's $33.5 million capital campaign with $9 million more to go. It's thanks in part to her that this popular attraction keeps growing, up from 100,000 annual visitors to almost a half million this year. With the addition of its new Cultural Village and other improvements, the Garden now stands to be one of the most important Japanese institutions in the world, and the only place outside Japan that teaches the ancient art of Japanese gardening. We ask: what does it take to pull off something this ambitious?How Will Shifts at Meyer Memorial Trust Impact Artists? 30:29Significant changes are afoot in the upper end of Oregon's foundations. In 2015, the Meyer Memorial Trust, the state's third largest foundation, sent a shock wave through the nonprofit world, announcing it was taking a temporary hiatus on new grants. It gives a lot of money to a lot of groups, including arts and cultural groups, and it's rethinking everything. We spoke with Doug Stamm, the ex-Nike executive who runs the Trust, and asked him how the changes at Meyer will impact Oregon artists. The Gift That Changed Everything - 40:36In 2011, the Oregon Community Foundation got a call no one saw coming. The Portland manufacturer Fred Fields had died and left $150 million to OCF with the simple instruction: spend the money on education and the arts in Oregon. OCF did not have much arts infrastructure and suddenly found itself the biggest arts funder in the state. What do they do with those extra millions every year? They bet it on innovation.

So lovely for "Slice o' Ginga" (Ginger Slice) to drop by Tuff City Radio 90.1 FM studios for an interview, with a special .mp3 in tow... Check out my chat with the Tofitian MC and mixologist, better known around these parts as one Ginger Lee, starting at 48:30 of the program. "It is a magical night in Tofino," she pointed out... Then, don't miss her exclusive guest mix, which kicks off at 57:19. DJ Xoiko gets in the hot seat at 1:38:43 to give us a sense of the #bassline madness you'll be able to expect from his new show in the weeks to come... Until then, you better get ready because we've got everything from "The Turtle" by Nathan Fake (@nthnfk), to Manitoba's (@caribouband) "Crayon," to Menomena's "Wet and Rusting" -- plus heaps in between. We'll start it all off with a @ducky Rave Tool, then move on to hit up some Patrick Topping (@patrick-topping-official), even including Disclosure (@disclosuremusic) and A Tribe Called Quest (@a-tribe-called-quest-official) along the way. It was obviously a day to play old favourites on my part, such as "Black and Blue" by Miike Snow (@miikesnow), while mixing in some newer numbers like the Friction remix of Gorillaz' "Dare" and Calyx and TeeBee's (@calyxteebee) "Nothing Left". And to bookend the whole experience, I decided to premiere a great slow rap jam from a fellow treeplanter's Victoria squad Cognac Crew (@user-474057469-21693356). Cheers for the heads up Shihottie. Plus, I melded the #podcast version into form using, at one point, six different vocal layers. So soak up the #chorus #reverb and #overdrive and kick back, because this, is the Frequency Horizon. #peace homies... (Originally broadcast March 29, 2016 on 90.1 FM Tuff City Radio in Tofino, B.C., Canada)

Hell's bells, it's another in-garage Garage Hour.  THIS is the purest gearhead talk, surrounded by fire extinguishers and beers and Muslim wrenches and ammunition and AR parts and truck parts and racecar parts and beer! We've got to confess: this one's a little dark.  Hostus Maximus Justin Fort, Surfer Greg and Majid from GSR Car talk near-death experiences, ethnicity and religious humor, things in the ocean that could kill you, attack Muppets, bullets and where to put them…  But then again, if the Garage Hour did it, you know it's PG, and meant to make you think, not close your mind. Topics on this one vary from the show's budding relationship with Helix Brewing Company in lovely, scenic industrial La Mesa, beers that matter, why black guns matter, why Justin is an honorary black guy, truck parts, truck mud, making a black & tan with vanilla cream ale and chocolate porter, and and why no one will order the Ocean Beach Pizza Port's Stinky Hippie Pizza. From there, the cohosts hit their rhythm - Bond versus Bond, Twitting versus Instagramming, engineers versus ARs, blowtorch versus vice, technology versus trendy, VW versus the US gov't, red versus yellow versus pink beer, and attack dolphins versus SEALs. To tie it all up, yup, we do indeed chat about cohost Majid's recent escapade of driving (sorry, sailing) his new deep-vee to Catalina for only making it four miles offshore before it shuts down on him…  Of course, the first thing he did was call the Garage Hour, mostly because we're awesome, but also because we have friends with tugboats. If you'd like the low-fi version of this edition, grab the same date podcast with the "MP3" tag in the header.

There are musicians in Portland who seem like they've played with everyone. And then there's Dave Depper. His resume is a who's who of local acts: Menomena, Loch Lomond, Fruit Bats, Laura Gibson, and at least 18 others. He's also toured with national names like Ray LaMontagne.But now he's stepping onto a bigger stage— much bigger stage. Last year, Death Cab for Cutie announced that Chris Walla, it's original guitarist and primary producer, was leaving after 17 years. Then it asked Depper to take Walla's place for the world tour of its newest album, Kintsugi [kint-SU-gi]. Depper made the late night rounds with the band. He's and just returned from a month long tour in Europe. He has a few days off before playing Edgefield in Portland and Les Schwab in Bend.Then he's on the road for basically the rest of the year. State of Wonder producer Aaron Scott sat down with him to find out what it's like to be an overnight rockstar.

The Curiocast because there are indeed some odd little bits and pieces on this week's podcast.  Listen to it and you might not notice much different - it's not exactly shocking or all that strange or anything like that, but there are most certainly a few odd little things here and there.Geographically, we have music from Karachi, Vienna and Novosibirsk.  Genre-wise, we have some of the first R&B(ish) music ever to appear on a Toadcast and then we end with seven minutes of choral folk singing performed in Hamilton Mausoleum, reputed to have the longest echo of any building in the world.  So none of it will knock you off your feet in a 'what the flying fuck is that?' sort of a way, but there's definitely some odd little bits and pieces on this week's podcast.  Which I like.01.

I find the world quite good enough for me -- rather a jolly place, in fact.Keegan (looking at him with quiet wonder):  You are satisfied?Broadbent:  As a reasonable man, yes.  I see no evils in the world -- except of course, natural evils -- that cannot be remedied by freedom, self-government, and English institutions.  I think so, not because I am an Englishman, but as a matter of common sense.Keegan:  You feel at home in the world then?

Apologies for the lateness of this week's podcast, but inevitably the chaos of SXSW nudges schedules into the background a little.  Last year, several margaritas the worse for wear, we sat down with Ben from Instinctive Racoon, Stuart from Creative Scotland, Vic Galloway from BBC Radio Scotland and Peej from Dear Scotland, and recorded a ramshackle, lurching podcast about the fun of the week. This year, perhaps goaded into something bordering on professionalism by the presence of the BBC camera crew who have been following Vic around all week, things were a little smoother.  Although this may also have been related to the fact that the margarita-hoovering didn't actually start until afterwards this time. Ben wasn't here this time, but we did have myself, Peej, Vic and Stuart sharing a beverage on Peej's back porch and talking something approaching the usual gubbins. Oh, and the Detour Scotland Big Walk video we mention in the podcast can be found here. 01. Admiral Fallow - Squealing Pigs (00.37)02. Withered Hand - Religious Songs (10.40)03.

2008... the year for Hipster-hop? Maybe. I've been thinking about and using that term for a while (about a year now) and I was only a little surprised to see Blender use the hipster-hop phrase to describe the scene bubblying up in places like Chicago, Baltimore and NY.

Lupe Fiasco hasn't been able to "Kick, Push" his way past the early hype that surrounded his first effort, '06s Food & Liquor. This is unfortunate considering he's this generations answer to the eminent group, A Tribe Called Quest. His rhymes are fun and intelligent and never plummet into the usual benighted and boorish blather that most MCs rely on today. That is probably why you haven't heard him. Too bad his new album The Cool probably won't change that. With that being said, I kick off this weeks Snobcast with his new single "Superstar" and end it with another song called "Superstarr Pt. 2" by my favorite Canadian MC, k-os. Make the jump to see the rest of this weeks play list. Read the rest of this blog at The Donnybrook Writing Academy.

Bring on the music of 2008. Please!! I don't want to hear another fucking song off Neon Bible, Kala, or Sky Blue Sky for a long time. Now I know I promised to have the official Donnybrook Best-Of list ready last week, but I just could not listen to any more Band of Horses. Now that I've detoxed from the overload of year-end lists I'm finally ready to release the best (and last) Best-Of that you'll need to read. Our readers voted, commented, and almost OD'd on the Snobcast Recap: 2007 series. I narrowed down the most mentioned albums and have compiled the best Snobcast of last year.

Awww, the Best-Of list. Everybody longs to have the definitive outlook, but nobody ever gets it right. So here’s what we will be doing: We will be analyzing the year end lists of some other "reputable" music publications, I’ll sort of edit them accordingly to fit my preferences, and then play those songs on the Snobcast. Then you, the reader, can tell me what you think should stay; what should go; and what should be added or subtracted from the list/playlist. In the end we will have compiled the definitive Best of 2007 list. Read the full blog at
