On this episode of Vinyl Community Podcasts, host Sam St. John (Americana Sam) sits down with Nashville multi-instrumentalist Matt Glassmeyer for a fascinating conversation about improvisation, analog recording, musical creativity, and his new supergroup Slow Accordion. Featuring Glassmeyer alongside Oliver Wood of The Wood Brothers, bassist Ted Pecchio, and drummer Mark Rautabaugh, Slow Accordion brings four distinctive musical personalities together for an exploratory instrumental project built around improvisation. Matt takes Sam inside the formation of the group, explaining how four musicians who had crossed paths in different ways entered the studio without a rigid roadmap and discovered their sound by simply listening and reacting to one another. The conversation also dives deep into the making of Slow Accordion's self-titled debut, released by Royal Potato Family Records. Recorded in Glassmeyer's home studio using just four microphones and a four-track tape machine, the album embraces a raw, lo-fi analog approach where limitations become part of the creative process. Matt discusses why watching the tape physically roll while recording changes the way musicians perform, why fewer options can actually produce better results, and what modern recording may have lost in the age of unlimited digital takes. From there, Sam and Matt explore the larger history and philosophy of musical improvisation—from jazz and blues to fusion, jam bands, Americana, old-time music, and experimental sounds. They discuss everyone from Cecil Taylor and Keith Jarrett to Chick Corea, Weather Report, Frank Zappa, Joni Mitchell, and Bob Dylan, while questioning how useful genre labels really are when artists refuse to stay inside clearly defined musical boundaries. They also look ahead to Slow Accordion's live performances, where the group is learning how to recreate the spontaneity and space of its studio sessions in front of an audience. And then there's the description that may capture Slow Accordion better than any genre ever could: “the anti-AI summer soundtrack we all need.” In a world increasingly dominated by computers, algorithms, and artificial intelligence, Slow Accordion represents four musicians in a room, playing together in real time, recording to tape, making mistakes, reacting to each other, and trying to create something that exists only in that particular moment. It's an insightful conversation about improvisation, analog recording, vinyl, technology, artistic expression, and the very human act of making music. For fans of vinyl records, jazz, Americana, experimental music, The Wood Brothers, analog recording, improvisational music, or discovering artists outside the mainstream, this is an episode you won't want to miss!

This show begins with San Diegan pianist with Mexican roots, Irving Flores. His music is grounded in the Latin Jazz tradition. That is followed by the late great George Duke with tunes that show off his diversity of styles with R&B and Brazilian influences.

Catch last month's episode, where we dig into the rise of “waiting-in-line culture” in cities across America, the Spotify vs. Kalshi saga, Lebron James' post-factual free agency, and more.Hi pals. While we're off on vacation this week, we decided to do something a little different for this week's show.If you checked out last month's Weather Report, you probably heard that Andrea recently had the opportunity to participate in a multimedia installation at LA's National Museum of the Aftermath called “California Gothic” that dives into the question of what Los Angeles, and the lives of those who live there, will look like after collapse.The project is the brainchild of Gina Delvac and James Kim, two of the most creative minds working in audio storytelling today. For “California Gothic,” they commissioned audio creators, journalists, writers, and artists (Andrea included) to imagine a future where their favorite place in Los Angeles no longer exists, and then to create a speculative audio story about it — short prose, an intimate fiction scene, an ambient piece, or something surreal that doesn't fall into any of those. They ask: What memories reverberate from this place? What memories can still be heard? What have we lost?While “California Gothic” was (at the time anyway) a one-off event, we were so moved by the vision and creativity of these experimental pieces – which range from sound collages, to surrealist scifi, to letters from future selves – that we thought it would make for a sweet summer treat to feature them here on CUJO.Today's episode features six of those pieces, each imagining a different place in Los Angeles as remembered in a post-apocalyptic future. But first, Gina joins us for a quick chat about the meaning of “California Gothic,” why spoken audio should be recognized as an art form as much as a commercial output, and what's in store for the project beyond “California Gothic.” If you have ideas or want to get involved with future iterations of the project, reach out to Gina at gdelvac@gmail.com California GothicCuratorsGina Delvac is a native Angelena and podcast showrunner, audio creator, and curator.

Dave Rubinstein interviews Ilya Kabanov, a former Google AI security manager, about the disconnect between AI's rapid code generation and security measures. Kabanoff, who leads the Weather Report and is a research affiliate at MIT, discusses the significant progress AI has made in writing functional code, citing a 4x increase in security over a year. However, security checks cost five times more than code writing, posing economic challenges. Kabanov emphasizes the need for education, understanding AI's limitations, and prioritizing fundamental security practices to ensure secure AI-generated code.

Paid subscribers also get access to our CUJOPLEX Discord and The Weather Report, a monthly episode series where we take stock of where the cultural winds are blowing and tell you what's rained into our brains. Catch last month's episode, where we dig into the rise of “waiting-in-line culture” in cities across America, the Spotify vs. Kalshi saga, Lebron James' post-factual free agency, and more. Here at CUJO, we love ourselves a good topical film. And as far as hot-button topics are concerned, Our Hero, Balthazar, a new movie from Oscar Boyson and Ricky Camilleri, has it all: coastal elite vs. red state class antagonism, the performance of self on the internet, gun violence, toxic masculinity, MLMs, designer drugs, and more. Written during the internet-addled lockdown days of the pandemic, it follows Balthazar (Jaeden Martell), a wealthy private school teen and online “cryfluencer” from New York City who becomes a obsessed with Solomon (Asa Butterfield), a working-class internet troll he suspects is planning a school shooting, and travels to Texas to stop him.It's a crazy premise for a film, but what transpires ends up being a deeply believable exploration of what happens when you bring social media and the attention economy into one of the most challenging phases of life: adolescence. And while the subject matter isn't funny at all, the film, surprisingly, very much is. Balthazar hits streaming on Apple TV on August 11, so we're thrilled to have Oscar, who directed the film, and Ricky, who co-wrote and produced it alongside Oscar, on today's episode. You might know Oscar from his work as a producer on 2010s indie classics like Frances Ha, Good Time, Uncut Gems, along with the show Chillin Island, and Ricky from his work as a film commentator and video talk show host for media companies like HuffPost, but the pair have known each other since meeting at film nerd camp in their teens. We talk about how they came back together later in life to write Balthazar; why they chose to frame the movie, somewhat controversially, around the specter of a school shooting; and its unsparing examination of what it is like to come of age in a world where attention is currency.Plus: We get into the challenges they faced making a dark topical indie satire during a period of extreme risk-aversion in the film industry, the story behind the film's amazing Iceage needledrop, and how they drew inspiration from idiosyncratic coming-of-age films from the turn of the millennium like Larry Clark's Bully.

Catch last month's episode with Callahan & Witscher's Jack Callahan, where we dig into the Fenix Flexin saga and the future of AI-assisted music, the recent hipster discourse, and more.You've probably heard the phrase “the marketplace of ideas”: the classical liberal belief that when ideas compete freely in the public square, the best ones will always rise to the top. But what does that “marketplace” look like in the media landscape of the 2020s, where ideas are distributed via personalized algorithmic feeds and the public sphere has fragmented into clusters of charismatic content creators with cult followings? That's the question that Doomscroll's Joshua Citarella and New Models' Carly Busta and Lil Internet tackle in “The Online Marketplace of Ideas,” an installation they put together for Strange Rules, a group show currently on display at the Palazzo Diedo at Berggruen Arts & Culture in Venice, curated by Mat Dryhurst, Holly Herdon, and Hans Ulrich Obrist, with Adriana Rispoli. Hint: It's a room packed with over 400 t-shirts, hats, books, and other “dropship basics” from the personalities that have dominated the discourse in the 2020s, ranging from Joe Rogan and Call Your Daddy to Chapo Trap House, “Abundists” Ezra Klein and Derek Thompson, Andreas Malm, Curvis Yarvin, Balaji Srinivasan, and Byung-Chul Han.We brought on Josh and Carly to walk us through the exhibition, what bringing together all these objects reveals about the larger economic and geopolitical shifts this apparent ideological diversity obscures, the increasingly blurred line between being a content creator and being a politician, and our transition from the age of linear media into a neo-oral one. Plus: a cameo appearance from New Models co-founder Lil Internet, discussing his theory that this wild profusion of internet ideologies has become America's primary cultural export.Strange Rules is on display at the Palazzo Diedo in Venice until November 22, 2026Subscribe to New Models on Substack or PatreonSubscribe to Doomscroll on Substack and YouTube This is a public episode.

Saxophonist/composer Wayne Shorter (born Aug 25, 1933) is one of the most influential and prolific performers and composer in jazz. His time with the bands of Art Blakey and Mikes Davis firmly established him as one of the most original voices on his instrument, and provided a platform for his incredible original compositions. He is also featured on his myriad recordings as a leader in his own right. He was one of the cofounders of the supergroup Weather Report in the 70s.

Who belongs in America's story? As battles over immigration, public institutions, national celebrations, and freedom of expression intensify, a deeper struggle is emerging beneath the headlines: who gets represented, remembered, welcomed, and heard. In this Arts Freedom Weather Report, Bill Cleveland connects seemingly unrelated events—from the turmoil at the Kennedy Center and preparations for America250, to the FIFA World Cup, Pride festivals, immigrant-rights cultural organizing, and the rise of creative resistance networks. What emerges is a revealing pattern: artists and cultural organizers are increasingly finding themselves at the center of a national debate over identity, belonging, and democratic life. Listen to discover:Why “belonging” may be the most important cultural and political battleground in America today—and how artists are helping communities expand, rather than narrow, the definition of who belongs.How creative action is evolving from expression to civic practice—with artists using festivals, public art, storytelling, music, and cultural organizing not simply to protest, but to build community, visibility, and democratic participation.What today's conflicts over museums, national commemorations, immigration, Pride celebrations, and public institutions reveal about the larger struggle over America's future story—and who gets to help write it. Join us for a timely exploration of how artists, cultural organizations, and everyday citizens are using imagination not only to resist authoritarian pressures, but to create more welcoming, inclusive, and democratic communities. Notable MentionsPeopleJosef Palermo: The Kennedy Center's first visual arts curator offers a detailed firsthand account of the institutional turmoil, political pressure, and operational disruption that followed changes in the Center's leadership.Angel Faz: Dallas-based artist and community organizer whose imagery has become one of the most visible artistic expressions associated with the No ICE in the Cup campaign.Brandi Carlile: Grammy-winning singer-songwriter whose Be Human concert in Minneapolis raised funds for immigrant families while demonstrating how music can function as civic infrastructure and community-building.Organizations & InitiativesNo ICE in the Cup: A growing network of artists, cultural organizations, immigrant-rights advocates, and community groups working across World Cup host cities to create welcoming, creative responses to immigration enforcement and public fear.Free DC: An advocacy organization focused on protecting Washington D.C. home rule while building both political and cultural power through civic engagement and storytelling.Beautiful Trouble: An international training network that teaches creative activism, strategic communications, and imaginative approaches to social change.Center for Artistic Activism: An organization that helps artists and activists design creative interventions capable of producing measurable social and political impact.Minnesota Prison Writing Workshop: A nationally respected literary organization that supports incarcerated writers through workshops, mentorship, publishing opportunities, and public engagement.Cultural Institutions & PlacesJohn F.

A Venus week; the sun into cancer

✨ Welcome to your #cosmicweatherreport for the week ahead.

This week on Gig Gab, Dave Hamilton sits down with guest co-host Rand Lempert of the Broken Rings, a two-piece recording project built on 15 years of musical kinship between Rand and guitarist Gio da Silva. You’ll hear how these two have crafted an intentional, travel-fueled recording process across cities, cutting live instruments and vocals together, passing files between New Orleans, Tampa, and now Denver, and why that friction and urgency is exactly the point. Rand makes a compelling case for keeping things analog as long as possible: real amps, minimal pedals, old-school mic placements like a modified Glyn Johns setup, and the conviction that nothing replaces the feeling of having a human being in the room when the tape (or hard drive) is rolling. The conversation ranges wide, from Rand’s vivid 9/11 tour story, stranded in St. John’s Newfoundland on one of the last planes to land before U.S. airspace shut down, to a deep dive into the art of the perfect pop song, with nominations for Tempted by Squeeze, Big Star’s Thirteen, Bryan Adams’ Cuts Like a Knife, and Fastball’s Out of My Head. Whether you’re a working drummer obsessing over beat placement, a songwriter who only writes when the muse actually shows up, or a road veteran who knows that idle days on tour are far worse than grueling ones, this episode has your number.

Paid subscribers also get access to our CUJOPLEX Discord and The Weather Report, a monthly episode series where we take stock of where the cultural winds are blowing and tell you what's rained into our brains.What does it take to chronicle contemporary culture through the ancient medium of theater, and what new insights can it unlock about the present? On this episode, we talk with playwright, author, and critic Matthew Gasda about his recent staging of The Last Days of Downtown, the third and final installment of his “Dimes Square” trilogy, which chronicles the aspirations, anxieties, attentional antics, and creative rivalries of New York's post-pandemic downtown scene. Matthew joins us to discuss his role leading a resurgence of DIY theater in NYC — including as the founder of an institution called Brooklyn Center for Theater Research — and how he's used the medium to capture subcultures in real time, before they've even had a chance to register their place in history. We talk about the downtown's scene's polarizing legacy and where it fits within previous eras of NYC counterculture, what happens when you and your work become part of the story you're trying to tell, and how the world of the trilogy acted as a harbinger of culture in the decade to come.Visit the Brooklyn Center for Theater Research for upcoming plays from MatthewFollow Matthew on SubstackRead Matthew's novels and plays This is a public episode.

"If any blame or fault attaches to the attempt, it is mine alone." This is the end of the announcement Supreme Allied Commander General Dwight David Eisenhower had prepared in June 1944 in case the D-Day landings failed. He never had to deliver it, but the fact that he wrote it tells you all you need to know about how precarious the success of the invasion really was. And at the center of that uncertainty was something no army could control: the weather. This is the premise of the new major motion picture Pressure, the story of the small team of meteorologists trying to predict the unpredictable. Guest host Dr. Mark Jacobson sits down with the screenwriter of Pressure, David Haig, and the film's co-writer and director, Anthony Maras, to discuss how a simple weather forecast proved to be a critical piece of intelligence. *Note: It is Joan Clarke, not Joy.

You know, that archival-obsessed musical microgenre based on synthy, hypnotic samples paired with aesthetics like classical sculptures, retro corporate imagery, and Japanese kanji.It's almost a meme at this point, but vaporwave was one the first internet-born genres and art movements created entirely using digital tools, plundered from online archives. And beneath the placid, detached surface of vaporwave—somehow both nostalgic and ironic—there was a passionate community of musicians and fans creating something that in retrospect was actually quite political and subversive—if not in subject matter, then in form.A new documentary called Nobody Here: The Story of Vaporwave captures the evolution and cultural impact of vaporwave, told from the perspective of more than 50 artists, producers, and other key figures from across the scene, including Daniel Lopatin, 猫 シ Corp. (Cat System Corp.), Luxury Elite, George Clanton, Saint Pepsi. In keeping with the spirit of the movement, you can watch it for free on YouTube.Director Christian Britten and producer and artist Enzo Van Baelen, who's also co-founder of the label My Pet Flamingo, join us to talk about the genre's origins, including as an outgrowth of noise music, the role of anonymity in the scene, and how its use of meme-able visual iconography foreshadowed visual communication on the internet today. Plus, we discuss what we can learn from the story of a musical movement that was by definition unmonetizable (unless you're creating your own samples, that is).Watch Nobody Here: The Story of Vaporwave for free on YouTube.Download the film here.Check out the Nobody Here companion sampler over at Bandcamp.

Paid subscribers also get access to our CUJOPLEX Discord and The Weather Report, a monthly episode series where we take stock of where the cultural winds are blowing and tell you what's rained into our brains.We are making a film about Mark Fisher. Or at least, that's what artists Sophie Mellor and Simon Poulter say we are doing by interviewing them about We Are Making a Film About Mark Fisher, an experimental documentary about the late British intellectual Mark Fisher that is currently making its way in decentralized fashion through cities across the globe. (You can set up a screening in your town if you want). They made the film with the help of over 70 pro bono collaborators and produced it entirely via Instagram, with no budget, studio, or institutional support. We've never seen anything quite like it.Fisher was a political and cultural theorist, music critic, and philosopher who first gained notoriety blogging under the alias K-punk in the early 2000s, before becoming known for penning some of this century's most clear-eyed and affecting analyses of capitalism, popular culture, and our collective political future (or lack thereof). That includes his wildly influential 2009 book Capitalist Realism: Is There No Alternative?, which explores the idea that capitalism has become so dominant we struggle to even imagine alternatives. Fisher has been a big influence on us, so we decided to invited Sophie and Simon on the show to tell us about the film and offer us a little primer on his ideas. We dig in to concepts that were central to Fisher's work, including hauntology, hyperstition, and capitalist realism; why his work seems to be having a moment right now, especially among Gen Z; and how it reflected both the utopian promise of the internet and its eventual descent into today's commoditized, culture-war nightmare. We also discuss how Fisher's working-class background and refusal to accept hierarchies between fields like critical theory and music blogging shaped his unique perspective on the world—and how this “decapitalized film,” and the larger art project of which it is part, doubles as an invitation to gather offline and imagine new artistic and political futures together.Follow the project on Instagram, or attend a screening near youCheck out more of Sophie and Simon's work at Close and RemoteListen to our Hauntology retrospective with Simon Reynolds, Fisher's friend and contemporary This is a public episode.

And this year was particularly interesting — not just because of Justin Bieber and his laptop, but also because of Coachella's marked transformation into a mass televisual couch spectator event.Joining us for the debrief is Billboard editor Andrew Unterberger, who was in the trenches with Andrea for Weekend 1 and hosts the Greatest Pop Stars podcast. (He also moonlights as a basketball guy) We talk about how Coachella is actually three festivals now — Weekend 1, Weekend 2, and the livestream — and how the latter is transforming everything from the festival's booking strategy, the performances, to what the experience feels like on the ground. We also get into an overall aesthetic shift from influencer polish to rawness and imperfection, how the Bieber's set functioned as a metacommentary on how YouTube is TV now, and how the Strokes' performance visuals on Weekend 2 — which featured imagery of the wars in Gaza and Iran — touched a third rail in what was otherwise a surprisingly apolitical scene. Listen to the end for Andrea's dispatch on this year's style highs and lows, including the fate of the infamous boho circle belt.Follow Andrew on Bluesky Listen to his Coachella episode of Greatest Pop StarsRead Andrea's L.A.
