Episode 274 - The Record Club Mixtape (Episode 1)

Download

This week, we're fulfilling a promise we made when we started the Unsung Record Club - featuring episodes on the albums we've included in the club. We're excited to discuss four records available to record club members - two digital and two vinyl.

From the digital selection, we have The Burnt Tapes' "Never Better" and Adam Stafford's "Imaginary Walls Collapse." These albums are a true delight, showcasing the talent of these lesser-known artists we genuinely admire.

Moving on to the vinyl selection, we have Siobhan Wilson's "There Are No Saints" and Kaddish's "What World Was Still?" These records deliver a captivating experience that deserves recognition and appreciation.

When we launched this podcast nearly 6 years ago (!), our goal was to spotlight lesser-known artists we admired. Though we've covered established artists to broaden our reach, the record club remains our means of supporting underrated acts directly, putting money into their pockets, and appreciating their art in a way streaming services can't match.

By introducing these incredible artists to you, we hope you'll discover and enjoy their music too. It's our way of contributing to the music community and helping these talented musicians thrive.

We genuinely love all four of these artists and their work, so even if you're not a record club member, we encourage you to seek them out, purchase their records or merchandise, and help sustain their creativity. Your support means the world to them.

We hope you enjoy this episode, and thank you for supporting us in our mission to promote these exceptional talents. Together, we can make a difference in the lives of these unsung musicians and keep the spirit of their art alive.
