The Monday Morning Brew usually lands in paid Substack subscribers’ inboxes on a Monday morning. This week, it’s open to everyone.
Each edition is a little different. Some weeks, I focus on new releases; other weeks, it’s a dig into the past, pulling out records that might resonate with anyone who reads KLOF or listens to our mixtapes. There’s always an element of discovery — lesser-known artists alongside names you’ll maybe know — and the kind of context you won’t get from an algorithmic feed.
The playlist opens in Tucson with Howe Gelb’s expanded Giant Sand, lingers with Vetiver, Micah P. Hinson and Bill Callahan, then dives into the Swiss underground via Les Disques Bongo Joe — Orchestre Tout Puissant Marcel Duchamp, Cyril Cyril, Meril Wubslin — alongside The Black Angels’ Alex Maas and French improviser Romain Baudoin.
Dig in below.
If this is the kind of thing you want more of, paid subscribers get the Brew playlist every Monday.
