SHOW OF THE WEEK

MILK MEN IN THE PM ~  with DJ Dulce de Leche & DJ Tres Leches

FRIDAYS @ 9-10 PM

GENRE: Alternative, Hip-Hop/Rap, Indie, Bongo Solos

Pierceson Joseph Brown & Marshall Borus

WCFM absurdism might've reached its peak with this one. On the station website, Pierceson and Marshall tempt the unassuming web surfer: "Interested in songs and discussions about caramelized desserts, creamy confections, or sweetened condensed milk? Well, you came to the right place, we just like the sound of those things." All I'm thinking about right now is that plopping sound you can make when you slap a spoon against the top of a freshly-opened container of Skyr. Pierceson and Marshall like U2, The Orb, Boyz II Men, and Taylor Swift. If you're not sure where those artists fit on the dairy spectrum, you'll have to tune in to find out.
FEATURED MUSIC
Laila's Wisdom
Rapsody
The sole guest verse on Kendrick Lamar's frantic opus To Pimp A Butterfly goes to the low-profile Rapsody. And for good reason. The North Carolina MC infuses socially-conscious bars with perfect doses of braggadocio, emotional nuance, and wordplay. It's on full display on her sophomore release Laila's Wisdom. The legendary 9th Wonder handles the bulk of production, making the album sound straight out of 2005 in the best way possible. Key tracks - "Power (feat. Kendrick Lamar & Lance Skiiwalker), "Nobody (feat. Anderson .Paak, Black Thought & Moonchild)."

Aromanticism
Moses Sumney
Moses Sumney's falsetto doesn't warrant description. It's just really really really beautiful. The LA crooner, who's received high-profile endorsements from fellow enigmas Solange, Sufjan Stevens, and James Blake, just dropped his debut album Aromanticism and its beauty is devastating. Spacey soul/R&B that hits basically every emotion and probably creates new ones too. Key tracks - "Doomed," "Plastic," "Quarrel."

Painted Ruins
Grizzly Bear
The music blog favorite Grizzly Bear is back after a five year hiatus. Almost none of their former indie contemporaries are relevant anymore.  Ed Droste and company don't seem to care - they're still making weird, uncategorizable songs. Incorporating an eclectic mix of pulsating synths, baroque strings, and indie guitar stylings, the music feels like a product of 2017. So does the recording process. According to a recent Noisey interview, the band members collaboratively recorded entire sections of the album through file-sharing on Dropbox. Grizzly Bear doesn't sound the same, but what did they ever sound like? Key tracks - "Three Rings," "Mourning Sound," "Glass Hillside."
