Wed, 01 Jan 2025 01:25:28 -0000

Very happy new year!! Ring it in with a return from your fave music dipshits, summing up a strange, disjointed but ultimately still really fun year of listening to cool tunes. We know we've been away for a while, but no amount of horrendous personal circumstances could keep us away from a mic forever. Love to all our listeners, especially to those who have supported and championed Hot Singles in our absence. We love you all, mwaa~

The wrestling pod Boo mentions: https://linktr.ee/officialgrapplypodcast The intro track (Alexis' track of the year, sexy drill is the wave bb): ilham - uhm...ok?

You can find Alexis on twitter and bsky and on her other podcast, All-Union Radio. (no one realised that the theme track for AUR is a cover of ML Buch's High speed calm air tonight but maybe that's more obvious now that you know I was rinsing Suntub all year lol)

Wed, 22 Sep 2021 14:00:00 -0000

Hello! This week we talk about two phenomenal jazz albums, Bitches Brew by Miles Davis and Journey to the One by Pharoah Sanders, and we ask ourselves: what's the point of music? ALSO we talk about the website, Rate your music, for... longer than it maybe deserves BUT it was a good and interesting conversation!

NEXT TIME!!! We will be talking all about Loveless by My Bloody Valentine, which I am told is not a 00s metal band, and Repetition by Unwound which is also not a metal band. (i promise this joke will make sense once you hear the ep. it's fine)

It's a good time! We love Marcy.

Next time we will be back to be absolutely one hundred percent no holds barred ON. OUR. BULLSHIT. Which is to say we'll be talking about some wanky electronic music Regs likes with Tri Repetae by Autechre (please forgive me if I spelled any of that wrong), and motherfuckin 1017 Thug by Young Thug!

Thu, 01 Apr 2021 13:00:00 -0000

This week we are joined by Niamh of Ghost Divers to talk about........... well a lot of things. But that discussion is framed around 3 fantastic albums lol. First, we talk about Flowers by Sin Fang and the history of krútt music in Iceland. Then we move on to Apocalypse Girl by Jenny Hval and psychoanalytic gender feelings and transubstantiation. And finally end on Transformer by Lou Reed as we get into the messiness of queer history and loving an album that doesn't have very many good songs on it lol. It's a fantastic discussion, I hope you all enjoy it, we had a blast recording it.

Next time! We will be joined again by Marcy to talk about LIVE.LOVE.A$AP by A$AP Rocky, E by Ecco2k, and Strange Mercy by St. Vincent! I'm really looking forward to it, these all seem like bangers. (Well i already know that the A$AP tape is a banger, but you get the idea).

S2E13 - The Truth Hurts & Descender

Sat, 13 Mar 2021 16:28:46 -0000

SORRY I KEEP FORGETTING TO UPLOAD EPISODES ON TIME I'M SORRY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

This week it's a nice cozy normal podcast. No theme, no guests. Just two gays emoting into a microphone about music they feel passionately about. First we have Autumn's pick, The Truth Hurts by Drakeo The Ruler, followed by Regs' pick, Descender by Post Louis. These albums are really close to our hearts for very very very different reasons, and we got a lot of good discussion out of it.

Next time will be a gender feelings extravaganza as we are joined by Niamh Schönherr to talk about Flowers by Sin Fang, Apocalypse, Girl by Jenny Hval, and Transformer by Lou Reed! We will additionally be covering one of my favorite books ever, Lou Reed's Transformer by Ezra Furman! Yes, I know. I brought a book to the podcast on top of the 3 albums. It's a bit extra, but we're a bit extra. You love it.

Next time, we will be discussing.... well a lot of stuff. There's a note about it in the episode. Autumn (me) had a bit of a crisis. But the main things are The Truth Hurts by Drakeo The Ruler and Descender by Post Louis! It'll be a good one, so make sure not to miss it!

Specifically those albums are The Low End Theory by A Tribe Called Quest, Eccojams by Chuck Person, and Dxys Xff by Teams. We get into the nitty gritty of legacy, microgenres, and bad pitchfork lists. It's a really good one!

Hot Singles is back to talk about the PHENOMENAL post-punky record Silence Yourself by Savages and the all-time classic hip-hop record Madvillainy by Madvillain. We of course get diverted several times to talk the state of rock music in the 2010s, DOOM's legacy as rapper and producer, afro-pessimism, and..... well i won't spoil it. But we made a bad choice.

We will be back again soon to talk Low End Theory by A Tribe Called Quest and Dxys Xff by Teams. But wait there's more! We will be joined by Marcy again to also chat about Chuck Person's Eccojams Vol. 1!!!!!!

A holiday treat! We're back again to talk about Owen Pallett's In Conflict and both the post-Blonde singles and the visual album Endless by Frank Ocean! As before - the Frank material is dispersed behind a lot of paywalls and providers, so drop an email to exportaudiopodcast@gmail.com if you need a hand getting hold of them. We chat about genre and defying it, as well as queerness and how these two artists (maybe only one in Autumn's case) speak to it in different ways.

Next week we're covering two self-titled albums, by Arca and Aaliyah. Again, the Aaliyah album is not available on streaming services, so if you want something other than a YouTube video, give us a shout and we'll hook you up x

hi friends! If you don't subscribe to the export audio patreon, I'd like to introduce you to one of our bonus podcasts, Replacement Level. Regs and I talk about sports a lot, and sometimes we put it in the patreon feed, that's basically it. I was going to put this in the patreon feed but for some reason Patreon isn't letting me upload things, and I'm impatient, so enjoy this FREE EPISODE!!! Lucky you.

Anyway in this episode, Regs and I talk about Daryl Morey taking over basketball operations in Philly, Paul George being a fucking fraud, and one Premiere League game You Can't Miss. did i spell premiere right?

Thu, 22 Oct 2020 21:10:56 -0000

We are joined by Marcy to talk about, arguably, the three best albums we've covered so far?? These ones are real good and our discussion is great I M O. First we have Descendants of Cain by Ka, a very traditional rap album. Then we talk about Weight of the World by MIKE, a very avant garde rap album. And finally 1000 gecs by 100 gecs, which is.............................. out there lol.

By the way, you can buy the MIKE album and the gecs album on bandcamp, which you absolutely should do! And you should check out one of MIKE's previous albums, May God Bless Your Hustle, because it's fucking amazing.

S2E4 - Car Wheels On A Gravel Road by Lucinda Willaims & Purple Mountains by Purple Mountains

Thu, 24 Sep 2020 12:30:00 -0000

Content warning for discussion of suicide and suicidal ideation. The Purple Mountains album deals with this a great deal, and we talk about that as well as David Berman's death shortly after the album's release.

After a longer than intended break (Regs moved and Autumn is working A LOT), we are back with a country music extravaganza. We talk about Lucinda Williams' alt-country classic Car Wheels On A Gravel Road, and David Berman's recent album that really reckons with dark subject matter in a tongue-in-cheek sort of way.

Our next episode will also be a little late because Autumn is getting a big surgery done and will need a few weeks to recover, but when we're back we will be joined by our friend Marcy to talk about 1000 Gecs by 100 Gecs, Weight of the World by MIKE, and Descendants of Cain by Ka

Next week? By god is that a guitar? Is that TWO country albums? Perhaps a country album and an indie rock album with a lot of country flavor??? I guess you'll have to listen to Car Wheels on a Gravel Road by Lucinda Williams and Purple Mountains by Purple Mountains to find out.

Mon, 16 Jul 2018 13:57:02 -0000

Welcome to episode 1 of Hot Singles, a podcast about music hosted by Ali (@Alison_Coffee) and Michael (@regresssion). To kick off we're doing exactly what we said we wouldn't do by slamming an artist we both really don't like.
