Episode 6
“Everything is Just Dreaming”
Welcome. Here are what passes for show notes. The reason the playlist is in the format you find it is because I really need a life. The very overwrought explanation can be found here.
Format is:
Artist/Band Name – “Song Name” – Album Name – (Band’s/Artist’s Country of Origin, Year of Song’s Original Release)
Ty Segall — “When I Met My Parents Pt. 3” — First Taste — (USA, 2019) — Bandcamp
Melt Yourself Down – “Fix My Life” – (UK, 2013) — Bandcamp
I had my notes in front of me that clearly said “Fix MY Life” and yet I identified the song in the show as “Fix YOUR Life.” I need to fix my contact lens prescription.

Best place to get the track is on Space Echo – The Mystery Behind the Cosmic Sound of Cabo Verde Finally Revealed! You can grab that from Analog Africa here. (I promise, they’re not paying me to play so much stuff. I don’t even realize it’s their stuff until I start compiling notes.)

Just to reiterate the two mysteries: 1) Where can I get more of Jenna Ross singing? (She’s the main vocalist on this.) 2) What is the voice saying…the one on top of Jenna’s English lines (I guess it’s Arto? Serj’s vocals are very distinctive.)
