    Episode 753: Adele Bertei
    Mar 20 2026
    No New York picks up where Peter and the Wolves, with young Cleveland transplant Adele Bertei landing in New York amid a burgeoning new scene. No wave -- a an avant-garde musical and visual art moment -- was harder to classify than its contemporaries, punk and new wave. Bertei participated in all aspects of the movement, as a member of the Contortions and the Bloods, starring in Lizzie Borden's Born In Flames, and even serving as Brian Eno's assistant as the legendary musician produced one of the genre's defining documents. The new book is a celebration of a movement, and more so, the women who made it.

The track marks the first single from Deaty's forthcoming debut LP, Birding, which finds the trio embracing life's challenges.

    Episode 751: Bette A
    Mar 7 2026

    Slow Stories took its time. Author Bette A(driaanse) revisited the work decades after initially committing it to print, this time with a new motivating force.

    An ambient soundtrack marks the second collaboration between Adriaanse and music pioneer, Brian Eno, following closely on the heels of last year’s delightful What Art Does: An Unfinished Theory. Adriaanse can now add narrator to an expanding list of jobs that already includes novelist, artist, and teacher.

    She also cofounded the non-profit artist network, TRQSE, through which she and Eno first crossed paths.

    Episode 750: Beatrice Deer
    Feb 28 2026
    Upon reflection, Beatrice Deer suggests that Inuit Legend may ultimately be her least personal record to date. That's not to say the musician doesn't connect deeply with the work, only that she's opted to draw on the stories of others -- both historical and folkloric. Deer has long approached her own life with a thorough candidness, as she discusses family, sobriety, and the struggles of the Inuit people. The latter form the focus of her latest work, as she finds echoes in her own family's story.

The most recent, “The Hunt In Edson," contemplates life through the near death experience of a mouse that took refuge in Edenloff's home.

    Episode 748: Mirah
    Feb 15 2026
    The pandemic wasn't a creatively fruitful time for Mirah. Life as a new parent no doubt played a major role in any such blockage, coupled, with a loss of the rituals attached to tour dates and album releases. Seven years would ultimately pass between records. When the time came to step outside her life for a moment, however, the deluge of Dedication came pouring out. The musician's seventh album is a celebration of the life that happened in between.

    Episode 747: idk
    Feb 7 2026
    Had he served all 15 years of his sentence, Jason Mills would have re-entered the world last year -- almost exactly half his life to that point. The gravity of that fact hasn't escaped him. As idk, the rapper has seemingly squeezed a few lifetimes in that space, including five albums, seven mixtapes, a lecturing gig at Harvard, and, recently, a Tiny Mix Tapes set. His latest single, "LiFE 4 A LiFE" finds him reflecting on lessons learned along the way.
