New music including Clairo, Girl and Girl, Magdalena Bay and L’Rain on this week’s West Of The Fields podcast

West of The Fields

I continued exploring recent releases from Maggie Rogers, Billie Eilish, Camera Obscura, A. G. Cook, Amen Dunes, Fat White Family, Fabiana Palladino, Mount Kimbie, Beth Gibbons and Cindy Lee on the show this week, while the retro alternative set took us back to 1993 in honor of another recent Pitchfork Sunday Review, this one of Scottish electronic group One Dove’s one and only album, the lost classic “Morning Dove White,” produced by the great Andrew Weatherall. The set includes shoegaze legends (Slowdive, Chapterhouse), college radio standbys (Red House Painters, Yo La Tengo) and plenty of alternative classics (Nirvana, Smashing Pumpkins, The Cranberries).
