Episode 13 of This Is Not Happening stays in NYC with Skyzoo's new album All The Brilliant Things following up the 70s palette of St Vincent: Daddy's Home. The much-respected Brooklyn MC's 7th album finds him writing a paen to his changing city, gentrification and history. It's a beguiling work that Nolan brought to us get deep on as we move into season 2 of the podcast. There's playlists that run alongside the episode here.
In the second half of the episode, we talk tracks of the summer, with a favourite from us that reminds of us the warm months. Our longlist is here, see what we thought of the picks:
David - The Millennium - To Claudia On Thursday
Joey - Clive Field Marshall - Island In The Sun
Guy – Metronomy - The Bay
Nolan - Black Sheep - Summa Tha Time
July's album of the month and all our new tracks, playlists, and chat from the past decade or more can be found on our blog at www.thisisnothappening.net, which runs alongside the podcast choices and much, much more.
