3am Mixtapes: Episode Eighty Eight: Dreams

in
Each week on the 3am Mixtapes podcast, I will share with you the Top Six Songs of a certain subject. The topics can be as general as best songs off a soundtrack. Some might be a little more... specific. Top Six Songs About Body Parts. 

Whether they are hopes and dreams, or sleepy dreams, or Fleetwood Mac dreams, a lot of artists have been inspired by the subconscious mind trying to sort your shit out. So this week, I figured I would do the Top Six Dreamy Songs!

 Fantasize to these songs:

"Dreams of Surrender" by Savvie
"Sweet Dreams" by Kandle
"Undream a Year" by Valleys
"Darkness of the Dream" by The Tallest Man On Earth
"The Canadian Dream" by Sam Roberts
"Dreams" by Shad

3am Mixtapes: Episode Eighty Six: Polaris '015

in
Each week on the 3am Mixtapes podcast, I will share with you the Top Six Songs of a certain subject. The topics can be as general as best drum solos. Some might be a little more... specific. Top Six Bands That Sound Nothing Like Their Name Implies. 

While my goal is to not repeat topics on this podcast, I figures with a new long list of different albums, it would be okay to do another Polaris Music Prize themed episode. So this week is the Top Six Albums I'd Pick Were I a Polaris Juror in 2015! (Which I'm not). Well, five picks, and one overlooked album.

Vote for:

"Take Your Face Off" by Lydia Ainsworth
"Deserter" by Siskiyou
"Taste" by Braids
"Four More Years" by Rich Aucoin
"Cynical Bastards" by Arkells
"Harriet" by Hey Rosetta!
