3am Mixtapes: Episode Forty Eight: Then & Now

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 like best Winnipeg bands.  Some might be a little more... specific. Top Six Songs by Fictionals Bands from Movies and TV Shows.

This week I’m gonna throw something a little different out there, the Top Six Then and Now Songs! Let's jump on the time trampoline and we'll hear an older song from a band, and then back to the future to hear one of their newest.

Compare and contrast:

"Kasparov" & "Nightcrawlin'" by Royal Canoe
"Swing Your Heartache" & "In Fire" by Young Galaxy
"Acid Tongue" & "Slippery Slope" by Jenny Lewis

Any questions or comments or waffles or criticisms or suggestions for future themes are welcome!

3am Mixtapes: Episode Twenty Six: Matthews

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 like best international bands. Or some might be a little more... specific. Top Six Bands That Sounds Nothing Like Their Names Imply.

This week, it's the Top Six Matthews! Even though Matthew is a common name, there seems to be an unnatural amount of Matts in music. Want examples? Here are six (well, actually, nine!)

These are the Matts I know I know:

"Young & Lazy" (acoustic) by The Matinée
"Ode to the Prairies" by Treelines
"Hold on to the Metal" by Royal Canoe
"On the Hood" by Matt Mays & El Torpedo
"Dust On My Collar" by Matthew Barber
"Via Dolorosa" by Matthew Good

3am Mixtapes: Episode Twenty: 2013 Favourites

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 like favourite Maritime Bands. Or some might be a little more... esoteric. Top Six Songs From Musical Episodes of TV Shows.

Now, tell me, who says two weeks into 2014 is too late to do a 2013 Favourites list? I scoff at them! Scoff! But anyway, this week is not necessarily the Top Six Songs of 2013, but rather Six Of My Favourite Songs of 2013. There was a lot of good stuff released last year, and I'm terrible at picking favourites as it is, so this week is not THE Top Six Songs of 2013 but A Top Six Songs of 2013.

Featuring:

"The Wolf" by Phildel
"River" by The Belle Game
"Nearly Midnight, Honolulu" by Neko Case
"Sandcastles" by Paper Lions
"Bathtubs" by Royal Canoe
"Push the Sky Away" by Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds
