Biweekly 2 hour mix live from Tulane University’s WTUL 91.5 fm in New Orleans and steaming at Wtul.fm. Personal show and mix archive now up and growing here: https://www.mixcloud.com/OatmealDubs/

Repost @mickydolenz: This month in 1967, @themonkees released “Pleasant Valley Sunday.” Written by the extraordinary Gerry Goffin and Carole King, the song reached No. 3 on the Billboard Hot 100 and No. 11 in the U.K. And somehow, it still feels just as much fun to sing all these years later.

As I haven’t updated Mixcloud in months you only get these two week windows to listen to the show. This one features rare groove and sound system culture into deep cut house and disco, and more (I’m underselling). Stream now!

Very inspiring to speak w/ Linton Kwesi Johnson, a great hero of mine. Topics: The wordless LP he just finished with wingman Dennis Bovell. The artistic renaissance among Britons of West African heritage. How this moment in history reminds him of the '60s, and why he's optimistic about the future.

Interview: Linton Kwesi Johnson

I spoke w/ the poet, activist + reggae legend about retirement, resistance, the West African renaissance, the newly-restored 1979 doc "DREAD BEAT AN BLOOD" + the wordless solo album he just finished.

The Pentagon is withholding causality and hit numbers. The CDC is withholding infection rates. The FDA is withholding information about food contamination. The EPA is withholding pollution and climate data. This corrupt administration is ALL about concealing the consequences of its incompetence.
