Started the show with a tribute to Chromatics, who broke up this week. They were probably my introduction to the label Italians Do It Better, via the compilation After Dark. Their album Kill For Love hit me like a ton of bricks and started an obsession with the band and the label. They appeared on the soundtrack for the latest Twin Peaks event (and on the show itself). The album Dear Tommy may never get released, but one can hope.
New music this week from Liars, Glor1a, Yves Tumor, Torres, and others. Good morning.
