Today we introduce the new hope of Burger Records, Mattiel Brown, from Atlanta Georgia and Cojones from Zagreb, Croatia. Two new exciting power pop records came out in Canada, it’s by Chris Church and it’s called Limitations of Source Tape and in Portland OR, by Mo Troper, entitled Exposure and Response. We also welcome back Stereo Soul Future from Boston with their new single. Also, First Base are back with the new record. But the most exciting new thing this week is the new EP by Terry Chambers and Colin Moulding of XTC. Their new duet is called TC&I. This episode is dedicated to Bora OslovÄan, bass player of PekinÅ¡ka Patka who passed away recently in the age 57.
What a year for Matthew Melton. He put out four albums, one with Warm Soda, two with Dream Machine and one new solo.

And one of those Dream Machine albums is also new. We check that out in today’s show and wish them better luck with the new label. We also have new music from The Golden Boys (also from Austin) and Steelism. We also introduce The Hooten Hallers. But the biggest new album this week is the brand new one from Harlan T. Bobo. It’s called Hector, The History of Violence, and it’s perfect. At the end of this episode, we say goodbye to Johnny Hallyday who passed away last week after a long battle with colon cancer.
