My name is Quentin. I've got my brother Travis with me as always. And this is episode two for our year-end favorites of 2020 countdown. So, yeah, just as a reminder, just to put this back out there. These are not in any particular order because we are trying to do this thing where we're going to treat it like a spontaneous mix tape or DJ set or something like that, right? So I'm going to play something and then Quentin's going to pick something from his remaining picks. And I have no idea what Travis is about to play. Yeah, this is spontaneous. Yeah, last week I kicked it off.

Right. And I played three songs. Travis played two. Yeah, and I, you know, try my best to pick matching songs, but, you know, it is what it is. But I think with this next one, Q, my first pick today, I think you're going to, I think you're going to be able to flow with this one. I'm ready, bro. Let's do it. So, you know, Q, there are certain things in life that are, that are, you know, without a doubt, right?

Like, for example, the sky's blue. The sky's blue. I was about to say that, dude. Water is wet. And one thing, I'm almost fairly certain of you, is that you're going to fucking love this song, okay? All right, dude. So I would classify these guys as psychedelic shoegaze. Mmm, yummy.

I don't know what kind of a name this is, but their name, the first part of the name is fine, Karen, K-A-I-R-O-N. then it's semicolon i r s e exclamation mark what the hell is this dude that's what i'm saying there's a semicolon and an exclamation mark so um we're going to start this off just fucking at a high high energy level i'm already pumped could you tell i was shaking my hand dude because my focal started vibrating there all right so cue this this band like i said their name's Karen, I-R-S-E. The album is called Polly Somme. Came out on September 11th of this year.

And this song is called And Bat N-N-N-N. That's my jam, dude. I will never get tired of this flavor of psych-rock ever. Yeah. I knew you would love it, dude. I just knew it. So this is like the perfect, like you said, psych-rock, right? but shoe gaze in all the all the right ways too it's like a perfect blend of shoegaze and

psychedelic got that wall of sound wall of sound and i i love the like the contrast of the vocals you know the soft breathy classic kind of shoegaze vocals plus that wall of sound and the psychedelic flare that they added to it like it's a great great like balance you know what i mean yeah and that drum beat that drumbeat is that, I mean, that perfect, like, right in that psych rock pocket. I don't know why. Like, there's a certain kind of beat that goes along with this style of music that I'm a huge fan of it.

It's usually pretty simple and it always just keeps driving forward in the song. Yeah, dude. I love it. Love it. Yeah. So that whole record, again, it's called Polly Somm. It is in that same, that, that pocket, right? It's kind of like Team and Paula's brand of, of Psychedel.

Yeah, like here and there, you know, on that. Travis, I'm so glad you said that, brother. Oh, man, what a perfect transition. Now, I knew you had Tame and Pala on your list, so I figured you would play him after this track as a good flow. So, yeah, how can we talk about 2020 and new records without talking about Tame and Pala's very highly anticipated records? So, Q, tell us what you got here.

Yeah, so. This was early 2020, man. I was still working in the office. This was very early. I was still going into work every day. I remember my buddy, one of my coworkers, who's also a team and Pala fan, where you kind of geeked out about it. Let me see if I can pull up the date here.

Yeah, this was very beginning of the year. Dude. God, now you're going to make me get depressed here because we had team and Pala tickets, man. I know, dude. Oh, my God. I'm sorry. That's right. So my internet.

I swear to go. Man, I would be better off just using my phone. Okay, here we go. Yeah, so we're talking about the slow rush. And this was Tame and Paula's latest album came out in February of this year. And I listened to it as soon as it came out. And so it's no secret, dude, that we're huge Kevin Parker fans. I'm glad that you said his name because it's, you have.

to like you have to, Tame and Paula is Kevin Parker, right? So it's like, it's good to remind people like, this is, this is Kevin Parker really, you know. This is all Kevin Parker. If you see Tame and Paula live, it's Kevin Parker with all of his friends. All of his friends from, his friends are tagging along to, to pull off a live show. Yeah. Yeah. Um, I tried really hard to leave off the obvious choices on my favorites list. You know, Tame and Paula being an obvious favorite. Same with the strokes, I left off fleet boxes. But this song made it on the list because, so this is the first track on the slow rush. And when I heard it, dude, I just, I got so excited.

It just made it obvious. Like, all right, this is going to be another amazing Tame Impala record. And Kevin is continuing to evolve with this sound. And I'm so excited to hear the rest of this album. And this, dude, this song is easily, it might be one of my favorites, like in the top five favorite songs of the year. It's just something about this song. Yeah. I mean, you know, with Tim and Paula, you know that you're going to be taken on a journey, right?

So this is like the first track. So this is like how he chose to start this record's journey off for the listener. Yeah. And like you said, it's Tim and Paula. So like when you, as all of us did, who have been sort of anxious, awaiting the next Tame Impala record to drop. Like, the, the, the excitement level is so high, like, when you hit play, you know, because you're like, all right, what am I in store for here, you know?

Like, what could, what could he, where could he possibly go from currents, you know, like, what's next? Okay, so here is the first track on Tame Impala's album, The Slow Rush. This song is called One More Year. Yeah, you can't help but move around the room, dude. I know, man. And, of course, you had to play it to, like, that was a four-minute clip because we had to get back into the, when he brings it all back in like that at the end. Back into that groove.

Yeah, man. There's just something about, Kevin Parker, I mean, we did an episode on, on, on, inner speaker. Yeah, we did inner speaker. Yeah, so, you know, we talked about him as an artist and all that stuff on that episode. But, yeah, he's just, he's, he's, um, he's. what is it like a, you know, triple threat or whatever they call it, where it's like, his vocals are fucking amazing. His lyrics are great.

His lyrics are great. His, the way he composes his songs and his melodies and stuff like that, it's like, he takes you on a journey. Every song is its own. I hate to use such a cliche, but you know what I'm saying. Oh, yeah. It's a trip, you know? He's taking you on a trip, really.

For sure. Yeah. And so I listened to this album when it first came out, and then I just kind of show. I yelled it and forgot about it. And then I reconnected with it during the lockdown, the first go-around, you know, and it was probably April or May. And the lyrics struck me different, dude, with the circumstances. Now, again, he wrote this well before COVID hit.

But these lyrics, dude, I don't know why it just kind of like I could relate to it. at the very end of the first verse he says, we're on a roller coaster stuck on its loop-de-loop. First off, I love that. Yeah, I love the way he delivers the line, too. Yeah, we're on a roller coaster stuck on its loop-de-loop. Because what we did one day on a whim slowly becomes all we do. That's what it felt like to me, dude.

Every day, I'm like, well, what am I going to do today? Oh, I'm stuck in the house. I'm going to do the same. thing. One thing that we did on the whim, now this is pretty much all we do now. Yeah, man. The whole year's been, we're all stuck on this loop-de-loop. We're on a roller coaster that feels like we're never going to get off this thing, right? Yeah. And then down here he says, but it's okay. I think there's a way, why don't we just say one more year? Not worrying if I get the right amount of sleep, not caring if we do the same thing every week. Good stuff, dude. And yeah, it just, it just fits so well.

with like our circumstances. Yeah, and it's funny because nobody saw this. Obviously, he wrote these songs. Yeah. Who knows when. So like, it's just funny how lyrics can be interpreted. Same with, what's the name of the new strokes album, the new abnormal? Yeah.

Anyways. So that is a no-brainer. Tame Impala will always find a way on a top song list for me. In a year that Tame Impala puts out a record, It will, it will show up on a no-filler countdown recap episode at some point. I was so excited to hear it. And it was funny. Like, the first line, he says, do you remember we were standing here a year ago?

I mean, it's been a few years in between currents and slow rush. But I thought of it as like, okay, you remember that also album I released a few years ago? Come on back, baby. Here we are. Yeah, and it was an interesting record. We could, we could probably do an episode on. the record. Yeah, there's other songs in this album that almost made it on this list. Yeah. All right. Anyways, man, moving on. So passing it back to you, brother, what you got for us?

Okay, I think this is going to be actually a pretty good flow from that song. So here's the thing. I brought this guy to an episode back in September as my What You Heard. It's this vapor wave artist that goes by the name Equip. And if I were to pick an album, one album that represented, like, my, like music in 2020 for me, it would be his record that came out in 2016 called I dreamed of a palace in the sky. I had to find a way to showcase equip on my 2020 list. So did you write him a letter and say, hey, brother, could you like release a single this year just for me? I did actually write him on band camp and asked him if he was, I asked him if they were going to repress that record because it's sold out on vinyl.

So I did, I did talk to him. This guy is a cosplay king. I think his whole life is maybe a cosplay. It's a good thing that you brought that up. So yes, if you look him up images of the sky, he does cosplay, but that is a character

that he's created. So like I said, right, with that record that I mentioned, it was a concept album about a like a Japanese RPG video game that never existed, right? So there's this other artist

that kind of runs in the same circles as him. It goes by R23X. And they have started putting out, they have this project that they're collaborating on, which is the name that they're going to go by is kind of funny. It's called the Nameless Dreamers. R23X also has his own character that he's kind of come up with. It's super nerdy.

Okay. Let's just put that out there. But hey, nothing but. respect, you know. Yeah, so exactly. So, all right. So we're going to listen to a song that they collaborated on called airship theme, parentheses, fast air travel.

So think about the name of that, right? Airship theme. Kind of similar to that record I talked about by equip, some of the names, they seem like they would be the names of like a level in a game that you would play or like something that happens, like, for example, fast air travel, right? So imagine you're playing a video game and there's a cutscene where you're, traveling by air or something like that. This is the song you might hear on this, you know,

fictional video game that doesn't exist. Anyway, so we're going to listen to this. It's called Airship Theme, Fast Air Travel. It is a single by R23X and Equip. That's great, dude. Yeah, I'm looking forward to the rest of the record that they're going to put out together. It's a lot going on there. And it's, like, it makes you wonder,

like what am I listening? What parts of this are sampled? You know, what parts of this are actually recorded, you know, instruments that they're using? Well, yeah, this is the, yeah, I mean, that's equip's whole thing, right? He's, here we go, Q. I'm going to say the word, hypnagogic. He uses the same equipment that, that, um, video game composers may have been using, you know, back in the 90s or something like that for some of these RPGs.

that came out. Obviously, there's more to it than that, but he is, some of those sounds you're hearing sound like, you know, a video game score, something like that. And I'm honestly, I haven't admittedly listened to R23x by himself. He's actually collaborated with Equip on other songs. So I don't know what, what he sounds like independently of Equip, but that's kind of, they're both in the same vein of that sort of lo-fi hypnecognogic. There it is. There it is. have aagogic pop vapor wave even, but they're not vapor wave like most vapor wave. You know what I mean? They're in this other niche.

But anyway, I just, I love anything that Equip does. I'm a huge fan of his. So I just wanted to make sure I could pay my respects to the man, even though the record that I really fell in love with this year came out in 2016. But anyway, that's a great track. I love that track. I'm excited to see what else they put out. All right, Q, I'm going to throw it back at you.

what you got for us here. Before we jump into our next pick, let's take a quick break. All right, dude, I've been excited to share some music from this artist since I first heard her album earlier this year.

So this is an electronic music artist. She goes by Yeiji. Yaiji? That is actually part of her real name. Her name's Kathy. Kathy Yaiji Lee. Um, she is a Korean American. She's born in New York.

She's a really unique electronic artist. Like this is one of the albums for me that I would put in like the top five as far as like most interesting, like unique just kind of threw me for a loop when I first heard it. So her album is called What We Drew. It came out in April. And, um, it's, it's another one of those. examples of kind of I mean a collective in a way

she has a lot of her friends and fellow artists that collaborate with her on this album yeah so there's a lot of songs on this record that really stuck with me through the year and just quite a few songs I could have picked but this is one of my favorites on

the record I mean of course it is that's why it's on this list but yeah man I think I think it's going to flow well from your equip song. So here is a song from Yiji's album from April of this year, What We Drew. This song is called When I Grow Up.

Man, that was awesome, dude. Like you said, like really grabs your attention, you know. Yeah, really different, dude. And like, this is an album that you really got to listen to with a good sound system because the way it's mixed, dude, the bass just kind of vibrates the whole room. Yeah. The majority of the album. Yeah, there's elements of like, of hip hop a little bit in there. Mm-hmm.

Yeah, I like her, I like the way she loops the beats and her, she uses her vocals as another instrument. The funny thing is like when I saw the album art on your screen, I thought we were in store for another psychedelic band because it looks like even her name, the script, it's not even a script, it's like a, that display font. It almost reminds me of the artist that did all those yes album covers. Yeah, it does. And that's why I thought it was going to be like the psychedelic kind of. Prog rock stuff. Not that yes was psychedelic, but sure, sure, sure. But yeah.

Yeah, man. Really great album. And like I said, dude, from track to track, this shit holds your attention. Really unique stuff. I'm really excited to hear what else she's going to be bringing to the table here. So this is her debut? She's been releasing little EPs and singles for the last couple of years. But yeah, this is her first full angle.

Cool. So, yeah. Again, the artist is Yaiji. The album is what we drew And that song was When I Grow Up All right Travis Time to take us on home What you got for us

All right So Q A little band called Real Estate You and I have been familiar with them For a while now We covered them on our music blog Back when they First started

Which was like 2009 Is when they first started Making music together Man, I could have sworn they were around for way longer than that, but I guess not, dude. You're right. I mean, we did the music blog over a decade ago, which is insane. Fuck me. But yeah.

Anyway, I fell in love with the record that came out in 2011 called Days. That's the one that I really sunk my teeth at two. Me too. Yeah, a lot of great stuff on there. So these guys are best described as like a dream pop surf rock kind of. They were in that vein, right? And 2011 was when all of that stuff was coming out, right? And they do it in all the right ways, man.

They're not, it's not a carbon copy of all the same shit that was coming out around that. Right. It's unique enough. Yeah, that's right. They have their own kind of signature sound. But, you know, I think with them more so than the other bands that were doing this back then, they kind of tapped into that like 60s jangly rock kind of sound too in some ways, in some of the songs.

But anyway, so this is their fifth record that they put out. this year. And this was two weeks after Tame Impala's new record came out. So it was February 28th. It looks like they collaborated with Sylvan Esso. I'm a big fan of her. Yeah, there's a single that came out called Paper Cup where they collaborated with Sylvan.

But anyway, there's one song in particular that really stood out to me on this record. And we're going to have to split it into two parts because you have to hear the solo that happens at the end. Okay. But this is going to slow it down a little bit from the rest of the songs that we've talked about today. But what I like about this song is that it's, and I think this record, they did some more sort of like, you know, the way they put it, like this was their fifth record. They've been together for over a decade. So their last one came out in 2017.

His wife was pregnant. He was struggling with and asking like, do I continue real estate? Like, do we keep going with this? And he's just been working on these songs. kind of slowly, you know, of the last three years. So like it's, you know, they wanted to take some risks. They wanted to do some different things. And I think this song is kind of an example of that because it's almost like a progressive rock song. Um, so yeah, we're going to play this song called also a butt. It's classic real estate, but like it is. Yeah. Yeah, I like how

it is almost like a miniature prog rock song, you know, like right, exactly. All these different directions in one song, but it's not dry, it doesn't drag on for nine minutes, you know. Right, right. So what's interesting about this track is that this is the first real estate song where it was primarily written and sung by the guitarist. So that's not the main singer that we're used to. His name is Julian Lynch. So one thing I wanted to ask you, Q, because I know you're more of a, uh, be a

Beach Boys fan than me. Wouldn't you see that real estate, the way that they have, that they do their vocal harmonies, is kind of reminiscent of some Beach Boy stuff. Absolutely, yeah. And let me, can I just, I feel like I need to clarify something. Yeah. Now that you said that about me and the Beach Boys. I, I don't know if I would call myself a Beach Boys fan, but there are a handful of Beach Boys songs

from, like, right before Brian Wilson went. totally insane. Yeah. That I really like. But yeah, and it is, I, I, dude, I, I could go the rest of my life without hearing their, their surfs up. Sure. Era, you know.

Yeah. Right. But yeah, no, the way that Brian Wilson, um, and I feel like he's probably the one that orchestrated all the harmonies. Yeah. You know, the rest of the guys did their part. But yeah, that's what I love about Noah Lennox or Panda Bear, how he, and he's harmonizing with himself.

But he taps into that Brian Wilson harmonizing. And I just love it. That's one of my favorite things about a panda bear song. But yeah, you're right. It's definitely that it's got that same flavor of harmonizing. Yeah, I've always thought the real estate in all of this stuff that they've done. I've kind of tapped into that style of harmonizing. All right, let's skip to the end here.

I just wanted to play because there is a really cool guitar. And it's not surprising that Julian the guitar player, wrote this song because he's like, let me sneak in this bad ass guitar solo at the end. All right, so let's listen to this guitar solo to close us out here. Yeah, dude, that really is like a pocket size prog rock song. It was like a Cliff Notes version of like a Jerry Garcia guitar solo or something, but it didn't last for 20 minutes. I mean, it's, yeah, I mean, it's a jazz, right?

I mean, that's a jazz guitar cell. It's like an indie rock jazz fusion or something like that, which you don't hear very often. But yeah, I thought that was kind of interesting. That stood out to me on the record. And I will say, not to, I mean, I guess I don't have to do this, but I guess I will. The record as a whole, I was pretty unimpressed with. But this song is in the middle of the album, and it just goes to show, dude.

You got to listen to, if you're a fan of an artist and they put out a record, you got to listen to the whole thing because you're going to miss perhaps the one song that's really good and worth hearing, right? So you got to stay committed. Yeah. Dude, I'm glad you said that, man, because it's what we preach on No Fillard. It's what we're, the basis of this entire podcast is, you know, yeah, discovering the hidden gyms, the non-singles that go unnoticed a lot of times on record. Right. So anyway, yeah.

So that was real estate. And the record is called the main thing came out in February of this. year. And that's going to wrap up this episode of our 2020 countdown. So we'll have three more after this. Yeah, so that's our five for this week. But we got to close out with another favorite 2020 moment in music. That's right. So last week, we had Tom York's performance of plasticine figures on the Jimmy Fallon show. So we decided in addition to our five picks each episode, we're going to bring a favorite musical moment from the year, meaning like, you know, a performance like that that happened on Jimmy Fallon or

something that may have happened on YouTube or something, you know, something basically that probably wouldn't have happened had it not been for the strange situation that we find ourselves in as a globe in 2020, right, the pandemic, and how it actually. brought some really cool moments to music that probably wouldn't have happened otherwise. So, Q, what is our, what was our pick for this week? Do we even, do we even know? I got it, bro. Okay.

Let's talk about Ireland, Oia, and the quarantine at Algonzo. I want to talk about this album and the circumstances that led to its birth. another thing that's no surprise to anyone that listens to no filler. We are massive Ireland-OIA fans. He is one half of the folk duo Simon and Garfunkel 2.0. He's part of Kings of Convenience, and he does a lot of solo stuff. He's also in a band called The Wattest Boy Live. and he ended up releasing an album this year called Quarantine at El Gonzo

and the title of the album is exactly what it is and how it came to be, right? So yeah, so the story is they, they being Ireland and this guy named Sebastian Mastat were booked to play this festival in Mexico, right? So this was back in March and they had shown up to this like resort or something that or something that they were staying in in Mexico City. And then the festival was canceled because of COVID-19. But here they were in this space together and they found their way into. So, okay, I said resort.

It was this hotel called the Hotel Algonzo, which is, you know, the name of this record is quarantine at Algonzo. Apparently there's this recording studio or something like that in this hotel or this space that they were able to, you know, kind of turn into a makeshift studio. And yeah, so it was a spontaneous album that was put together due to the circumstances that they found themselves. And they wrote some songs that just kind of threw together. And so again, we know definitively that this record would not exist had it not been for COVID-19. And it produced some of this really great, beautiful music. Such a great album, dude. And there's a lot of like just fun, lighthearted songs on here.

You know, you can tell that they had fun with it. There's even a song at the very end of the record, if I'm not mistaken. Yeah. Sung by a woman named Clara Sebrion. and she works at the hotel, right? So they just pulled her in and had her record a song with them. I don't know if she works at the hotel, but she... Well, the song is called Key Card, and it's all about...

Yeah, it was just, like, the lyrics are about, like, she's calling the front desk, her key card's not working or something like that, right? But again, like, just funny stuff that you maybe spontaneously put together if you're stuck in a hotel in quarantine, you know what I mean, and you're writing a song. Anyway, really cool stuff. So yeah, we got a song to play as it's going to close us out, Q. I was going to play Wipe Out the first track because it's a goofy, fun song. And I don't think, so it's either Aerland or Sebastian that you hear singing on these songs.

It's mostly just them to. I think Sebastian's the one that sings Wipe Out. Yeah, it is Mishat. Yeah. So he's the one singing. All right, Q, so that'll close us out in the meantime.

I'll be the first one. The first one out there. I'll be gliding. Oh, my God. Surfing is so cool. in the morning when I paddle out it's true No one else is there The white water is massive

It's much like a brick wall The waves are giant monsters They lift me and I fall My board behind me on a beach It's spinning me around I can get up to breathe a folks I am not a water ball For a second it gets calm

Calm, I just get sucked into the sea, and the next one hammers on my head immediately. I was the first one out there this morning. The first one out there on the way.
