Friday I'm In Love: New Releases for June, 2025

As per usual, I'm all over the stylistic and geographical map this month with new music from Belgium (2X), UK, USA, Austria, Sweden, Estonia, Italy and a bunch from Australia. There's some poetry, a remix of The Cure by Orbital, some foul language and lots of great new music to make your earholes ring and your feet to dance.

EDBZ Live with Bret and Meagan

Twice a year I travel south to San Diego and while there do a show with Meagan Masingill, former host of Meagan Dreams and my former cohost with Greg Peters for Vapour Trail Live.
 
We're usually outside but it was cool and drizzly. Of course today, the following day, it is sunny and breezy. Oh well. We still had a fun time catching up, having sandwiches and playing songs from bands at Cruel World, Swervedriver, requests and tunes from the Eardrum Buzz Radio library. And of course I played Prince. I unsuccessfully attempted to pronounce Welsh and Italian, we both had microphone issues, the show recording started late, but none of that mattered. We hope you have as much fun listening as we had playing these tunes. So let's party like it's 1999 and enjoy!
