Episode 034 - B. Fleischmann, Peter Bjorn And John, Broadcast, Books On Tape and Clap Your Hands Say Yeah  2007.01.18

This is the first Headphones required / Mets tes écouteurs podcast of the year, and I start up fresh with mostly new stuff. I couldn’t resist in puting some good old Broadcast to sugar things up, and a new song from Clap Your Hands Say Yeah. Here is this week’s playlist…

Voici la première baladodiffusion Headphones required / Mets tes écouteurs de l’année, et je commence surtout avec du nouveau matériel. Je n’ai par contre pas pu résister à la tentation d’insérer du Broadcast afin de sucrer le tout, et une toute nouvelle pièce de la formation Clap Your Hands Say Yeah. Voici la playlist de cette semaine…
