On this episode of Songs of Our Lives, it’s Molto Ohm! (aka Matteo Liberatore!) Matteo’s Molto Ohm project has been revelatory, showing such an incredible synthesis of his varying approaches and techniques. His latest record, “Reality Pills,” is somehow both infectious and off-putting, which, of course, makes me love it even more. We talk about its background and creation before getting into Antonio Carlos Jobim, DJ Rashad, Adriano Celentano, Charli XCX, Tracy Chapman, Mina, Radiohead + more!

On this episode of Songs of Our Lives, it’s Ben Seretan! What a joy this episode was to record. Ben’s the best. His new album, “Sunbeam of No Illusion,” with John Thayer is one of my early favorites so far this year. After talking about that, we get into all kinds of whimsy and fun with Arthur Russell, Sinai Vessel, Wham!, Clarence Carter, Celine Dion, Prince, Pet Shop Boys, and plenty more!
