Midnight Looms 074 – AUNTY SOCIAL – April 12th 2022

On with tonight’s musical therapy session! We’ve got just an incredible act here not only to chat with our host, GOBS, but also to PERFORM inside our PLAYDEAD CULT DIY concert space. They call themselves AUNTY SOCIAL. Their music is just truly next level. It’s forward thinking INDIE POP centred around coping with mental illness. It’s uplifting and inspiring. You can dance to it, and they are just such an amazing singer. She’s brought along her producer, SAM ARION, and a bunch of ELECTRONIC GEAR. We can’t wait to hear what they do with it. The first 3rd of the program is all about HEAVY HITTERS. It starts off with some EMO and METAL from COMEBACK KID, DEADLOCK, PARENTAL PATHOLOGY, and THE WONDER YEARS. Gobs then transitions to a different kind of “heavy hitter”, with NEW MUSIC by some of the BIGGEST NAMES in modern music. Tunes from BEACH HOUSE, BONOBO, ROYKSOPP GOLDFRAPP, plus a STONER JAM care of FKA TWIGS PA SALIEU. After the performance from AUNTY SOCIAL, it’s all about COVERS! You’ll hear ELISAPIE covering WILLY THRASHER, ISKWE covering MISHA BOWER, PICASTRO covering THE VELVET UNDERGROUND, SAX SYNDRUM SEA OLEANA covering LYKKE LI, and U.S. GIRLS covering YOKO ONO. All that before we “take you gently into a new day” with a couple gorgeous new pieces from PARA PALABRAS and YOU’LL NEVER GET TO HEAVEN. Wild, wonderful, and woke. That’s MIDNIGHT LOOMS!!!
