48 Under Par — the new 48-track double CD from CJ Redan and Producer Carl Petzelt — spans over three hours of genre-shifting material, intentionally sequenced from the shortest to the longest track.

From raw, intimate folk sketches to fully formed arrangements blending Congolese rumba, country rock, and garage textures, the collection offers a wide emotional and tonal palette — ideal for sync across drama, documentary, and creative advertising.

Built from decades of sessions, outtakes, and new recordings, 48 Under Par captures a rare mix of spontaneity and cinematic mood. Think of it as a living archive of songs and cues — each one ready to find its visual counterpart.

"shapeshifter" ep out 12/10

[bothkindsofmusic]

Is this thing on? Been a lonnnnnng while, but I want to test the waters to see if there's an audience for country music on Tumblr 2023.

I've been making a weekly playlist in lieu of a radio show for a couple months now. Figure that'd be a good place to start.

If you like country music that's outside the mainstream, check out this playlist. It's full of new and recent releases. I kick it off with a classic country song and send it off with Willie Nelson. In between you'll find music from artists making country music in their own way with their own style. While the music changes every week, the playlist stays in the same spot. Plus, there's an archive where I retire the old playlists.

If you find something you like, let me know and give the artists a follow on instagram.

IN A MINUTE:

A_NEW_MUSICAL_EXPRESSS…

“NOT IDEAL” is the latest single from AFTERNOON BIKE RIDE’s forthcoming LP titled ‘Glossover’ (2/10 @fofmusic-blog) & it finds the Montreal-based trio of multi-instrumentalists Lia Kurihara, David Tanton & Éloi Le Blanc-Ringuette coping as best as they can over a minimal bout of calmly blissed IndiePop.

//

ALEX LAHEY is here w/ a new standalone single titled “SHIT TALKIN’” (Liberation Recs) & it finds the Melbourne-based artist sipping some Coopers Sparkling, stomping the fuzz pedals & teaming up w/ John Mark Nelson to talk that ish across 3+ mins of power_popped IndieRawk.

//

CONVINCED FRIEND are here w/ “SAFEWAY,” the final single from their forthcoming self-titled LP (11/11 @reliefmaprecords) & it finds the Providence-based trio of A.S. Wilson (guitar/vox), Bradford Krieger (bass) & Casey Belisle (drums) bringing that bottom of the bottle dread across a 3:39 clip of twanged AltCountry.

//

“BY DESIGN” is a choice cut from NOTOFTHISWORLD’s brand new EP titled ‘Regalia’ (Suburban Creeps Recs) & it finds Philly-based duo bringing their blown-out, noise-tinged & cold_waving brand of minimalist PostPunk.

//

SOFT CULT are here w/ “DRAIN,” the lead single from their forthcoming EP titled ‘See You in the Dark’ (TBA: Spring) & it finds the Canadian duo of Mercedes & Phoenix Arn-Horn living their “music for mall goths 🤍🖤” mantra across 3+ mins of soft_grunging AltRawk.

//

“BUSINESS INC.” is the closing track on STUCCO’s latest release titled “ep1” (Midwest Debris) & it finds the Calgary-based outfit rhythmically exploring “the wicked, crumbling metropolis of our prairie city turned corporate theme park” across a 3:28 of agitatedly angular post_punk.

The Girls + Ani have been playing “Angel From Montgomery” as part of their encore set these past few shows, so let’s #tbt to 1992. #NanciGriffith was working on her debut album, and these four incredible artists showed up to lend a hand. L-R Emily, John Prine, Amy, Nanci and Odetta. What a glorious session this must have been! #indigogirls #amyray #emilysaliers #johnprine #fprine #angelfrommontgomery #odetta #othervoicesotherrooms #songwriters #songwritingroyalty #americana #folk #altcountry https://www.instagram.com/p/CULYInKlizs/?utm_medium=tumblr
