Cranking up the alternative underground: Dino DiMuro tackles the notoriously difficult Trout Mask Replica with a raw, unmastered Captain Beefheart cover that proves "you will always be YOU." Avery Friedman issues a glistening return single ahead of her first UK/EU tour, while Chris of Wilderness cruises through the apocalypse with paranoid electronics and burning poetics on War Horny. White Swami delivers a pharmaceutical-grade shot of off-kilter hip-hop beats and psychedelic synth magic, and Jonathan Hadley searches for self amid a lifetime of masking on Somebody Somewhere. Get Lost Cassidy Frost closes it out with a KEXP-approved tender late-night drive through the unanswered questions of everyday life.
