CCLaP Podcast 31: Monthly Music Special

CCLaP Monthly Music Special for January 2009

It's Monday, which means it's time for another episode of the CCLaP Podcast. Today: It's the January edition of CCLaP's monthly music special, wherein I share some of the best and most interesting bands I myself have been coming across for free online in the last four weeks, kind of like a college radio show but without actually needing a college radio station. Today's episode features 12 musicians and lasts 48 minutes; and don't forget, if you download the enhanced MP4 version linked to below and listen on an iPod (or simply subscribe to CCLaP's iTunes channel), chapters and links and images will be at your disposal too!

Today's music came from original recommendations by: Discobelle; fluo kids; IndieFeed; KCRW; KEXP; Minnesota Public Radio; modyfier; Pitchfork; What To Wear During An Orange Alert; and as always, suggestions from listeners like you (cclapcenter [at] gmail.com).

Musicians featured in today's episode:
Stardust / Poj Masta
Faded Paper Figures
Dirty Projectors / David Byrne / Dark Was the Night
Holly Conlan
Wild Beasts
The Hopefuls
