I thought you might like to see Franck onstage as Triptone, with his band, in this “teaser”: I was looking through the YouTube videos for Lila Rose and I found this video of her sitting on a porch singing with Mama Crow with an acoustic guitar, and I thought it was very cool.

Enjoy the new track from Artemis!
It’s time for a new episode — another hour of mostly chilled trip hop, downtempo, and ambient. But, as usual, to keep you from getting too sleepy, there’s always a little bit of an edge. So this episode kicks off with Lost Soul Refuge’s “Amphitheatre.” We’ve also thrown in a couple of cumbia tracks and a nice, blunted new track from Crookram. But there’s plenty of relaxing grooves, as well. Don’t miss the new track from Artemis, whose new album, “Auralei,” just released this month!
