In this episode, we hear from KEXP’s queen of psychedelia and host of Astral Plane, DJ Jewel. She shares the mellow yet mind-bending tracks that have been easing her into shorter and darker days.

Music Director Chris Sanley then shares a song that’s been bringing her a sense of calm amidst chaos.

Nice Biscuit - “SOS”
Nolan Potter - “Dig Me As I Am”
