Polyrhythmics - "Clydesdale" from the 2023 self-released album Filter System

Now on their 13th year as a band, Seattle's own psych-funk septet Polyrhythmics released their latest LP last fall titled Filter System. 

“When I listen to this music I feel comforted and excited at the same time,” saxophonist Art Brown said of the album in a press statement. “I really feel like we've created some beautiful musical spaces that can transport you. And in that way I think it can provide a source of inspiration, and maybe revitalize the hearts and minds of folks who listen.”

To kick off this late October episode, Atticus brings us into the spirit of his favorite holiday with a Chelsea Wolfe track remixed by Boy Harsher - a perfect goth/dark wave pairing for Halloween. He also shares some dizzying psych-pop, his favorite lines from a singer-songwriter with “goofy and smart” lyricism, and the story of how he first discovered The Cramps’ Halloween classic. Atticus hosts a Variety Mix every Friday morning (aka late Thursday night) from 1-5am and will be doing a Halloween special the night of Oct 31/Nov 1.

We also hear an honest, heart wrenching song from former Girls-frontman Christopher Owens, recommended by Music Director Chris Sanley.

Songs featured:
Chelsea Wolfe - “House of Self-Undoing (Boy Harsher Remix)"
Dummy - “Nine Clean Nails” 
MJ Lenderman- “Wristwatch"
The Cramps - “Goo Goo Muck”
Christopher Owens - "Do You Need a Friend” 

Listen to the full songs on KEXP's "In Our Headphones 2024" playlist on Spotify or the “What's In Our Headphones” playlist on YouTube.

Listen to Atticus every Friday from 1-5 am, or anytime on the 2-week archive, at KEXP.org or the KEXP App.

They also talk about their experience helping those struggling with addiction, and how grief is an act of love.
