Last Vestige
by Last Vestige Podcast
Dan and Josh are friends that grew up listening to, playing, and comparing notes on music of all kinds. Last Vestige is their attempt to recreate the excitement of finding new music or rediscovering old favorites. Each episode Dan and Josh have a completely improvised conversation about an album one of them chose for a close listen. No notes are compared ahead of time and every album is an exercise in understanding the artist, the album, and their own musical interests a little bit better. Welcome to Last Vestige.

Dave Soldier - The People's Choice
In this episode we're discussing the musical comedy of what happens when a neuroscientist writes two songs based on surveys. It's...strange to say the least.

Koffee - Gifted
