Beyond picking things that sound good, we here at the Hot Rats Listening Party are equally as concerned with why things sound like they do. Join the Party each week for a different theme and songs that explore that theme – across style, genre, and time. One week we might look at the way musicians translate literature into song, and the next it might be an examination of the 60s nostalgia wave that rocked the 1980s. One week may explore funky time signatures, and the next the saxophone across history. From classical to punk, soul to metal – nothing is off limits. Music reflects humanity in that it’s all connected, so you never know what you’ll hear. You’ll just have to tune in to find out!
