Toadcast #239 – The Curiocast
The Curiocast because there are indeed some odd little bits and pieces on this week’s podcast. Listen to it and you might not notice much different – it’s not exactly shocking or all that strange or anything like that, but there are most certainly a few odd little things here and there.
Geographically, we have music from Karachi, Vienna and Novosibirsk. Genre-wise, we have some of the first R&B(ish) music ever to appear on a Toadcast and then we end with seven minutes of choral folk singing performed in Hamilton Mausoleum, reputed to have the longest echo of any building in the world.
So none of it will knock you off your feet in a ‘what the flying fuck is that?‘ sort of a way, but there’s definitely some odd little bits and pieces on this week’s podcast. Which I like.

Toy’s got a sound coming from the 90s, i like it
Yeah, the nineties revival could be absolutely horrible, but there’s a lot which I might rather like. This included.

“while listening to an excellent (if a bit verbose) podcast from Song By Toad”
I am a bit late on my Toadcast listening, but wanted to let you know that I thoroughly enjoyed this one today.
Even funnier was stopping by and seeing that comment above. For me, the more verbose the better.
There is a rather cutting review on the iTunes page for it as well. Describes me as negative, unenthusiastic and not providing any context for the songs.
