In Our Headphones

Host Evie Stokes sits down again with Yasi Salek, the host of the podcast Bandsplain. The two dig into Salek’s love of IDM and experimental music and the mystery surrounding her latest favorite discovery, the band ear.

“They’re really collage artists…it gives me a mystical feeling when I listen to it,” Salek says, describing the group’s music.

“Ne Plus Ultra” comes from the band’s latest self-released album, Rumspringa.
