solipsistic NATION: Maya

As long as I can remember, I’ve always wanted to put together one of those year’s top 10 songs or top 10 artists or albums. I’ve done nearly every conceivable thing that encourages that sort of behavior: record stores, radio stations. podcasts, blogs, etc. I’ve been given just about every platform that would allow me put the music I love on a shrine.

Since then Chevron has remained on my radar and when he sent me a copy of his live set a few months ago I knew I had to play it on solipsistic NATION. Hence, today’s show.
