As Guest Editor’s for the month of September, Julian Casablancas+TheVoidz have taken it upon themselves to enrich our daily lives, digging into the digital crates and surfacing for our listening pleasure an array of tantalizing tracks. For this week’s mix, the boyz – consisting of Julian (vocals, guitar), Jeramy “Beardo” Gritter (guitar), Amir Yaghmai (guitar), Jacob “Jake” Bercovici (bass guitar, synthesizers), Alex Carapetis (drums, percussion), Jeff Kite (keys) and Shawn Everett (production) – demonstrate their exquisitely eclectic tastes, running the gamut from afrobeat to ambient, from space rock to ethereal electronic. Enjoy!
