In 1996 filmmaker Stephen Kijak released his debut narrative film, Never Met Picasso. 25 years later he returns to the genre with his homage to The Smiths, Shoplifters of the World. Set in Denver, Shoplifters follows a group of friends mourning the 1987 breakup of the British group, while another friend holds a local DJ hostage and forces him to play only The Smiths. In between the two movies, Kijak has crafted multiple music documentaries including 30th Century Man on Scott Walker and Stones in Exile, the making of the Stones’ classic Exile on Main Street album.

Black Diamond Queens, the second book from Maureen Mahon is an examination of African-American women in rock. The book is not only a fascinating study of their achievements, but also illustrates their wide influence in the genre. From Big Mama Thornton and her original version “Hound Dog” to girl group The Shirelles and of course, Tina Turner. Despite their contribution, these legends weren't always paid their dues, figuratively and/or financially. Black Diamond Queens is a beautiful celebration of the talent and struggles these women. Black Diamond Queens is available from Duke University Press, along with her first book, Right to Rock: The Cultural Politics of Race.

Soft Glas, the solo project of singer/songwriter/multi-instrumentalist Jõao Gonzalez, returns to TMT on the eve of his new release, How Strange. How Strange is the Grammy-nominee’s third full-length album and it unites the spirit of college radio, Cuban-laced rhythms and jazz-tinged instrumentation. The influences arrive effortlessly considering Jõao grew up on 2000s indie/ emo rock and his father is celebrated Cuban jazz pianist, Gonzalo Rubalcaba. His father’s 2021 Grammy-nominated ‘Best Latin Jazz Album’ Viento Y Tiempo (with Aymée Nuviola) features Jõao as the mixing engineer, post-production editor and keyboard programmer.

Neurologist Dr. Richard Cytowic is the author of multiple books on synesthesia. Synesthesia is a neurological condition where the stimulation of one of our senses leads to an automatic, involuntary triggering of one or more other senses. Musical artists such as Billy Joel, Kanye West and Stevie Wonder claim they can see colors when they hear music. Since the 70s, Dr. Cytowic has dedicated his career to what he calls a “young science” despite early criticism from his peers.

Producer Gian Stone is having a moment. A moment that is the result of years of putting in hard work. In May, he topped Billboard’s Hot 100 Producers Chart as the sole producer of Ariana Grande and Justin Bieber’s quarantine #1: “Stuck with You.” Gian is also a musician, engineer and songwriter with co-writing duties on Maroon 5’s “Girls Like You” and Jonas Brothers’ “Like It’s Christmas.” Additionally, he vocal produced Madonna (Madame X’s “Crazy” and “I Rise”) and Dua Lipa (“Physical”). You can find his name on the credits for recent hits by Katy Perry and Halsey. I first met Gian over ten years ago when he vocal edited my debut album, How to Be An Adult; produced by our mutual friend Ben Rice at his Degraw Sound studio in Brooklyn. For anyone that thinks nice guys finish last, they clearly haven't met Gian Stone.

Singer, songwriter and multi-instrumentalist Mobley had a new EP, Young and Dying in the Occident Supreme, all prepped for release until the pandemic hit. His tour-in-progress was also shelved. The EP is forthcoming with the lead single/video from it “Nobody’s Favourite” out now. As for touring, that's up in the air, but the Austin-based performer has been making the most of his time. A Home Unfamiliar, a 25-minute visual album he curated, pairs 15 musicians and 15 filmmakers and includes music from Kelsey Wilson of Wild Child, Spoon’s Jim Eno and Mobley, himself. 100% of the proceeds will benefit pandemic relief efforts. [This episode features “Nobody’s Favourite” from Young and Dying in the Occident Supreme.] On July 24, I'll be interviewing Mobley (plus a performance) with a IG LIVE edition of Talk Music Talk. 6p EST.

Queens native Richardine Bartee is always ahead of the curve when it comes to music. As the CEO (and journalist) of Grungecake, an online music blog, she relishes the championing of up and coming artists, particularly from the Afrobeats genre. That's her thing: recognizing tomorrow’s talents today. In addition to being a tastemaker, Richardine also provides A&R and publicity/content management for celebrities. [This episode features a five-song playlist hand-picked by Richardine with music from Oxlade, CKay (ft. Joeboy & Kuami), Ricky Rikkardo/Dboy Lo, Esparo and UFO Fev (ft. Styles P).
