Strange Week in Music
on the
Strangeways Radio Blog
When The Sun Hits is now contributing to a weekly blog feature on the Strangeways Radio blog called Strange Week in Music. The full article can be found on the Strangeways blog; WTSH cross posts it only partially, with a link to the full article provided.
Strange Week in Music gives each Strangeways DJ an opportunity to highlight one track that is related to his/her show that week; the article will include information, links, images, a video/stream of the tracks and where they can be purchased. You can think of it as Strangeways' Week at a Glance.
If you are new to Strangeways Radio, or are curious about other station shows aside from WTSH, this weekly feature on the Strangeways blog will be the perfect introduction. Below is WTSH's latest contribution.

DIIV
(pronounced “dive”) is an atmospheric and autumnally-charged Brooklyn
four-piece fronted by Z. Cole Smith. DIIV craft a sound that is at once
familial and frost-bitten. Indebted to classic kraut, dreamy Creation-records
psychedelia, and the primitive-crunch of late-80s Seattle, the band walk a divisive
yet perfectly fused patch of classic-underground influence. Oshin is DIIV’s debut LP on Captured Tracks.
