Louise Gaffney of Irish new-wave ambient band Dirty Dreamer joined us to talk about what many people regard as the greatest album of the noughties, Radiohead’s Kid A. We talk about how Kid A sounded in 2000, how it sounds, how it influenced Dirty Dreamer, and we talked about making music that sounds like it’s happening in a specific location.


You can find Dirty Dreamer @dirty_dreamer_. Their debut album The Everyday in Bloom is out now. They play the Workman’s Cellar on June 2nd.
