It Took 19 Studios and Nearly Bankrupted a Record Label\nThe album was recorded in a staggering 19 different studios over a two-year period, with a rumored cost of £250,000. The painstaking production process caused tensions with Creation Records, whose co-owner, Alan McGee, ultimately dropped the band due to Kevin Shields’ relentless perfectionism.\n\n2. The “Glide Guitar” Technique Redefined the Instrument\nKevin Shields’ signature sound—achieved by wiggling the guitar’s tremolo bar as he strummed—created the dreamlike “glide guitar” effect that became synonymous with Loveless. It’s an illusion of layers, but in reality, the album has fewer guitar tracks than most demos.\n\n3. The Drums Were Almost Entirely Sampled\nDue to drummer Colm Ó Cíosóig’s health issues, most drum tracks were created from samples of his playing. Only two songs feature live drumming: “Only Shallow” (the opening drums might be the clearest sound you’ll hear all album) and “Come in Alone.” Shields meticulously constructed the rest from scratch, a painstaking yet groundbreaking process. https://www.thatericalper.com/2024/12/30/5-surprising-facts-about-my-bloody-valentines-loveless/", "location": 1, "location_name": "Default", "play_type": "trackplay" }, { "id": 3551771, "uri": "https://api.kexp.org/v2/plays/3551771/?format=api", "airdate": "2025-09-11T16:40:16-07:00", "show": 64535, "show_uri": "https://api.kexp.org/v2/shows/64535/?format=api", "image_uri": "", "thumbnail_uri": "", "song": "31", "track_id": null, "recording_id": null, "artist": "Vondré", "artist_ids": [ "03ad8b78-212d-470a-9691-4ad0afe20f43" ], "album": "31", "release_id": null, "release_group_id": null, "labels": [], "label_ids": [], "release_date": null, "rotation_status": null, "is_local": false, "is_request": false, "is_live": false, "comment": "One of DJ Albina Cabrera's fav bands from Mexico City!\nhttps://www.kexp.org/podcasts/in-our-headphones/\n--\nWatch a Live on KEXP Full Performance from March 2023 here: https://youtu.be/NxuEczAIU9Y?si=u5b6EgFd_x6AfWk-", "location": 1, "location_name": "Default", "play_type": "trackplay" }, { "id": 3551770, "uri": "https://api.kexp.org/v2/plays/3551770/?format=api", "airdate": "2025-09-11T16:36:15-07:00", "show": 64535, "show_uri": "https://api.kexp.org/v2/shows/64535/?format=api", "image_uri": "", "thumbnail_uri": "", "comment": "This week's In Our Headphones!\n\nKEXP DJ Albina Cabrera joins host Evie Stokes to talk about Latin American Heritage month and KEXP’s special ‘Aqui y Ahora’ programming surrounding it.

Organized by radio DJ Steve Dahl, it invited fans to bring disco records to be blown up on the field between games. The stunt drew more than 50,000 people—far exceeding expectations—and spiraled out of control. After the explosion, thousands of attendees stormed the field, causing chaos and forcing the White Sox to forfeit the second game. The event became a cultural flashpoint, symbolizing the backlash against disco but also drawing criticism for its undertones of racism and homophobia, since disco was closely tied to Black, Latino, and LGBTQ communities.\n--\n“We wanted to reclaim that space and make it a playing field where all are free,” Say She She explained. “So we turned it into a discodelic dancefloor with our words, and every four on the floor drum beat is hopefully a stitch sewn.”\n--\nHere's a Guardian interview with the trio published September 5th: https://tinyurl.com/58w6x39n", "location": 1, "location_name":
