This week on the Needle Drop, we're delving into two very different records from Rustie and La Dispute. Rustie is a Glasgow music producer whose new album, Glass Swords, is a bight, heart-pumping piece of electronica. La Dispute should also bring heartrates up, but for different reasons. These guys are a hard-hitting Michgan band specializing in melodic guitar passages and extremely poetic lyricism.

We've got those artists and more!

Federal funding is gone.

Congress has eliminated all funding for public media.

That means $2.1 million per year that Connecticut Public relied on to deliver you news, information, and entertainment programs you enjoyed is gone.

The future of public media is in your hands.

All donations are appreciated, but we ask in this moment you consider starting a monthly gift as a Sustainer to help replace what’s been lost.
