SpaceTimeMusic
by Lyd the SBWSpaceTimeMusic is a podcast exploring the roots, shoots and branches of some of Lyd the SBW's favorite songs through samples and covers. I have always been a music lover. In it I hear love, first and foremost and just like love, it transcends time and space. Come along with me as I tumble down musical rabbit holes. And for me, that usually begins with a sample. I’ll hear a sample in a song and won’t be able to remember where it’s from. I’ll consult Papa Google and discover three other songs that are sampled in that same song and then go searching for them on a streaming service. And that’s when it happens. Through a simple search, a trail of musical cookie crumbs reveals itself to me leading to the most amazing ear-candy houses I have ever heard, sans the child-eating witch.

Summertime
17m · PublishedLyd the SBW gets into the many sounds and feelings of summer in this episode. Didn’t know the album cover of Big Brother & Holding Company featured a mammy caricature until after recording it and went to find the music for the episode. Pretty much sums up the way many consume and claim to admire the art and cultures of “others.” And yes, “Summer in the City” was first recorded by the Lovin’ Spoonful but it’s the Q version that’s funkiest and lends itself to sampling.
