Hosted by LUPE, RECENTS is the radio equivalent of a photo dump. A show that emerges out of all the deliberate piles of vinyl on the floor; the converted playlists from multiple streaming libraries; cassettes with no download code; FLACs ripped from the promo CDs; the browser tab groups; favorited tweets of just a YouTube link; the little unmute button on the Instagram slideshow clips; record label mailing lists that keep going to spam; and the new-used arrivals bin at the shop in the middle of nowhere that’s still somehow overpriced. RECENTS is an ode to, and embrace of, the randomness that comes from hoarding all genres and decades of music from every corner of the earth and mixing them together. And leaning into the fact that sometimes out of chaos, sequences form. Do Jan Jelinek and Janet Jackson go together, or were they just next to each other?

On RECENTS, expect to hear anything and everything, new and old, including guest DJ sets & live performances, and sometimes even compiling & discussing music that fits a theme (just to bring some order to it all).

This month, LUPE is joined by Jessie Calistri and Kiké Mayor as they launch their new LA-based label Hindsight Recordings.

Her performances across San Francisco, Los Angeles, Chicago, New York, and Peru reflect a versatile and consistent approach that connects naturally in both intimate rooms and larger venues. Her upcoming release under her alias Gema on Camp Butter Records marks her first appearance on vinyl and the start of an exciting new chapter in her musical path.
