From Independent Music Station, K-E-X-V, you're listening to In Our Headphones, a podcast about the songs that we just can't stop listening to.

This is Evie Stokes, and this week I'm talking with DJ Abby.

For those that may not know me, I haunt you every Wednesday, 1 a.m. to 5 a.m. Pacific time.

So if you can't sleep, come hang with me or in the archive.

Haunting sounds so sinister.

And you're the nicest person I know. Isn't it great? Can you hear the joy in my voice with the

haunting? I can. It's a good juxtaposition. Okay. So Abby, you have a few songs that you would

love to share with us today. A couple things that you can't stop listening to. What's your first pick?

Okay. My first pick is Ella Minus. I'm obsessed with Upwards from her new album, Dia. So this is

Ella's first release since the 2020 album, Acts of Rebellion, which is something I listened to a ton during

quarantines, lockdowns, and really love that album. Did you listen to it a bunch, too?

Oh, yeah. It was, I'm pretty sure it was like on my top 10 list that year. Like, megapunk was

something I constantly, like, blasted in the studio here.

I just love, she's like a drummer originally, and then you can hear that just applied throughout that whole record.

You can hear like all that club music goes with percussion first.

And I'm just like, yes, give that to me. I need this in 2020. And it was so

cool to have that just, you know, injected in this new record, Dia as well. Yeah. She has an amazing way

of sharing like, you know, stuff that's vulnerable and personal to her, but also putting it to club

music. And I'm here for that because I just want to dance it out and she makes it happen with this.

And the beat on this is incredible.

It's so good.

It's really, really good.
