Midnight Radio
Inspired by the Electrifying Mojo, Midnight Radio is a short burst of late-night reverberations, inspirations, and a five-track mixtape delivered ’round midnight on the 1st and 15th of each month.
Some episodes will be available in partial form as a podcast. Many will not. But every episode of Midnight Radio will always be available in its full Technicolor glory at jamesreeves.co.

Also includes snippets from Joy Division, Depeche Mode, Leonard Cohen, Yazoo, Skeeter Davis, Rebekah Del Rio, and 10cc. (The moment at the eight-minute mark when a Joy Division fragment lands on a half-speed synth is my favorite thing yet in these fifteen mixes.)
Listen below, or here’s a premium executive mp3 you can play while you ponder whether or not to root for this asteroid.
