Ep 160: "Condos Hovering"

Nimsins, in whose cadences repetition leads to insight, and who's been putting out  great singles for two years, is on Water for the Town v.3 (bandcamp), the latest compilation from SMARTBOMB, a central node for an emergent genre-blurring Bay Area sound. All proceeds from the compilation go to the Village Oakland, dedicated to providing housing, food, healing, and dignity to those who have been displaced by gentrification.

Episode title is from the Nimsins song "Truth."
