THE SONIC INSIDER

Another three months have come and gone—summer’s peak and fall’s first hints already feel like they’ve flown by. To capture the best of this stretch, I’ve put together a special playlist of my absolute favorites from the quarter. Instead of simply merging the past three Tune Capsules, I handpicked the standouts to create a mix that’s fresh, cohesive, and impossible to ignore. Featured artists include Fruit Bats, Neighbour Andy, Chelsea Days, Mac DeMarco, and more.
