Next we check in with Joe Stevens of Peel Dream Magazine. The group will bring it's shimmering, fuzzy pop-rock to the Cinghole on Saturday night. If you like Stereolab check out this group.

At Pressed tonight (January 30) you can see WHOOP-Szo and Ottawa's No Mistakes in Space. We talk to Adam Sturgeon of WHOOP-Szo about the songs on their album Warrior Down and how it was a long process to create and record these songs as they relate stories of many challenges faced by Indigenous peoples in Canada. Adam also talks about how the group structured the new album and brought together a diverse collection of pieces into a cohesive package.

Finally we talk to Mitch of No Mistakes in Space. He gives us the story behind the band's awesome name and it has more to do with Buddhism than sci-fi or HAL in 2001 a Space Odyssey. He also talks about how the band loves to create songs with lots of emotional punch as they move from quiet bits to powerful crescendos - in the great post-rock tradition. He also lets us know that the band will be playing new music tonight as the group is eager to get back into the studio to record some new tunes.
