When do they stop tuning their instruments and play the music?

Detuned Radio

Episode Summary

Nat & Jesse swing the pendulum back from pop music to the opposite side of the spectrum. We talk hard-to-listen-to / avant garde music. “Challenging” music, if you will.

“I never worked out what it was that possessed me when music possessed other than I always wanted it.”

“Furthermore it made me someone of course. Thanks to music I became someone who was the forefront. Someone you had to admire. Not as much as you had to admire those who made the music admittedly. But as a listener I was in the vanguard.”

From “My Struggle” by Karl Ove Knausgard
