Cycles Per Second 10/16/24: Bandcamp, etc. Links

On this week’s show: We start with a pop, crackle and jangle, with new music from Toronto (Ducks Ltd.) and a classic pop single from a new LP reissue (The dB’s). New local music from Seattleites Rat Paws, a far-out/freak-out cover from Richmond band Outer World, and mod-style DIY pop from Chicago’s Sharp Pins. Wrapping it all up: a Go-Betweens rarity, unearthed as part of a new charity comp for Hurricane Helene relief.
