Strange Currency mixes and matches the old with the new, the familiar with the less familiar. Though we can all build our own playlists, it's still fun when someone does the heavy lifting for us. Host Jedd Beaudoin scours the wild terrains of new releases and searches the outback of classic cuts to bring you a thought-provoking listening experience each time.
This week on the show, we’ll preview our May featured artists, Ron Sexsmith and Fiona Apple.

Released in 1980, Terminal Jive was the second release from the band Sparks to be produced by disco/electronic music legend Giorgio Moroder. It found the brothers Ron and Russell Mael experimenting with dance music and emerging with one of their most beloved albums. Listen for selections from that as well as music from The Dream Syndicate’s 1986 album Out of the Grey.
