Best of Beats 1
One of the best parts of Apple’s Beats 1 is the lineup of unique shows that the station has assembled. Apple Music subscribers can listen to each full episode on demand, or skip to the new playlist with tracks from that week’s show. This week, we’ve got new episodes from St. Vincent, SOULECTION, and Jehnny Beth.
- St. Vincent’s Mixtape Delivery Service – This week’s mix is for anyone taking their first steps into a larger world, moving into a new phase of your life. The mix features music from Chance the Rapper, Empath, Here Lies Man, and Miya Folick.
- SOULECTION – Back from trips to Europe and Japan, Joe Kay offers up new cuts of music from his time there. This week’s show puts the spotlight on work from Quentin Miller, The Internet, Mario McKinnis, and Vhoor.
- Start Making Sense – The group’s own Beats 1 show might not have a new episode this week, but that doesn’t mean they’re not popping up all over Beats 1. This time, you’ll find them played by Jehnny Beth, who plays them alongside artists such as Bob Moses, Beak, and Johnny Hostile.
