As well as that, Craig spins some of his favourite tracks from 2015: expect music from the likes of Kendrick Lamar, Courtney Barnett, Alabama Shakes, Young Fathers and more.
Released on in July 2015, Tame Impala’s third album Currents went on to dominate all the end of year lists, and became a mainstay on the radio and festival sound systems all through that summer, and beyond.
To celebrate its tenth birthday, alongside playing a huge range of music from that year, we’ve dug out some classic Kevin Parker interviews from the archive, plus you’ll hear from his contemporaries, collaborators and fans, revealing why they think he’s such a genius, and what it is about the album that made it so special. With Mark Ronson, Pond, Jane Weaver, Antony Szmierek, Shura, plus more.
Head to ÃÛÑ¿´«Ã½ Sounds to catchup with everything from the day, as well as to listen to a special programme that brings together the album and all the voicenotes together in one handy listen. Just search Tame Impala in Sounds.
