Midnight Sun is ia track that is always on my playlist, so thank you for having Nilüfer Yanya on here

[@sheepkillindog]

Check out the live version from Jimmy Kimmel. The sax player makes the track.

[@mcalnd]

The best new artist on planet for the last couple of years

[@davidfraser6950]

Good to see these being posted more reguarly. Wish we had Ameoba here in Scotland

[@Solyom_Sam]

Surely you have lots of amoebas in Scotland.

[@KodakKid]

Love her last album. Great picks!!!!

[@treacyblack8729]

This song is phenomenal! Take a listen with your airpods...such a powerful song

[@drabgothita2884]

always go down a rabbit hole of finding new music with each of these episodes, keep bringing them on these are the best.

[@NWforager]

great taste from a great artist

[@gracehavok8329]

This series keeps me young!

[@WallyBrando]

one of the best out there, she's a genius

[@peteranton62]

Saw her open up for Sharon Van Etten in 2019, super talented

[@flavor1436]

One of my fave artists, gonna spin some of these fs

[@teganmcdougall257]

One of my favourite artists, cannot recommend listening to Painless enough! Some top picks

[@timlo9078]

Obsessed that you can hear the influence in each singer and the song writing!

[@benw2751]

Tried to buy her first vinyl release in the US and couldn’t find it anywhere. Went to Amoeba and they were like “who?” Well now they know

[@multifunctionelis]

Blown away!

[@witchestoast8347]

big thief it's just wow, listening after episode and... thank you so so so so muchhhhhh

[@tudormiller887]

An amazing woman. Watching from London UK.

[@mmess65]

Excellent taste in music✌🏻 and pretty young lady🤗

[@lowmoon9025]

Life Between Islands is a solid recommendation, don't sleep on that.

[@victorinocroix1415]

Nilufer has album of the year no arguments fr

[@georgiaanderson8418]

I love her!!!!!!

[@falconhoof6]

Painless is a great record x

[@jacobniehaus]

Love her!

[@JohnDoe-kq8dx]

I wish I could hear Roman Candle for the first time again. Great episode, guys.

[@MrKelleyzinho]

She's got great taste

[@hectords164]

Been hoping for this 😭

[@martian_chan]

She’s got taste 🔥

[@TheMangoDeluxe]

Saw her open for Roxy Music last night and here I am

[@SamanthaHenderson1]

FUNKADELIC I didn’t think I could love her more. That informs so much of her guitar playing-along with the rest, of course. I’d love to see her cover “Maggot Brain.”

[@skawashers]

Are they allowed to write out a list before entering the store or is it blind picks . I get record shop amnesia as soon as i walk into a store. So i would be useless at this unless i could write a list

[@amoeba]

That's up to them, but as totally agree that making a list is super helpful. It's easy to get overwhelmed in the store, especially if it's your first time at Amoeba.

[@OtixMilia]

Derya ❤️❤️❤️

[@joedent1763]

Lovely

[@mr.hakawati2154]

Dope pick ups 🙌🏽

[@jjdg666]

I recently discovered this woman, and damn! She trapped me with the youtbe channel version "From the basement", of the Midnight Sun song

[@zypher1990]

Her list was short but eclectic and now I’m curious about what her own music sounds like and the albums I’ve never heard. The Angie Stone and ESG picks…*chef’s kiss* There’s a cool early 80’s NYC thread there💡Amoeba, you’re truly the plug💐

[@ThisCharminManc]

Normally head off to investigate the guest picks I’m not aware of, this time I’m off to investigate Nilüfer. Any chance of a what’s in my bag for Lonelady or Children of Zeus???

[@samedcelikten384]

Baglama not ballama :) great sesion with nilufer yanya... she is a great artist

[@eitheror2905]

Roman Candle..? It's Amazing!

[@giovannidiaz4487]

I also really dug Blurred View off the new Big Thief along with Simulation Swarm. That album coulda been cut in two though with the folksier stuff on one and the moody stuff on another. Meanwhile Nilüfer's own "Stabilise" is a bop and a half.

[@Mowmauf]

Was the first cd case cracked or was that just part of the design

[@RayZappa]

I was thinking that as well! So I looked it up and I think there's a crack in the top left part of the case but the vertical lines are part of the sleeve design. Glad to be of service..

[@CanOlum]

Kiz Nilufer, n'apan?

[@oguzsamsa2628]

n'aber nilüfer? müzik zevkin sağlammış.

[@atravelerofbothtimespace4172]

She's super cute

[@mr.wigglemunch3856]

The Boogeyman got me here

[@Solyom_Sam]

Nilüfer Yanya 😂😂😂 I know someone who is called Lok Nath Upadhyaya. Won't you call him from Nepal?

[@StationaryRocketFlipChampion]

Who?

[@ZAPPED916]

Meh…

[@ipsofacto7386]

Who?

[@ehmazin]

Isn't finding new music the whole point of Amoeba? She's great. You should try her latest album.

[@falconhoof6]

Assuming you don't really want anyone to tell you, because obviously it would be easier for you to just search her name yourself, it does beg the question what the purpose of your comment is?

[@NOWtheband]

@@falconhoof6 - Ha ha ha ha, brilliant! That is possibly the best reply I've seen to the old, tired n' common "Who?" comment! 🙂

[@fatbackfunk]

​@@falconhoof6 It's an interestingly perplexing phenomenon, isn't it? It's very nonsensical and infantile behavior and their intent has become quite clear, which is of course, edgelords simply being edgelords with what's now become an edgelord classic of sorts i.e. typing "who?" in response to videos like this, articles on bands, etc.. as a way of simply saying, "who the f**k is this? I've never heard of him/her/them, therefore they must be nobody of importance and/or shit, etc.." Again, completely moronic and nothing more than vintage edgelord behavior on parade. As always, that's the wonderful and often disturbing world of the internet for ya, no? Good times!
