@MartinChilton I'm a producer with NPR in Washington, DC. Would love to talk about one of your old pieces about deconstructing love songs. [email protected]

If my shoes don’t stick to the floor and my view of the stage isn’t obscured by random beams, this replica will disappoint.

[DCist @DCist]

The Atlantis, a replica of the original 9:30 Club, will open behind the existing venue in May. Foo Fighters will kick off a run of 44 acts performing at the intimate venue through September. https://t.co/QBdzk5RmEL

The last time I was stunned by a pilot was “Orphan Black.” The way the plot revealed itself, the economy of writing, and of course Tatiana Maslany’s performance. I was hooked.

[Stephen Ford @StephenSeanFord]

What show do you think has the absolute best pilot?

@brianMT Moving them over so I can make room for new CDs

On @MorningEdition today, @LeilaFadel had a great conversation with Dave Gahan of Depeche Mode (about a damn good new album too!). If you've got 7 minutes to spare, please give it a listen. If you've only got 3 1/2, listen to half.

Everything about this sucks (not David’s reporting, the news itself). I was spared but I’m not in the mood to feel relieved. I’m pissed for my colleagues and the talent NPR has jettisoned. Great people were shown significant disrespect this week.

[David Folkenflik @davidfolkenflik]

Tough day at NPR: Four podcasts canceled, 10 percent of workforce laid off. We'll learn more about who is leaving the network in hours and days to come.

1/ Three years ago, I was in the weeds working on what would become White Lies, @TBowmanNPR swung by to tell me about an alleged coverup early in the Iraq War. Together, we dug in. Today, we’re sharing what we’ve learned in NPR’s new podcast Taking Cover. https://t.co/IwlW8SErFW

Thank you @MorningEdition for this incredible interview! Thank you @LeilaFadel for making me feel comfortable and heard. I am so honored and proudly pinching myself, I’m on NPR!!💫

[Phil Harrell @PhilHarrellNPR]

I wish we had more time on the show for this one. My ideal cut was almost twice as long!

Sounds like I need to buy more CD’s this year

[NPR @NPR]

Vinyl albums outsold CDs last year for the first time since 1987, according to a report released Thursday.

It marked the 16th consecutive year of growth in vinyl, with 41 million albums sold — compared to 33 million CDs. https://t.co/YlCRJb2WQo

[Phil Harrell @PhilHarrellNPR]

I love this thread. To show my age, I produced a series in 2002-2003 called The CD Wish List. What were the best LP’s that didn’t make it to CD? I loved that series.

[NPR Music @nprmusic]

De La Soul is finally available to (legally) stream. Death Row Records is back after a streaming hiatus.

So what's missing now? Is there a song or album that's 𝙣𝙤𝙩 available to stream that you'd love to have at your fingertips?

[Morning Edition @MorningEdition]

Pink Floyd's album "Dark Side of the Moon" was released 50 years ago today and is still on the Billboard charts, making it one of the longest-charting album in history.

Here's what a psychologist — and Pink Floyd fan — makes of it.

Paramore has a new album out! Hayley Williams came on to @MorningEdition to talk about it. https://t.co/pIZQifdh6h

.@MsRebeccaBlack "Millions of people having awareness that you exist as a teenager is really complicated & something I didn't really understand. Now I'm 25...feeling like I had been defined by something that I never really set out to be defined by..." https://t.co/ACUh4ZHSxM

@kdemea @stu_rush Use! Go rent a copy of “Krull” and I’ll be right over.

The man who discovered Elvis would be 100 today.

Producer Sam Phillips shaped rock & roll, but told NPR in 1993 that he wasn't necessarily conscious of creating a genre:

"I think I was conscious of letting out the insides, emotional insides, of people."
