Ep. 21: "Sunshine Melancholy" Part 2 - How Brian Wilson Changed Pop Music (1966-1977)
In Part 2 of their deep dive into the legacy of the Beach Boys' Brian Wilson, Bianca and Julian unpack how his post-Pet Sounds work helped shape entire branches of modern indie rock - including lo-fi, outsider music, dream pop, synth pop, and chillwave. Did Brian Wilson invent the first interactive/remix album? Was he behind one of the first children’s records by a major rock artist? And what’s considered his final masterpiece?
All that and more in Anything But Toto Ep. 21!
