This week's picks by Danny Dorko
02/02/2026
Indie Pick Selected by Danny Dorko
“Seven Nation Army”
The White Stripes · 2003
Minimal and deliberate, the track shows how raw indie restraint can grow into something massive and communal — proof that simplicity can travel far beyond its origin.
Current Year Selected by Danny Dorko
“Chipping Teeth”
Safari Room · 2026
A familiar ache wrapped in soft electronics and quiet momentum. SONIQLOOX alum Safari Room leans into intimacy and melody here, crafting something reflective, immersive, and easy to get lost in.
Legacy Track Selected by Danny Dorko
“Eve of Destruction”
Barry McGuire · 1965
A stark snapshot of unrest and uncertainty, “Eve of Destruction” channels the anxiety of its moment with blunt urgency. It’s protest music without poetry for poetry’s sake — direct, uneasy, and still uncomfortably relevant decades later.
