World Cafe Playlist for 03/30/2026

Atmosphere joins host Stephen Kallao

The hip-hop duo Atmosphere may be grizzled vets when it comes to making music, but they haven’t lost their youthful spark. Their latest, Jestures, is a bold concept album featuring 26 tracks, each representing a different letter of the alphabet. On the World Cafe, Ant and Slug of Atmosphere join us to talk about the fun ways they challenge themselves, and they reflect on 30 years of working together.

Listen to the session here.
