Description

Ever showed your dad or maybe your benevolent but somewhat stuck up grandma some new music that you've found? And you're really excited about it, maybe this up-and-coming band that just makes you feel some kind of way, and you show your dad or grandma but you're met with that stuck-up response: "this isn't real music."
Here at Not Real Music, we embrace the concept of being rejected. Being misfits, being outcasts, being losers. And on the Not Real Music podcast, we look at albums made by some of those misfits and losers, and we tell you what we think about it, with only one disclaimer: these are our opinions and nothing more. We stand by the truth that art is relative to taste, and we're simply here to appreciate some of that art with you.
Our hosts Luke and Matt, formerly known as the Donut Dudes, come to you to review one album per week, with two collective episodes breaking down said albums coming out on Tuesdays and Fridays, respectively. Tuesdays they do overview episodes, talking about the history of the artist and taking a bit of a broad approach as they talk about the album, and on Fridays, they'll break down the album track by track. Soon enough, you'll find yourself thinking Tuesday is the new Friday, and that Friday is also the new Friday.

I just uploaded this to see if it still works
The return of the track-by-track review is here with the second half of the Rainbow Mixtape review! It's still technically Friday!
The dudes are back, but wait? What's different? New haircut? No, new logo, who dis? That's right, the Donut Dudes are back and better than ever, because we're now the Not Real Music Podcast. Same concept, different name. This week, we're here to talk about COIN's 2021 studio album "Rainbow Mixtape," and there are some mixed reviews to say the least.
"I like this album", "Hi, welcome to the Donut Dudes". All this and more inside another action packed episode of the Donut Dudes.
The wait is over. Part two is here. Wes, we love you.
One half of the original inspiration for the Donut Dudes joins us for half of an episode! Bagel Boy Wes Morgan joins the Donut Dudes this week and next to talk about a ton of other stuff while they also review the sophomore album from pop/rock band Imagine Dragons. They talk for an entire half hour before they even start to review a song. It's a mess.

This album freaking sucks, listen to us crap on it for a super long time.
I'm sick of writing descriptions trying to hype you guys up that we're "back." I'm trying to get us on a weekly schedule but it's hard because SOMEBODY refuses to let me just use my laptop for recording, even though it will still sound almost as good, and who cares? He doesn't even listen to the episodes? So what does it matter? And it's not like we have any fans anyway!! Either way, here's this stupid episode, sorry if we swore and I didn't bleep it out, I didn't have time to listen through it. This album is super good though, so actually listen.
THE DUDES ARE BACK. Matthew returns from his long hiatus and the Donut Dudes are ready to review another new album. The self-titled album from one of their favorite bands, The Band Camino, is finally here and the guys review it with precision, accuracy, and cold-hearted cynicism. This is Matthew's first episode having a mustache.
In this episode, recorded somewhere in the past, special guest Michelle takes the place of the absent Matt, who was apparently too good for podcasting during that time. Luke and Michelle tackle what could be called the most successful album of 2021, O-Rod's debut album Sour!
In another episode from the vault (aka it took us forever to get around to editing it), Luke and Matt tackle Mumford and Sons' first album, Sigh No More, which burst them onto the scene in late 2009. Spoiler alert: they both like it.
GUESS WHO'S BACK. It's your favorite pastry pals, the donut dudes! In this "From The Vault" episode recorded in the late summer of 2021, special guest and enneagram 6 Hannah Miller joins the show to talk about one of the most popular albums of the last ten years. Stay 'til the end if you can to hear our fancy new outro music. :)
Our two normal hosts, Luke and Matt, who host every episode, are back in this episode as well, just like normal, talking about John Mayer's latest album, Sob Rock. In this very normal episode, Luke and Matt discuss, as normal hosts do, the contents of Mayer's latest studio album, and how it stacks up against his past work.
The dudes review a new album from up and coming artist Dayglow, which has captured the donut shaped hearts of both of the dudes, and we think it will capture yours as well. Find out by listening to this episode as soon as you possibly can. Right now.
Our good friend Eden is back to talk collective favorite Owl City's 2011 album All Things Bright and Beautiful and how well it stacks up against Ocean Eyes (2009), which we reviewed earlier in the show. Please listen to this episode.
Luke and Matt discuss an artist they have discussed in the past and disagree almost entirely, but only one of them can be right. Who will it be? You get to decide, because that's how opinions work.
NATURECAST - The dudes take to the outdoors to tackle one of their favorite up-and-coming bands with their good friend and fellow musician Josiah, who wears a hat throughout the episode to keep from getting a sunburn.
Luke and Matthew tackle the latest full length album from groundbreaking band Judah & the Lion and actually get kind of serious for a few minutes towards the end, but don't worry it doesn't last for long.
A very special and incredibly chaotic episode in which Bagel Boy co-host and co-creator Daniel Foster joins us to talk about the smash hit debut album from The Killers, "Hot Fuss." You'll laugh, you'll cry, and probably everything else in between, so buckle down and listen up!
It's not all sunshine and rainbows in this episode. Luke and Matthew take on a divisive and slightly problematic album in their review of LANY's latest album Mama's Boy.
