reconnected with Scissor Sisters' "Paul McCartney" last night, hadn't heard it in a while despite it being one of my favorite songs of the 2000s - overcome with joy all over again - one of the best bridges ever written youtube.com/watch?v=-ibX2K…


a nice thing about it getting dark early is there's more time for night music

New playlist "after 1:30 am" - a 2 hour soundtrack-style collection not intended for daylight hours, heavy on soul, blues, and jazz from the 20th century - I like this one a lot Spotify: open.spotify.com/playlist/2dK4z… Apple: music.apple.com/us/playlist/af… YouTube: youtube.com/playlist?list=…

ok so if an extremely successful rap producer puts out a song with a sample that doesn't appear to be officially credited though other samples on the record are, and other sites have identified it, should I worry about writing about it in terms of "sample snitching"

If you don’t live convenient to one of the many retailers that carry ANTICS, you can order a copy via our website. anticsmagazine.bigcartel.com/product/antics…


still a very weird thing to put on network tv to this day, the world not close to catching up to the first B-52s album 45 years later

The B-52's - Dance This Mess Around 1980 / Saturday Night Live / S05 E09 🕺🏻sound on🕺🏻

funny how the common use of the word "creator" has shifted so much in the past few years that the name Tyler The Creator has gone from sounding pompous to sorta humble

listening to Gizzard Lizard Wizard for the first time and having my tiny, prog-loving mind blown

New playlist KING GIZZARD AND THE LIZARD WIZARD | BEGINNER'S GUIDE, intended as an accessible starting point for anyone curious about their vast and varied body of work Spotify: open.spotify.com/playlist/23ZCx… Apple: music.apple.com/us/playlist/ki… YouTube: youtube.com/playlist?list=…

the way King Gizzard tour seems so much more fun to me than what most acts do - shows are totally different, random acoustic shows, sometimes you want to play a lot of metal, sometimes you go fully electronic, shows can be crazy eclectic or genre focused on a whim
