Latest submission to the playlist this week comes in from New Yorker Stephen Babcock.
With the arrival of his latest E.P “Fiction”, it’s been a hard choice to select just one track for the list – and definitely encourage listening from front to back, but today I’m show casing “Seersucker Dress” a personal favourite…
I’ve had enough of trying to Save the World! this week. I mean, I’ve been putting in some serious hours in this silly little thing we call life, and now I’m ready for some maximum chill time.
More original instrumental music from really good independent games this week. We’re going to have a look at some atmospheric and experimental sounding electronic music. The Glasshouse with Butterfly by Tomáš Dvořák is a track from Amanita Design’s Machinarium…
Jellyfish go through 4 distinct phases of life to complete our “life cycle.” We start as a larva, then develop into a polyp, sometimes forming colonies and sharing a stomach with our little brothers and sisters. We each break free eventually as an ephyra and then develop into an adult medusa.
Last 5 tracks of this top 40 of Open Another Door and I can’t skip something that most of the music industry skips, all the music coming from the east.
I grew up watching anime and heard them in many languages, but something amazing is the masterpieces they create and never appear on the charts. For example this guys, WagakkiBand.
Have you ever watched a flower bloom? The anticipation every day that today might be the day it opens up to show its true colors, leaves us in a state of hope. We have seen flowers in full bloom before so we understand the reward for waiting, and more often than not we are left in awe of their beauty. Flowers can be tricky though, some require constant care and a perfect climate so we spend a lot of time tending to them, nurturing them so they may be seen by the world in all of their glory. Humans can act the same way…
This is a slow building rock song by some of the greatest voices in vocal entertainment, the Eagles. It is about the feeling you get after spending years of your life on someone’s love: was it all worth it?
“Being human hurts. We try so hard to avoid this fact…”
I was reading the other day this blog entry from a doctor called Lissa Rankin, someone I admire very much and consider a very wise person. She was talking about how we tend to avoid pain constantly and it always ends up being worse for us,…
Dennis Brown’s smooth vocals never fail to set me at ease. The tone and positivity he emits, along with his subject matter, has made him my favorite reggae vocalist. This opinion was also shared by Bob Marley himself, who gave him the title, “the crown prince of reggae.”…
Southern California soft rock band Ambrosia had five singles that were hits, which were enough to emblazon them in the tapestry of 70s pop culture fabric forever. One of their best is “How Much I Feel,” which was a single released from their Life Beyond L.A. album in the summer of ’78 and this sultry tune definitely made it hotter.
Have you heard this? Well if not it’s worth the the listen. It starts off with these melodic voices then comes the strings. The instrumental has such an abstract and airy feel yet, the message is as heavy as concrete. But it definitely deserves a 🥃 on the playlist. Toast to Gambino because this is America…
You never know what it is about a song that’s going to get you – could be the melody, a lyric, the overall instrumentation and production – but for a song to catch your attention – there needs to be a hook – this one gets you like a dagger to the heart!
