Arroe Collins Like It's Live

The Jib Machine Retro Single Summer Series kicked off last week with The Hostile Omish and their two bold, and much buzzed-about covers: “Eye of The Tiger” (Survivor) and “Psycho Killer” (Talking Heads). This week all eyes and ears are on J TEMP 13’s “jUnK-26” out today via Jib’s subsidiary, Electrik Stick Records.  Originally released in 2018, this new version of “Junk” was remixed by house producer Handanu. The banger is strong with neon-like tech house beats, an haunting repetitive chorus, and an obsession-worthy tempo.  Stream the track now via J TEMP 13’s Spotify.Summer is short. Life is short. Make art and support live and local music.

I’m always asking questions.  The fun begins when you start researching for answers. Such as…   The days are slow but life is moving too fast…how can we slow this Ferris wheel down? Plus…grumpiness isn’t just a guy thing.  The numbers are sharply increasing in the department of women.   I’m Arroe…  I am a daily writer.  A silent wolf.  I stand on the sidelines and do nothing but watch, listen study then activate.  I call it The Daily Mess.  A chronological walk through an everyday world.  Yes, it’s my morning writing.  As a receiver of thoughts and ideas, we as people tend to throw it to the side and deal with it later.  When a subject arrives, I dig in.  It’s still keeping a journal!  By doing the research the picture becomes clearer.  This is the Daily Mess…

The song was and still is heavily influenced by the actions and reactions of real people who feel alone. Reaching beyond those moments of isolation brings together an invisible community that can serve as truly connecting during times of personal disconnection.

When my mother transitioned, she took every memory with her. She wrote nothing down. Even worse, she never spoke of her younger chapters. I'm the exact opposite. I've been a daily writer since July 1994. The things our parents did that they never shared with us. I believe my mother had a love affair and I came from it. She always dodged the questions, and I'm not interested in a DNA background check. Mom's probably right to keep things like this away from the future.

Songs about marijuana, pot and whatever else you want to call it.  Radio took a hit and didn't get a high but the rush from FCC was too big and it made them dizzy.  Plus, wag the dog is huge right now and the art of it all has turned fake stories into classic moments in non American history.

Educator and neuroscientist Dr. Jared Cooney Horvath reveals why digital tools in school consistently undermine learning-and what parents, teachers, and schools can do to push back with purpose.Our children are struggling.Schools, once alive with human connection, are now dominated by screens and digital tools. The result is unmistakable: declining performance, fractured attention, and the slow erosion of rigorous thought. For the first time in recent history, children are falling behind previous generations on many key measures of cognitive development.In The Digital Delusion, neuroscientist and educator Dr. Jared Cooney Horvath reveals how the widespread use of laptops, tablets, and classroom software is undermining how children learn and develop. Drawing on decades of research, he provides practical tools for families to reassess device use at home, equips educators with the means to restore attention-rich learning environments, and helps schools make smarter decisions about technology. He exposes and dismantles the central myths driving the EdTech movement and lays out a clear path for putting people-not programs-back at the center of education. This is not a call to reject technology.JARED COONEY HORVATH BIO

Variety called Trouser Press "one of the greatest music magazines in history" and described Zip It Up! (2024) as "practically a real-time history of some of the best rock music of that era." Zip It Up! Too is packed with more enthusiastic, in-depth coverage of a diverse collection of artists. Vintage interviews with Paul McCartney, Jeff Beck, Bill Wyman and members of The Who provide insight into classic rock history, while profiles of the Police, Talking Heads, Duran Duran, the Cars, Devo, the Pretenders and New Order reflect the progress of music in the 1980s. There are features on Nick Drake, Ian Dury, the Modern Lovers, Lene Lovich, ABBA, the Troggs and the German group Can - as well as a previously uncollected Ramones interview by the famed Lester Bangs.Zip It Up! Too includes 21 "autodiscographies," a unique Trouser Press feature in which artists spoke about each of their albums in sequence, sharing detailed behind-the-scenes memories of them. Stars who opened their musical closets to Trouser Press include Genesis, Jethro Tull, Jefferson Airplane, Cheap Trick, Sparks, Iggy, Blondie, Slade and Ian Hunter (Mott the Hoople), all of whom provided fascinating first-person documents of real historical value.Trouser Press began as a mimeographed fanzine in New York in 1974 and grew to a glossy national monthly by the end of its existence in 1984. Although known for its coverage of British bands, the magazine more generally focused on music that was underground, independent or unappreciated. Fans called it "the bible of alternative rock."Trouser Press put its name to five album review guides published in the 1980s and 1990s and continues with a dedicated website at www.trouserpress.com.From Zip It Up! Too: James Osterberg, more notoriously known as Iggy Pop, is an American original: an articulate juvenile delinquent. From the moment he burst on the national scene with the Stooges, there was no doubt that here was the reductio ad absurdum of rock and roll. Over the years, Osterberg has somehow not only survived but grown, dragging Iggy with him. Zombie Birdhouse marks a new direction in his music - one no less compelling than the chaotic self-destruction of old. He has also given us a book of autobiographical reminiscences, I Need More, to further our understanding of his intriguing personality. Here Osterberg examines his recorded legacy and the situations surrounding its creation. "All recordings are painful," he says. "It's like waiting to score." Brace yourself for the raging id of Ig. You know how great the Ramones are. But, sadly, there is a world out there which remains unconvinced. Once or twice a year, I revisit my erstwhile stomping grounds in Detroit, and when I do, I always stay at the home of Rob Tyner of the MC5. A little over a year ago, I happened to notice that his eight-year-old son, Robin, was getting on this Fonzie kick, saying things like "Hey dad, do you think I could ever get just a bunch of guys to hang out with and do stuff?" He didn't know the word "gang" and of course had no idea what they would do if and when they got together to hang out except that it would, of course, be "cool." Rob threatened to buy him a tom-thumb-size black leather jacket. I took more direct action: I went out and bought a copy of Ramones Leave Home, brought it back to the house and said: "Robin, I've got a present for you" - whipping it out of the bag - "punk rock!" (Lester Bangs) "My father's a salesman," Jonathan Richman explains. "That's where 'Roadrunner' came from. He's a traveling salesman. He sells to military installations all over New England. That's how I got that love for 7 Up signs and Norwood and Foxboro and all these different places. I would sit in the car with him, and we would drive all over this area, up and down New England. It was like a whole other world to me." Jonathan is sitting in a Cambridge natural food restaurant at eleven in the morning. He is wearing a T shirt and shorts. His muscular, unshaven appearance is surprisingly different from his publicity pic.
