hit disciples is back with a club banger from the buena vista social club presents ibrahim ferrer. it's called bruca manigua and it's the first non-english song we've done. it's also the first one where we objectively suck at understanding what's happening and struggle a lot. so enjoy listening to us sound dumb. skip to about 1:09:45 to get past the part where we suck at hearing music.

we have a nice discussion on opposite day about if genres are changing. and what they used to be. and what they are now. and what they are becoming. and the death of rock coinciding with the rise of hip hop and that that's not nothing. hit disciples back soon.

we're back with another edition of hit disciples where we analyze the 1959 flamingos hit "only have eyes for you." it's a dope song. and we have fun. compare and contrast it to last week's "what becomes" and theorize what chord "YOU" is. taking a break from depressing discussions of classical music, but don't worry. those will be back soon. for now enjoy!
