Foxy Digitalis

Sulci’s debut album, “Before the Echo,” is a stunner. You’ve gotta hear it. Plus, news from arko​-​í​ris, and listen to me get excited about Paavoharjo’s new album, thinking it’s their first in a long time, and then find out they’ve had new records out the last two years. Rolling by the seat of my pants over here.

New week, new me (not really). Today’s pick is from Palestinian-American artist and musician, Omar Ahmad’s “Inheritance.” Also, I’ve released that I’m really not as drawn to harsh/noise/etc at all these days, and I’m not entirely sure why, but I think it’s interesting to think about. Whenever I need something to rattle my braincells, I generally turn to Hakuna Kulala or Nyege Nyege, but hit me with those HNW recs from the last year or so, the stuff that’ll change my mind (but also, get Elvin Brandhi & Lord Spikeheart’s “Drunk in Love” because it’s a fucken masterpiece).

I’ve been thinking a lot about my kid’s newfound obsession with Taylor Swift, and how wild it is to see fandom through their eyes (and see them obsess over something in the ways you have your entire life). It’s a pretty fun trip. Today’s pick - also a fun trip - an absolute gem from Lithuania from Andra Ljos.

Still trying to get my bearings this week, but there’s so many things going on it’s been near-impossible. It’s the new normal, I guess!

It should come as no surprise that I’m a sucker for a Dad/Daughter duo jam, and it doesn’t get much better then Dietrichs - Don and Camille. Plus some flowers for Not Not Fun, who really are one of the best labels of the last 20 years.

It’s Bandcamp Friday so you know what that means? A disaster of an inbox, but a wonderful opportunity to support artists while only giving a cut to one monster corporation instead of two. Wahey! But seriously, support artists. Everyday. Today’s pick is a beautiful new piano record from Stefan Christoff. Plus, I can’t get past how incredible the new Chief Adjuah record is, and there’s a new Diana Starshine on Orange Milk.

Last night was a good night where new connections were made and inspiration ran wild. It’s left me in a fantastic mood today. Elizabeth Still’s “Going For Home” is today’s pick and it’s an absolute stunner that wrecked me in the best way. Plus, new stuff from Green-House and Sarah Morrison.

Today’s pick is from an artist that’s new to me, but Zeyneb Toraman’s debut is fantastic (and it’s hard to believe it’s a debut). Plus new ones from BLAKMOTH, she spread sorrow, & a real gem on Dagoretti from Ayany Jowi.
