I used to work at the Beggars Group (Matador Records). One of the many things I’m grateful for there was how much folks like Patrick Amory (Co-President of Matador) opened up my mind to so many incredible artists. Patrick does a weekly mixtape on Mixcloud that has been mindblowing. He rips the music from his LP collection and he’s got the goods. Incredible.

😃i have like one friend that knows about this, but pure g is a page that hosts genuinely insane sets: some minimal, some disco-y, some straight brain fry sets. my go-to for having in my ear at work, or finding new DJ material to steal 😈

- A.G. Cook, GFOTY, Danny L. Harle, Lil Data, Nu New Edition, Kane West (2014) • DJ Mix
genuinely the best dj mix ive ever heard. in awe every single time i hear it. every single time; cutting open the skull; removing the brain; washing it in bleach and Red Bull Brand Energy Drink until it shines a metallic white; inject it with pure dopamine; brand it with Red Bull’s logo; insert it back into the skull and stitch it back together with iPhone charger cables. PC MUSIC is, if not the best, then the most interesting label to come out of the last decade, and this mix summarizes (almost) everything that made it what it was. it is Perfectly Plastic and its inauthenticity is routinely pierced by self-damnation. the music, without saying anything of substance at all, says everything it needs to say, and it does so with the exact intent labelmaker AG Cook intends in a clean, concise hour that doesn’t waste a single second, even on its lesser known labelmates. if that isn’t the mark of an incredible artist, i’d find it hard to tell you what is. All Manner Of Hats!

🇩You can't get comfy at home unless you're wearing slippers, and Haflingers are where it's at. Cozy wool felt on a cork bed with a rubber sole, so you don't slip while you're washing your 900th dish for the day. Go grizzlies or bust. Seriously these are the best slippers of all time.

📖I read every night before bed, and I’ve been on a binge of WW2 history books. With everything that’s happened recently, I’ve found myself turning to times when people had no idea what would happen next and how they got through it. Donald L. Miller tells the story of the first American Air Force and how airpower turned the tide. Warning, there are some gruesome accounts of how hard it was for so many people. The ultimate takeaway for me was that soldiers were motivated by love over hate to fight – love for their family, friends, and comrades. It kind of makes you think how much we all do for each other in the name of love. Heavy.

📺IYKYK. Gimme a bag of pirates booty and LFG! David Suchet as Agatha Christie’s Hercule Poirot does nothing but solve mysteries and get fits off (since 1989 btw.) I’ve watched the show my whole life, and the theme music still runs through my head whenever I’m walking down the street. They did every Poirot novel (70 episodes) and you can stream it everywhere. Most episodes are 90 mins so plan accordingly.
