The Japanese House - Chewing Cotton Wool EP

Every song on this release is great for different reasons, but “Dionne” has the line: Wishing that someone would film the way I’m looking at you right now, I want to watch it back and then kill myself. I’m almost never a fan of features in songs, and this is true for Justin Vernon’s feature in “Dionne”, but people love Bon Iver and the addition is completely inoffensive to me, so we’re cool.

Deerhunter “halcyon digest”

By 2010, indie music was looking like it was turning away from a series of regrettable choices; dead bands walking, basically. Then Halcyon Digest came along and reclaimed the joyous nostalgic highlights of the decade that had gone before in a captivating sonic capsule of subdued celebration. This album still reaches out to me from the slumber of an era in tentative transition - a beacon from a pea soup fog. The youthfulness of old was suddenly paired with the magnetism of experimentation and the result was a scintillating salute that tore the banality surrounding it to shreds. It also contains some of frontman Bradford Cox’s best compositions: the molasses memory stick “Earthquake,” the deceptively jaunty “Revival,” the almost-Vampire Weekend old/timeyness of “Helicopter,” Cox’s tribute to the late Jay Reatard “He Would Have Laughed” and the band’s best song and bid for pop greatness, “Desire Lines.” Cox described the LP’s title as “a reference to a collection of fond memories and even invented ones, like my friendship with Ricky Wilson or the fact that I live in an abandoned victorian autoharp factory. The way that we write and rewrite and edit our memories to be a digest version of what we want to remember, and how that's kind of sad." The past is still with us, just in re-remembered and sometimes wholly invented form. A masterpiece that I wish more people immediately tagged as such. 10/10, no notes.

Carrie & Lowell (10th Anniversary Edition)

oohh we are soooo back!! I can't believe it has been 10 years of Carrie & Lowell, it was such an important part of my teenage years, it was a big part of bonding with my best friend, we tried learning some of the songs on the ukulele togheter. In these moments I sense the cravings that lead us to count time, to have a day among many others that invites you to think about moments that have gone by. The album is a gift and I'm happy with the chance to spy a little on the creation process with the demos. Let us have many days with the presence of ourselves 🕊

Anything can be a pancake

This was going to be oatmeal, then was going to be a mug cake, then reached its final form as pancakes. You can literally fry anything resembling a batter

THROWING thematic parties for your friends the way you’d throw them for a 7 year old

Anyone who knows me knows I love a theme. I threw my boyfriend a Phoenix Suns-themed party for his 22nd using a kit I found on Amazon and it was randomly the best thing ever
