i know people hate bros sharing their spotify songs on ig but i really love this band, and all the other music from late 70s early 80s Japan. it's like an alternate universe to discover, and in many ways it's superior to our own.

mostly un/self-taught group of Japanese musicians making the sweetest sounds since the late 90s. Sort of led by Tori Kudo who's also a ceramicist among other things, its just one of those beautiful art practices that defies classification or genres -- linked is a video of Kudo explaining his relationship to the music with some excerpts <3 also most of their albums arent on Spotify so its fun to dig around and find what's what elsewhere! Blues Du Jour is a really good one but its almost all worth an ear

So I have this theory that life tries to put things in order at one end of the pendulum swing, and at the other it fucking just goes wrecking ball. And while these energies are always at play in all systems, they’re also evident over longer timeframes. Zeitgeist shit. Our culture (popular/socioeconomic/business) has been in a putting together swing for twenty thirty or so years and I think we’re into the backlash. Fuck your spreadsheet, it’s time to remember what being an animal swinging an axe feels like And go from there
