a mixtape i made last year. i don't usually listen to my own music but this was the first time i felt i truly made something that was not only special to me, but something i was proud enough to revisit and not pick apart all of it's flaws. these songs mean the world to me, and i hope others will find the same comfort i receive while listening them! for fans of: animal collective, modest mouse, radiohead, joanna newsom, björk, daft punk, car seat headrest, lil ugly mane and beck.

i know, i know.. you’re probably saying to yourself “vaporwave?! that’s certainly gotta be dead these days”, and yeah, i’d agree with you for the most part, but as a certified easy listening megafan and early adopter of the genre (i tried my hand at making a few very bad vaporwave tracks in 2013) i’m here to tell you the slowed-down, chopped-up, smooth eighties instrumentals are still hitting 12 years after the genre’s inception.
i recently discovered the vaporwave musician vcr-classique who uploaded all of their albums onto spotify last year and i’m thoroughly enjoying my time with them. i recommend the albums vidéo boutique, collection dautomne, and virtual metropolis, however all of them have at least a few gems sprinkled within their hazy retro soundscapes. i especially find it to be the perfect soundtrack for browsing pi.fyi. considering this platform’s old-internet feel with a modern twist, vaporwave makes the perfect pairing. 🥂

okay, you don't have to be rude about it. but you can actually say to objects, "hey, object, you're another kind of object now."
when reading before bed last night, i couldn't remember where my bookmark was. so i just threw out my arm into space, let my hand find... something.
a drink coaster.
and—yeah. i just threw it in there. in the book. and it worked! (at least, i think it did. i haven't tried reading again today.)

it's so good. i've done it since i was a kid. have you ever tried it? nighttime is the best, here's how i do it:
1. i walk into a room with a heavy, cozy, persian carpet on the floor. (in my apartment, there's only one such room.)
2. i lie down (on the floor).
3. i listen to music.
it's pretty easy, really. try it! i've attached a screen grab where you can see how it's done. that's hirayama from perfect days (great film).
here are three tracks for nighty night-time listening in no particular order.
• when u sleep
• you have telescoping arms and fingers (but I still love yooou!)
• et bånd

»in an effort to combat overpopulation, the postmortem social network 'anvil' is released.«
okay obviously, i don't rec or look forward to a social network like that. it sounds fucking horrible. but, but, but—the music video is dark and disturbing and absolutely beautiful. and the track slaps, too.
just drove a friend home, and after dropping her off, i queued this one up and slowly drove back through the night on almost-empty streets.
