insanely fresh and deeply inspiring. i havenāt gotten sick of running this record front to back over and over.
dream collab honestly but maybe im too fanned out, I went to their NYC show and gave him a burned CD of the album iām working on, spent a ton of time putting stickers and drawings in the liner notes.
Have you ever heard music that evokes a deep personal connection with the artist? iād love to hear about yours. a song you heard and said fuck yes i couldāve made this, I would have made this, like the song is reading your mind.
not out of jealousy that you DIDNT make it, but purely out of inspired admiration.

my friend recommended his song āCarthageā to me a couple years ago and since then, his nameās been on my radar but i never really took the time to properly dive into his discography until tonight. the weather getting cooler here has me craving the lush and warm sonic landscape of guitar music and this album is just what iāve been looking for. itās some of the most magical music iāve heard in a long timeā¦
i also recommend wholeheartedly thanking your friends for music recommendations that you really resonate with, even if you listen to it years after they recommend it, and even if thanking them sounds or seems sappy. recommending music is such a special and sacred thing and i always like to hear when someone connects with something iāve sent them, whether i talk to this person every day or once every few years. sharing music is choosing to love and we should spread that love all around, all the time <3

dude is going places. if you only know him from his song Naked that blew up on TikTok a few years ago, do yourself a favor and get into the rest of his catalogue. such a unique sound and energy and truly one of the most unapologetically in his own lane artists out there rn.

Okay, I just HAVE TO share my thoughts on the new Alex G albumā¦ The summer before 8th grade, an internet friend of mine (we met through the fan page I ran for The Gardenš) posted about how much she loved Alex and specifically his song Sandy. I went to Alexās Bandcamp and started with the first track listed, Joy. I instantly fell in love and listened to his entire discography at the time. I had never heard music like that before, which opened up an entirely new musical world for me. I have an obsessive personality, so as a teen I was biggg fan girl, almost unhealthyā¦ I wanted to know everything about him, gather all the lore, read every interview, and watch every video posted on YouTube (which I successfully did until he gained more recognition). This was before he released Rocket.Ā I joined an Alex discord server and met some of the most important people in my life at the time. No better feeling than bonding with other high schoolers across the country over our love for music! We met each other irl and traveled at least once a year to visit each other. I started a record label with them and met my bff at the time, who I also dated for 5 years. Even though we are not a part of each other's lives anymore, I am forever grateful for those experiences. As a depressed teenager, I really needed them and Alexās music. Iāve met him about 6 or 7 times and seen him live at least 10 times. Iām proud of his success, totally different vibe than when I discovered him. I understand why people like the music so much! It's the same reasons that appealed to me. Although it will never be the same, I will be a fan until the end of time. My favorite musician of all time, no one compares!!! I feel so happy today :) My top tracks from Headlights: Bounce Boy, Far and Wide, Louisiana, and Spinning, but I love them all!!! I will be listening to this album on repeat. Music Is Awesome And Brings People Together š„²

when u manage to land a gig , even if you bomb, hand out custom bottle openers, stickers, or business cards if need be. (preferably the former, something that isnāt easy to throw out. but IS easy to pocket or add to a keyring.) make sure nobody leaves the venue without a piece of you - this method helps me hack my crippling social anxiety. the pretense of a gift or offering acts as a shield in the face of dread and uncertainty, allowing me to approach people in a way which often feels impossible.
this is inevitably not viable for a lot of creatives. you are taking a net loss in the hopes of creating a personally memorable moment for the people in your scene.
you could call it a percbuddy psyop, but i also see it as proactive realness.

šŖ±very basic pick but dune was so ahead of its time itās crazy. Sci-fi was forever changed by this cerebral piece of literature.
