Andy Stott - Luxury Problems
This is very me.
Dani Shivers — “Up!”

Kendrick Lamar — “Backstreet Freestyle”
Important context for the first time I heard this song: 4am in a strange hotel room, high on oxy, and trying to ignore post-surgery pain long enough to fall asleep.
And then Kendrick made everything a little bit better.
Beat Happening — “Bewitched”
I can only dream of being half as good a dancer as Calvin Johnson someday.
Love you St. Louis.
Novos Baianos - “Preta Pretinha”
CLÁSSICO!
I love YACHT and — though I haven’t had the chance to finish watching this yet — I loved hearing them detail their philosophy as Band/Business/Belief System, opine on the differences between LA and Portland, and more.
Adam Green’s iPhone film The Wrong Ferarri.
As far as inspiration, Green says the movie is “pointing to turning 30 and the concerns that come with that. Entering the next phase of life, whatever that may entail; that’s the simplest idea I was trying to communicate.” Also: “I was on a lot of ketamine at the time. It’s really impossible to separate the ketamine from this movie. It’s a ketamine classic.” He’s since laid off the drug somewhat. “I feel that it’s given me brain damage.”
“Heart Heart” — Withered Hand
Cool song and cool video by cool Edinburgher.
