I had a really fun talk with James Brandon Lewis about his mindblowing new @antirecords.bsky.social LP Apple Cores for @aquariumdrunkard.com. "I’m the person who, the things that people have told me were 'wrong' about my playing, I leaned into 𝘩𝘢𝘳𝘥𝘦𝘳." aquariumdrunkard.com/2025/02/25/j...

It is a good run since I Made a Place. I hope everyone else has not been sleeping on this run of albums.

Been on a massive Phil Upchurch kick the last few weeks. Donny Hathaway, Bob Dylan, George Benson, Quincy Jones, Curtis Mayfield, Howlin’ Wolf—Upchurch’s versatile playing fits in no matter who he’s with. Here he is on John Schneider’s Soundboard in 1985 demonstrating the beauty of “Upchurch-ism.”

If you upload your consciousness to the cloud, does your worrisome foot fetish get uploaded along with it? I may be the host of the show, but Oldham poses some excellent questions here too.

The "right time, wrong guy"-ness of Kendrick's halftime show feels deeply in sync with what Gil-Scott Heron was saying here in the '90s: an internal revolution will never be captured on the TV (or the screens of our phones). Turn it off. www.youtube.com/watch?v=kZvW...

With the beatific Stax-inspired "Knowledge," @edwyncollins.bsky.social lets go of his "old self" in favor of who he is today. I spoke with him and his wife/manager Grace Maxwell about aphasia, optimism, Orange Juice, and more for my newsletter.

"It's a scuzzy sounding exploration of left-field indie rock, as if the instruments have been gathering dust for a couple of decades. Somehow everything still works, which comes as a surprise for the musicians themselves." @hctf.bsky.social on "It's Happening"

Streaming services as we understand them are criminal, but they are how most people listen. One actionable thing to try in the meantime: turn off autoplay. I find it so helpful to have what I selected finish & ask myself: what should I hear next? Lots of times the answer is silence.

New song out today: JPW & Dad Weed, "It's Happening" It's a song about how we imagine "other people" in relation to ourselves, but rather than make it sound solemn and serious, it's an ebullient, fuzzed up rocker. Listen now: orcd.co/flr084b

We could be loving one another, having so much fun together, and going forward in life, making life better and better for everyone. Wouldn’t that be a better scenario than this bullshit? It’s just insane what’s going on. And it doesn’t have to be this way. Grow up! Get a fucking life! — David Lynch
