New treats.

I have been listening to the music of Youth Lagoon, aka, 22 year old Trevor Powers for the last week. This last week I´ve found myself transfixed by the sound of it. ‘A Year In Hibernation’ the debut from Youth Lagoon, was released earlier this year. This will doubtfully grow on you and with some well deserved time, you will be rewarded.



Pitchfork review of Afternoon: "´Afternoon´ from Year also builds gradually, but right from the opening whistled riff, it's obvious that the stakes aren't as high. Which is not a bad thing: ´Afternoon´ bounces and stomps along, Powers' wavering, occasionally wordless vocals constantly present throughout. It's not always easy to make out his lyrics, but that's okay-- the feeling in his music is easy to find."

An incredibly honest set of songs, and an incredibly beautiful outcome.

Corinne, pronounced "ko-rin", " car-inn", "ker - in", "core - in", "core-rin", "caw-reen" or "co-reen", is a female name, and the French or English variant of Corina, meaning "beautiful maiden." This is a tale of chasing unattainable affection.




Metronomy - Corinne Lowonidonjon/UK

this is sooooo fucking beautiful.

I know it´s been two years since this came out, but nevertheless, I do like this, a lot, has



no pretensions to it, just glazed eyes, unkempt hair, the taste of wine, the smell of cigarettes, hole-in-the-wall diners, vintage clothes, guys kissing girls kissing guys, watching the sunset at an overlook in the city...not wanting to be anywhere but that moment with your friends...as you leave your self behind.


life is fucking beautiful.



Girls - Hellhole Ratrace SF/Cali

Dance is an art form that generally refers to movement of the body, usually rhythmic and to music, used as a form of expression, a social interaction.

Weeknd - Wicked Games Tronno/Canada






Jamaican filmmaker Storm Saulter was stirred to create his own scene of that drama, this time painted in glossy, wet color. He traveled with two cameras, his brother Niles, Claire Osman and actress Racquel Jones to Portland, Jamaica, hoping to create he says, “a moody, voyeuristic, sexy but sad,” pairing for “Wicked Games.” Jones’ acting is unnerving and committed. Watching, you hope she won’t pour her whole stash of champagne into the flower planter, and you wince when she laughs, then cries.

Welcome buck.

A stuttering, hypnotic duck free dance track. This song's production is so addictively bright and poppy: "Keep your body still/ Keep your body still", she sings, but here such a request is completely unmanageable. Nice track to start this week.
