Hi Kevin!
So uhm... We're gonna ignore that I didn't update the playlist in two-three weeks even though I said I'd update it weekly...
Actually- We don't have to ignore it, but I do have to acknowledge my habits and weekly routine are n o t compatible with weekly recommendations 🙃 I am still figuring out whether I want to give you little life updates through these (not like small yapper me could go without those anyways..) but uhm I've apparently figured out that the second semester of art university here just comes pre-packed with a bonus of mental issues :| Because this is the second time I'm a first year student, and even if I'm in a different department, stress, depression and anxiety are just an add on by default I guess-
That being said, I've had a whole roller coaster of feeling up and down for the past few weeks, but there's been much more work to distract me anyways! Another reason I haven't even had the time to recommend music... Howevee I've written down all songs I've remembered during the week!
Before the new music, I do want to show you my first bronze cut print!! it only took me... since January to make a singular one... and now I have to modify the plate further... but it turned out better than we all expected it!
I'm actually thinking of making a tbz inspired linocut after the semester ends!! Just so I have something to give you in case I see you on tour soon~
Onto the songs!
First one is Z Berg's "I Fall for the Same Face Every Time" - a song I actually skip a lot because I need to be in a specific mood to listen to it. I do enjoy her stuff a lot, but I am guilty of skipping it unprompted and prompted 🥲
Then Vision Arcade's latest release "Spaceman"!!
They're an indie band from Austin that I've been listening to for nearly 2 years! Which is actually quite shocking, I didn't realize it until I dug out the first reel of theirs I saw.. But their bassist, Evan, is actually one of the first people to congratulate me on getting my own bass guitar 😔😔 They've already grown so much, but I hope they grow even further - their stuff is so good!!
As the title suggests, I've been o b s e s s e d with Olivia Rodrigo's "obsessed" since it came out! Mo (my bestiee) is a giant fan of hers so she sent me the concert version first, but I didn't think I would also be so into it! We even thought of trying to get tickets to some Germany shows of hers but kinda gave up :// if anything we'll wait for your tour or go traveling this year! (I have to revisit Italy & meet Alice, go to Switzerland with Mo to see her family, maybe visit my family in France, go to Novi Sad to see Joker Out at Exit, go to Arsenal fest for Palaye Royale.... you guys have priority over anything tho~)
Now a little throwback for me, but when I was a baby theB I was whining s o much to Mo about the fact I wanted Jacob and you to do a cover for "More Than Words" LMAO I just think your tone would go so well with it!!!! Now I'm not sure if you've done it at any point, but if you haven't~ take it as a proposition if you have time to do it <3
for the last song I almost added "DOWNSIDE" again, but then realized I already put it in-- but I also think you would like "Cassandra" and "Looking as Cause" by Cosmo Sylvan! His stuff is so groovey with a lot of cool bass - and I found him through the band Ghost!
That's all from me for now, until the next time I remember to bring around recommendations!
