there’s a website where you put in two musicians/artists and it makes a playlist that slowly transitions from one musician’s style of music to the other’s

it’s really fun

lady gaga -> napalm death takes a weird detour through epic rap battles of history

This is actually really useful for finding music that’s in between genres that I wouldn’t know to look for.

This has nothing to do with books but it’s COOL

I feel like this could be useful for trying to slowly pull yourself away from your depression music to something more uplifting without it being jarring…

Link above is broken, so here:

Archive.org deliver a windfall of lost music.

If you’re looking for a good way to spend the rest of your week, Archive.org have unearthed a gigantic collection of cassettes from the mid-eighties into the mid-nineties. According to their notes, the collection was saved from the archives of noise-arch.net and donated by former CKLN-FM radio host Myke Dyer in August of 2009. Due to the size and obscurity, the collection hasn’t been properly notated but is said to include cassettes ranging from “tape experimentation, industrial, avant-garde, indie, rock, DIY, subvertainment and auto-hypnotic materials”. Head to Archive now to download the free collection.

I know that some of you will lose your minds over this.

If you’re really into hardcore music (and adjacent), 121 bands have come together to release a compilation album to benefit Palestinian children (all proceedings will be donated to MECA for Peace). The album was released on bandcamp and is called “A HOMELAND DENIED: A Compilation for Palestinian Liberation” and you can get by clicking the link.

IMPORTANT NOTE: under all of the track listings is text that encourages someone wanting to download the comp to donate $10 or more DIRECTLY to MECA for Peace and to send proof of this donation to an email, they will then send you a download code!

this way they can get around bandcamp taking a HUGE cut of the money you are attempting to donate! please follow the instructions there to donate directly, it would be a shame to unintentionally give a corporation a big percentage of your donation

If you haven’t gotten the BNHA S2 ED single, you’re missing this amazing cover of Earth, Wind, and Fire’s September.

bruh

everything about this… this statue, the choppy waves, the cliffs behind her, the echo, the drumming….. aesthetic

Lyrics in Faroese:

Trøllabundin eri eg eri eg Galdramaður festi meg festi meg Trøllabundin djúpt í míni sál í míni sál Í hjartanum logar brennandi bál brennandi bál

Trøllabundin eri eg eri eg Galdramaður festi meg festi meg Trøllabundin inn í hjartarót í hjartarót Eyga mítt festist har ið galdramaður stóð

English translation:

Spellbound am I, am I The wizard has enchanted me, enchanted me Spellbound deep in my soul, in my soul In my heart burns a smouldering fire, smouldering fire

Spellbound am I, am I The wizard has enchanted me, enchanted me Spellbound in my heart’s root, my heart’s root

Did anyone else just get the shivers? Cuz I’m definitely getting the shivers.

Btdubs, the singer is Eivør Pálsdóttir.

Reblogging again for the haunting wizard lyrics

shoutout to the faroe island for being the only real viking island left

I know the islands are owned by Denmark but this reminds me so much of Iceland

Fun fact this woman is trying to single handedly preserve this kind of singing in her culture by performing and making people aware of it because it’s been fading with time and she’s afraid if she doesn’t spread it it will disappear and be lost to future generations

You can support her here!!

discovering the queer country scene has honestly been so healing because most queer musicians i've seen recommended for years i just couldn't really connect with because it wasn't the sort of music i listened to or had investment in and with queer country it's like. yes. this is the language i speak in. this is Fuck You, I Belong Here Too, not just as a queer person in the country but as a rural person among (sub)urban queers, and saying it with a laugh. when will my hometown take pride in me, goddamn it

Drop the list!!

FIRST: rachel holst does the adobe & teardrops blog as well as the rainbow rodeo newsletter & zine. look into the black opry also, there are plenty of black queer country/folk/americana artists & there is a lot of collaboration between them and other queer country/folk/americana musicians

my personal list:

There ain't no possible way that I'd remember to listen to any of these artists on my own so I made a handy-dandy playlist on Spotify with an on-the-nose title for all the other cowpokes who need to save/bookmark something and come back to it later.

It's basically the most recent album of all the artists listed above. It's about 7 hours long so have at it, y'all

I keep hearing homestuck music in other music and I'm starting to worry that I'm the guy who's only ever listened to homestuck music and hearing other music for the first time. Getting a lot of homestuck vibes from the pizza tower soundtrack.

do you understand what I mean???

Understand my plight....

BTW Mr. Sauceman HAS done music and organized an album for a homestuck fan adventure called "cool and new webcomic." Check it out!!

Some of the guitar parts sound a bit familiar... at least to me

slam that fucking unmute button

“I know I’ve heard this before. Is this from an anime or someth-OH FUCK!”

I WAS FIGHTING TO FIND THIS WOMAN

DELETE THIS POST

ARE YOU FUCKING KIDDING ME

*clicks play in morbid curiosity*

*hammers reblog button*

I think I find this post every April Fools Day and I am so happy that I do

WHAT THE FUCK

i missed it last year so i’ve had this scheduled for an entire damn year

Great, now I need to clean snorted water out of my keyboard.

I hate when this post shows up in my notes again. Stop yelling at me that you would get your back blown out to Chop Suey okay I’m SORRY that the song SCARED ME when I was EIGHT and heard it on WII ROCKBAND so I have an ingrained fear response to it. Stop yelling at me to put cbat in the playlist I don’t care about cbat I don’t care about the Reddit sex man I have a conspiracy theory that it was a plant to promote the musician’s new album that dropped right as the cbat streams were increasing from the Reddit post. And STOP saying “but [this song] is good!” I know it’s good I think MANY of these songs are good and fun to listen to but that doesn’t mean they’re SEXY. I know all the words to the extended big bang theory theme song.

aries - which wolf wins? / i guess it really depends, just gotta wait and see / which one’s appetite’s the biggest

taurus - love is not an easy thing to admit / but i’m not ashamed of it / love is not a weakening, if you feel it rushing in / don’t be ashamed of it

gemini - if you have an opinion / maybe you should shove it / or maybe you could scream it / might be best to keep it / to yourself

cancer - i know that regression is rarely rewarded / i still need a certain degree of disorder / i hate to admit getting better is boring

leo - i romanticise even the worst of times / when all it took to make me cry was being alive / look up and see a reflection / of someone who never gave way to the pain

virgo - i won’t miss this feeling / my flimsy spine, inauspicious mind / i was only being kind / but you mistook me for weak

libra - all for your sake / became the very thing that i hate / i lost my way / spinning in an endless figure / what remains / and now i think i’m losing my shape

scorpio - just like a stray animal / i keep feeding scraps / i give it my energy / and it keeps on coming back

sagittarius - my watch is just for decoration / look, i showed up early for once / now that’s a new sensation

capricorn - only i know where all the bodies are buried / thought by now i’d find ‘em just a little less scary / might get easier, but you don’t get used to it

aquarius - wading through the fog and then it disappears / naked when i’m here / and why should i deny what’s all / at once so crystal clear?

pisces - i should look away because i know you’re never gonna change / i keep thinking this time, the end will be different / but it isn’t
