14/20 - When You Leave The House Of Judgement

First day back at work after holidays today. Let's pretend this summer is a smorgasbord of fun, with no social distancing and amazing times at the beach...



Caroline Polachek - Door

New favourite sing-along chorus. Very simple, but somehow syllabically super satisfying. Also, anything that makes me feel like me and Caroline Polachek is a team.... I'm in. As one of the YouTube commentators put it "Can't believe she invented doors. So cool."



Neon Indian - Toyota Man

Yes! Finally another hit song smuggling in anti-racist politics under cover of a children's choir!


Conchita Velasco - Calor

How good was the third season of Killing Eve? Plot-wise: not as good as the first two. In terms of style, cinematography, fun, and soundtrack: another level.
La ropa llega a molestar. Let's throw them off and por la playa caminar!


Jean Grae & Quelle Chris - My Contribution To This Scam

Been hip hop since Kriss Kross was turnin' pants 'round
< This is a reference I deeply appreciate. As well as dozens of other clever lines in this wry, strange commentary on the state of rap and culture.


CHAI - Future

So, at 37 years of age I have found my new drug of choice. Quite surprisingly, it is japanese punk band CHAI. And what exquisite highs I get! If you should be feeling down and low, I prescribe queuing up all of CHAI's videos on YouTube. If you don't feel significantly happier after that, I don't think our bodies contain the same basic chemical compounds.
