jim jarmusch's early work
After Jarmusch's NYU thesis film, Permanent Vacation (which I do not recommend), Jarmusch went on to make three very solid ultra low budget films; Stranger Than Paradise (1984), Down By Law (1986), and Mystery Train (1989). Each of these films has a lot of heart and feature the likes of Tom Waits, John Lurie, Screamin' Jay Hawkins, Joe Strummer, Roberto Benigni, and a very young Steve Buscemi, amongst others. They are some of my favorite comfort films, and are beautifully shot by the GOAT, Robby Müller.

Night on earth (1991) - dir. Jim Jarmusch
brief encounters captured in 5 late night taxi cabs around the globe, incredibly charming!!
NY and Rome were highlights for me (real belly laughs) but the b-roll of Jitlada in LA really sealed the deal <33

David berman
Poet & songwriter best known as the frontman of “Silver Jews,“ and the lesser known “Purple Mountains,“ Berman has a way of exploring the beauty in the darker aspects of life. Berman tragically took his in 2019. He had such a special way with words both as a poet and a songwriter. My favorite song of his, “Famous Eyes” is linked above.

Broadcast
Founded in 1995, Broadcast was an English band that drew influences from 60s psychedelia, electronic, and experimental music. Following the death of their lead singer in 2011, Broadcast has found a new life and a cult following due to the mystery surrounding the band. I’ve linked my favorite album, Tender Buttons above.

Perfectly imperfect x baby’s all right pulling out of sxsw
Due to the involvement of the US Military Sponsoring SXSW, many bands and artists have opted to pull out of SXSW as protest for the ongoing genocide and Ethnic Cleansing in Palestine. I’m very proud of my friends from Perfectly Imperfect and Baby’s All Right for dropping out of SXSW, and for standing in solidarity with the people of Palestine. Free Palestine 🍉
