TWO GREAT NOT-NEW BUT RECENT ‘80s sounding records that complement each other

https://breathers.bandcamp.com/album/designed-to-break https://thehecksdotcom.bandcamp.com/album/my-star These bands likely didn’t know each other but they have a very specific, future-forward-from-the-past aesthetic that shines on both of these albums. Breathers are maybe more arcane and really floor the FM synth lane nobody wants to be in, and The Hecks are a little more muscular and referential. Both are weird, memorable, nervous, overlooked albums.

Iglooghost - TME

TME is Iglooghost’s most conventional album and it still makes me fucking crazy – like I’m freebasing nicotine and cocaine at the same time, while on one of those rollercoasters that drops at a 90-degree angle. Part of that disorienting feeling, this time around, comes from textures and sounds I didn’t expect: post-punk drums on “Coral Mimic”; the electro beat on “Nemat0de”. I’m sick to death of “genreless” music; Tidal Memory Exo was a genre unto itself.

Takes the creative approach of maybe Cluster or Boards of Canada, but in a fresher way (yeah I know it's a decade old now) - killer sounds for the freaks

Ordering Domino’s

There’s “real new york pizza” down the street that I could walk and get right now but sometimes, mediocre at best pizza that reminds you of simpler times is what u really need

Making friends in your neighborhood

Join your community garden! Go to local events! Continue to show up even if you feel kinda awkward in the beginning! Get involved in your neighborhood in some way and I promise it’ll change your life for the better. Even if it’s just for the random convos you get to have when you run into someone on the street that you’ve met before or gaining a local friend that can water your plants or pick up packages while you’re away, it feels good to feel like you’re a part of something bigger than yourself.
