Second all these and would add pop 2 - charli xcx // club shy ep - shygirl // encore - shygirl // locals (girls like us) - underscores // vixen - Ayesha erotica // sex paranoia - goldilo // belladonna - slayyter
I‘ve been wanting to get more into hyperpop-y, experimental pop, psychedelic pop, and electronic-pop type music but I have no clue where to start, I’m willing to give anything a listen:)
some artists i like that fit into those genres already: rebecca black, charli, mag bay, FKA twigs, she’s green, tanuki-chan, caroline loveglow, getting into imogen heap
WHEN THE PAWN : fiona apple. just lovley. just insane. every track is a banger but one. you know the one. i listen to it anyway. my faves are on the bound, to your love, a mistake, and i know. AMNESIAC : radiohead truly the better more beautiful sister of Kid A. more experimental, more weird and freaky, more of thom yorke just being a funny guy. i listen to this album front to back at least once a month. my record is 6 times in one day. i was in colorado on the most beautiful hike and i listened to the album during and after, so now i see the mountains when i hear it. TO PIMP A BUTTERFLY : kendrick lamar i don’t listen to kendrick regularly, but this album is LOVELYYYYY it’s so so good and the narrative builds throughout the album so you really gotta sit through the whole thing sometime. For Free? is the best track idc. these walls is a close second. I GOT HEAVEN : mannequin pussy YUM YUM YUMMYYYYYYY. the punk and pop mix is so good it makes me feel like i am so hot and sexy kiss kiss mannequin pussy i love you GIRL WITH FISH : feeble little horse favorite album as of late. it’s so fun and poetic and shoegazy and folky all at once. Steamroller is a banger. HOMEBODY : homebody weird project started by a local ABQ band. show them some love! weird stuff, but it’s really fun. PUSSY WHIPPED : bikini kill probably my all time fav punk album. it was released before Joan Jett reproduced all their stuff so you really get that diy off beat feel. the constant anger throughout and the switch into For Tammy Rae is so fun. i personally love alien she and tammy rae.
being traditionally cool is really quite boring and iterative, and it’s actually very cool and sexy to geek out about something you like or share bits of knowledge on a topic you’re passionate about
HAPPY INTERNATIONAL WORKER’S DAY!!!! i love having a union, i love being a union steward and getting to support my unit. when my union won its contract, i got a pay bump, better benefits, and increased protection as a worker. 🥳
unions help address racial and gender pay gaps, issues workplaces impose on families and those having kids, addressing unsafe conditions, plus things like better health insurance, wages and overtime, weingarten rights to representation, and more!!!
if you don’t have a union but are thinking about forming one, check out AFL-CIO’s page (linked) or Emergency Workplace Organizing Committee. there’s always more power in a union!! ✊🥖🌹
