masayoshi takanaka

this man is absolutely legendary. if you enjoy japanese jazz/funk fusion, surfboards, star wars, or just straight swagger, Takanaka’s your guy. the 70s musician has that of a cult following– for reference, last week he announced a single show at the Wiltern in Los Angeles with presale tickets going on sale for this Friday October 4th... but tell me why my friend went through LENGTHS to somehow snag tickets on October 1st, which ended up selling out nearly the entire venue, with the $300 pit tickets being the only ones left. even if you don’t like the music, his signature surfboard guitar should get you fucking itching to see him live. i would highly recommend his 1977 album “BRASILIAN SKIES”, which includes STAR WARS SAMBA. it’s exactly what it sounds like: a samba rendition of the Star Wars Theme! the man has entire instagram fan-pages dedicated to that of a single album cover in which he’s skydiving over the vast blue sea. jubilantly, at that. i can’t wait to see him in March 2025, long live Takanaka!

masayoshi Takanaka - “OH! Tengo Suerte”

☆ TILT (2/9/25) ☆ Masayoshi Takanaka is a legendary artist. Most people know him from “Beleza Pula” (and the video where he plays a giant surfboard guitar), but this song — and so many others from his album “Seychelles” — is just a joy to listen to. Link to the song on YouTube

Trying is cool

In order to do what you love in the arts, it means selling out and making "cringe content" but if that's what works and gets you more towards your goals WHY is that a bad thing? We only focus on Cinderella stories, but when did trying become corny? Why is it if you make a tiktok to try and get more eyes on your art it's cringe if it only get 200 views, but if the same video gets 1.4 million it's suddenly cool? Why if you put a lot of effort into something, it's not cool cause you didn't do it naturally and effortlessly? Not caring isn't cool anymore. Showing you're trying hard and giving a shit is what's cool now. I decree it.

Common side effects

Great show, thought it was gonna be some sort of “haha funny laugh laugh” show when I saw the trailer but it’s actually a really gripping storyline with memorable and deep characters that tackle the complexities of Big Pharma. (It’s on the streaming service formerly known as HBO max btw)
