Danish Music Primer (what is this life)

I just drank a lot of coffee, so we can keep going for a while. 


when in Denmark, people ride bikes a-lot



pickings are getting SLIM as we circle Scandinavia. it's all good, though. Mother Denmark birthed us Oh Land. who can hate on that?


And I love Oh Land. To get further into detail would be redundant. just click on the tag please.


Next up! ALPHABEAT! 



do you not listen to that and feel ecstatic? damn right. 

The Raveonettes! 
garage rock, jangly Jesus and Mary Chain lite, really.





and don't forget what traditionally is the realm of Denmark itself...Danish rock!


i.e. GO BACK TO THE ZOO


and that's it for Denmark.

    Also: VETO and Mew! I like Danish things. But apparently Danish people are super sarcastic and have kind of a mean sense of humour thus they make Swedes cry. They taught me this at school.

    Is it okay if I comment in every post? I'm a teensy bit drunk possibly.

"Mon Soleil" - Ashley Park

If there's anything people take away from my piss-poor legacy, I hope it's what a huge, unabashed fan of "Emily in Paris" I am and will continue to be. People love "90 Day Fiancee," "The Bachelor," and other garbage - allow me "Emily," which is at least harmless, kind of goofy fluff (which does, unfortunately, lean into some stereotypes, as the country of Ukraine knows ). I have already watched Season 2 twice. And honestly my favorite part of this show (despite my crush on Camille Razart and Lily Collins channeling Audrey Hepburn hardcore ) is Ashley Park.

She's a bona fide Broadway star, and "Emily in Paris" has served as her pivot into the zeitgeist.  "Emily in Paris" is also showcasing her vocal prowess front and center this season, with her covering BTS, "All By Myself," "Sympathtique," and Marilyn Monroe. But the real standout performance is th

"Anchors" - AM Higgins

Here's a nice breezy, almost sensual song from AM Higgins (the solo project of musician Annie Toth) to start your Tuesday off right.  Her debut album "Hymning" will be out November 5th on Victorialand Records. The album was mixed by Casey Foubert, a frequent collaborator of Sufjan Stevens. The album "captures the first years of moving from an American city to rural France." Sounds like "Hymning" will be a welcome escape from the world we live in right now, especially considering that Annie Toth counts poets Mary Oliver and Thomas Merton as influences.

Summer Playlist - 2022 Edition!

 It's truly the little things in life that make a world of difference. And for me, that means my summer playlist! Behold, I have put together 2022's edition. It includes cuts from artists like: - Mitski - Uffie - Johnny Orlando - Kylie Minogue + Jessie Ware - Florence and the Machine (who put out a fantastic album this year after a long dry spell of kind of "meh" records. Her pairing with Jack Antonoff worked out quite well!)  - Bilal - Harry Styles (he has some catchy music!)  - KATE BUSH DUH - And of course, Lana. It's also available on Apple Music, but since I recognize a lot of folks use Spotify, here's that link. Enjoy!
