Compilations and samplers from record labels and such *should* be really great ways of finding new artists in theory. But it's strange, I almost never end up listening to compilations or samplers. I think maybe some of it is because all those artists and recording levels all over the place is a little stressful and overwhelming, and I also think it's because I usually end up focusing on LPs (or EPs or singles) from just one artist at a time. Even splits are supposed to be good for ge…

Dear people in #Gaza, I know that your situation is dreadful and that there are many of you in urgent need. I am a poor man and I am already supporting as many as I can. If you appeal to me I will pass your appeal on to others who may be able to help you, but I cannot support you directly myself.
Ik heb wel zin in een 'actie format' waar mensen steun kunnen vinden voor die positieve actie.
#WijZijnMetMeer lijkt me daar wel een logisch motto voor.

I'm not even big on Scarlett Johansson usually, but tried out Under the Skin from 2013 on a whim, and wow, this was a wild one. Some pacing and editing issues (as all modern films seem to have) but I really dug this - the ending is bonkers and then your confusion will all make sense. I do love knowing NOTHING about a film going in.
