"Why, why so quiet / oh my, mysterious country singer" she asked.

☆ It's surprising how I haven't updated this thing even though I've had nothing but free-time for the past 2 months. Except I was in zombie-mode for a while. But here I am now. 2012 has been an interesting year for music, I have to say. July is going to be me obsessing over that TNGHT EP and waiting super anxiously for that opening ceremony of the Olympics that Underworld directed musically. And let's not touch how ridiculous September is going be. I am really excited for that month.

But anyways, let me give you my highlights of the past week.

★ Kings of Convenience | 140 listens | Why? I felt nostalgic. And I haven't listened to their entire discography and felt pretty guilty about it. So here we go. And "Riot On An Empty Street" is a great song. They have quite a few great songs actually. Everyone should listen to them.

★ Matthewdavid | 57 listens | Why? Thought it was about time I get into the meat of his discography instead of one XLR8R mix and 2 free tracks from there. And what can I say, I love the warm hazy soundscapes of DISK II. And then the beats of Jewelry.

★ Spaceghostpurrp | 32 listens | Why? Finally listened to that shiny debut album. Did I like it? It's alright. It's not the most earth-shattering thing. Plus a few tracks that were on the mixtapes weren't improved upon. (BIGGEST EVIDENCE: "Been Fweago" - I miss the key change in the middle and the "OKAY OKAY"s and "RIDE"s. ) But "The Black God" and "Suck A Dick 2012" had good newer versions, so that made me relieved. And then I found 2 mixtapes that I HAVEN'T LISTENED TO by him and yeah. That was yesterday, so I don't think that factored in. Maybe this week it will?

★ RYAT | 21 listens | Why? On my Twitter feed, there was some re-tweeting going on about this girl's new album and I thought "WHY NOT". I first heard "Invisibly Ours" and that was one of the two songs in which she really sounds like Björk. So that surprised me. But the rest of the album definitely she didn't really sound like her. I forget what the one other song is, but whatever. It has some standout songs, like "Object Mob", "Seahorse", and that ending of "Hummingbird". The experimental nature of the instrumentals definitely can remind you of Björk too. Not quite sure what to make of her sound yet though.

★ Audio Bullys | 20 listens | Why? Nostalgia, again. Except I never listened to Generation or Higher Than The Eiffel. It's been a struggle amongst the other music I've gotten to listen to them though. It doesn't help that Generation isn't very exciting for the most part. They're not really the best group ever really. ∂v∂;

☆ I'll try to update this more often, hahahahaha. We'll see. ;3
