    I started with Pinboard but it was to brutalist for me - right now I´m saving them at are.na - it´s more a sort of social bookmarking but I´m satisfied with their service and the stuff i find...

    The vocals were sampled from Nana Mouskouris "Küsse süßer als Wein" - a beautiful greek-german folk song. You should definitely have a listen If you like the remix from Bent.

    They have a nice 00`s electro-indie vibe. Reminds me of the days when hypemachine was big and the best of the year lists were filled with indie rock LP's.

    Joy as an Act of Resistance is definitely the LP I'm most hyped about this year. I really liked their last LP Brutalism, which was - to my mind - more personal than the tracks from the upcoming album - even though the loss of Joe's daughter will definitely play a huge role. IDLES are the band we (I) need in this weird times.

    Back streets of the internet is a short documentary about a Japanese art collective that organizes parties and other events. The focus is on events that combine Internet and real places - for example, they organize Internet black markets where applications can be purchased that are not allowed in the App Store or art that in some way deals with Internet subculture. The documentary gives an interesting insight into Japan's internet counterculture.

    Wow never heard of it before but there are definitely a lot of hidden treasures. I think I'm going to spend the next days digging through the "best of all time". Thanks!

    I haven´t listened to the new album but I heard read great reviews about it. I think he is some one of a few producers who successfully escaped the Tape-House bubble which was building up over the last years. I totally get your reference with Nym - I think both have the same dreamish style coming up in their tracks. Another reference I have when listening to this song are the DJ Koze tracks from his last LP - especially when it comes to the weird/unusual sounds.

    Maybe it's the two beers I just drank, but the track is picking me up. I'm pretty surprised it has 2000 views. Great Find.

    Odd Couple(1,2) - They are a rock band from Berlin with german texts and got a lot of this 70s krautrock style - besides that some tracks remind me of the old Black Sabbath. Even though they got german texts I have the impression, that they could build up an international fanbase

    IDLES (1,2) - IDLES are a punk band from England. I was listening a lot to their last album, after i moved to Berlin an was fucked up about my new job. Their last album was pretty dark and heavy and to my mind, the main focus was on death of the frontman´s mother. The tracks from the next LP are more abstract/holistic. Samaritans is about toxic masculinity and Danny Nedelko is about Solidarity with immigrants. I´m super excited about their new LP, cause they are tackling some issues I was thinking a lot about the last months.

    Júlio Cruz - Thank U - I didn´t wanted to end this post with just Rock or Punk Tracks." Thank U" is a proper House Track with a beautiful sample from Alicia Myers and a good track for friday evening.
