Trippin' Travel Guide '76
This mix takes us on a trip around the globe. While the odd English word appears, most of this 12-hour 6-part mix is sung in languages that are not, in fact, English. There was a lot going on in 1976, worldwide. Explore a bit with this.

Me: Isn't it weird that Stanley Kubrick died of a supposed heart attack only a few days after hosting a screening of 'Eyes Wide Shut,' the movie he made about a billionaire sex conspiracy?

Jeffrey Epstein: whoops

I posted about it, but nobody cared, so I deleted it. I said, "Suck it, Greenwich!" And then explained that I didn't actually have anything against standard time. Prolly wasn't funny.

Beautiful pressings, Slumberland.

For what it's worth, I'm not sure if history is going to look back fondly on all those n-words. I think the 'Kill Bill' movies are his best work overall, but he did almost kill Uma Thurman making them, and more stories like that keep coming out too, so his legacy will be complicated, at best.

I still use Apple Music to maintain my library, but it is a shell of what it used to be. It used to discover art for you, but if you click that now, it adds a ten second repeat glitch to the end of every file. I miss the iTunes, when I could manage my ringtones in-app and tag my audiobooks too.

I skimmed the article until I got to the hour-by-hour breakdown. I think the article was written just to piss off Gen Xers. Having an MP3 player is a privilege, not a sacrifice. I used to walk around trying not to make my discman skip. Cassettes were a superior alternative, in that regard.

Honestly, I fondly think back on my days running around with one of these. I didn't update this thing more than once a week. It held my entire collection at the time, 160GB. I have more than that on my phone now, but I could also just listen to what is on my phone for a month. I don't Spotify.

The genocide in Gaza is wrong.
The war in Iran is wrong.
Antisemitism is wrong.

Sorry about that. Sometimes I just have to woke a bit. Lotta killing happening these days. That sure sucks. Would be nice if people used all that bomb money for education and healthcare instead, just sayin'.

Hobbyist, by elastic stars 10 track album

Colin Cowan is a gem. This album deserved more love in 2025.

He probably doesn't have any beefs. The world is finally at peace.

Nice one. Not sure if I have seen Ora live before. Stoked she signed to @sacredbones.bsky.social, though. That's huge.

He's been shaking a lot of necks lately.
