figure 8
Recently Paramore have dropped a new album called This Is Why. The only other album by the band that I know really well is After Laughter, but after the new singles I already knew that the new record would make it into my playlists. By far my favourite track is Figure 8. It reminds me… Continue reading figure 8
swimming
One of my favourite things to do in the world is swimming. It makes me feel free and at home. Guess it's no surprise that a song called Swimming - this one being by Florence + the machine - peaks my interest. I mostly know the demo / live version found on Between Two Lungs.… Continue reading swimming
visual analysis
A while ago I saw a video on YouTube (see below) about pop music. There was a method used to analyse the lyrics of modern pop songs: Visually. It clicked with me, I immediately had to try it. It's described in the video as well, but in short: the words of the lyrics are written… Continue reading visual analysis
kyouran hey kids!!
It's about time I finally talk about one of my top three bands - The Oral Cigarettes. I'm not sure anymore if they were one of my Spotify finds or if I found them through the anime Noragami, but either way - at this point I've listened to all their albums heaps of times, and… Continue reading kyouran hey kids!!
dreaming out loud
One of my favourite albums and songs alike has been, for an incredibly long time, Dreaming Out Loud by OneRepublic. I vividly remember finding the album in front of my door with a lot of chocolate on a morning in some December in the past. I saw an interview with Ryan Tedder around the time… Continue reading dreaming out loud
life’s gonna kill you (if you let it)
The singer of my favourite band recently started a solo project. These projects are fairly common, and fun to witness from the consumer's perspective. Understanding how the single person's style ties into the music of the band helps with understanding the person doing the solo project and understanding the whole band a little better. It… Continue reading life’s gonna kill you (if you let it)
howling
Many years ago I was browsing Spotify to find new music, clicking through similar artists until I found what I was looking for: To Kill A King. Forever one of the main reasons I am grateful for music streaming, cause I doubt I would've ever heard their music without it. I only found out much… Continue reading howling
sober
This is an older piece for the song Sober by Lorde. I adore Melodrama, it's my favourite album by her. This piece was a lot of fun to make, creating the bottle and its contents and deconstructing it. It's very accurate with the lines pointing exactly to the position the item is in on the… Continue reading sober
love come get me
This is an hommage to festivals, live music and warm summer nights. In the city close to the town I grew up in there's a festival each year - no camping, but more than a week of live music outside on a bunch of different stages. At the start of 2020 I moved to the… Continue reading love come get me
