Janelle Monáe - Dirty Computer

I had to do a couple of hours of driving today, and I spent most of it with this album on repeat.  It's quirky, deep, funny, and replete with amazing beats.

I don't know how to share the actual music but lately I have been listening to a lot of Chris LeDoux and I am a huge fan of a young man named Alex Schofield. My wife and I used to organize a concert fundraiser for a local charity and he performed at it the last year we did the fundraiser. He is now a singer-songwriter in Nashville and a touring musician.

I haven't listened to Chris Ledoux in a long time, but I am a HUGE fan of 90s Country!

I am more of a 60's and 70's guy but some 90's are good. My favorite LeDoux song is This Cowboys Hat and Alex Schofield I recommend Sweet Simona and/or Headstone

Title is "Gdzie jest biały węgorz? (Zejście)" and by Cypis. The song is essentially about drugs and depression.

Here would be the original:

If you really understand the song (which I do), it's not as happy as it seems.

Great folk/blues music from a fairly new artist. Donut Larsen. My faves on this album are Heather, Ghost of You, and Whiskey Drinking Martyr(https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20260115/283159e39509401992bba0b50332dbc8.jpg)

Today, I've been playing just this Sea Shanties mix.  Remember the six months when everyone adored Wellerman?

My family is big on YouTube Music. We grandfathered some benefits from Google Music into YouTube Red (now Premium), and to me this bundle is totally worth it.

I really dislike how little Spotify pays its artists, but I need audiobook access and podcast access, unfortunately.  TidaL pays artists much better, but it doesn't have those things.  I better look into Apple Music and YouTube Music to see what their compensation rates might be.

I've been listening to this. (Well, I just started listening to it this morning on the way to work, only got it in the mail yesterday.)
As far as I know, this is the earliest known live recordings of the Bad Brains, recently unearthed somewhere, remastered, and finally released 45 years after they were recorded.
I haven't gotten to disc two yet, but disc one is great. I settled for CD, because the vinyl (released on Record Store Day) is already going for ridiculous prices.

I've also been listening to this group a lot. I've seen them twice in concert and finally bought an album (which I hope to have the band members autograph next time I see them.)
All the members are from Toronto, Canada, except the new drummer, who is from Akron. She was previously in a couple of punk bands from Akron, and she's fantastic.
They are going to be doing another show in Akron in April. I plan on being there.
Most of their stuff is original material, but they also play a few covers of other surf instrumental band's tunes.

Nice!

I've been listening to a lot of this traditional Korean gayageum music in the background lately.

It almost feels needless to say, but because I have small children, this album has been played hundreds of times at this point.  (Actually I love it.)

Well, I'm not sure I'd ever hate a song just because of its genre, but I certainly believe that it's overplayed!  It's crazy how popular it is.
