david @dhla.me · 20/09/2026“Who By Fire” Wishing a meaningful fast to those who fast, and a more compassionate year ahead to everyone. 2297
david @dhla.me · 14/09/2026Rabbi Alan Lew - This is Real and You Are Completely Unprepared. Heavy Days of Awe reading. Like much of the best Judaica, there's nary an answer, just more probing questions. And we wonder why Jews are associated with high anxiety... 000
david @dhla.me · 05/09/2026Dinosaur Jr. jamming in a late summer release, all infectious melodies. And the great lyric, “There’s nothing quite as bad as a bored edgelord” 000
david @dhla.me · 04/09/2026I'd love to see the actual language RFK's social media intern used to prompt this, because I guarantee it didn't stop at "suggest they're friends who like to eat healthy and nothing more" 000
david @dhla.me · 03/09/2026Some surprise sunshine, so playing an album that always sounds like summer to me. The included fake ringwear was funnier on the CD cover, really. 040
david @dhla.me · 02/09/2026Apparently the NYC skies are also aware that today is the anniversary of JAMC’s best album. 040
david @dhla.me · 01/09/2026Certainly the most affecting song you'll ever hear named after Octopussy. 110
david @dhla.me · 30/08/2026Anyway, these ideas are piling up. At some point I'll get it all organized/finished? 000
david @dhla.me · 28/08/2026Prolonging the sunshine with Pye Corner Audio's shockingly positive set. 210
david @dhla.me · 23/08/2026instead of reviewing @bugpressure.bsky.social's album Blue Loops in my best-of-2026 so far list, I made fine art. Listen/read on CDM: cdm.link/the-best-les... 131
david @dhla.me · 22/08/2026Did a roundup for CDM of some of my favorite music of 2026 so far that hasn’t been covered as much. Some real gems, and all including preview tracks and links to download/buy. Listen/read on CDM: cdm.link/the-best-les... 020
david @dhla.me · 18/08/2026It’s cliche at this point to praise Sparks for being unique, but they did write a disco hit with Giorgio Moroder here as sung from the perspective of sperm. 030
david @dhla.me · 17/08/2026Reminds me a bit of my favorite ever unintentional glitch art seen at a store selling jewelry and handbags when I lived in SF 010
david @dhla.me · 15/08/2026big scorching weekend sun complemented by the silliest possible version of this sunburnt millennialcore comfort food. 030
david @dhla.me · 05/08/2026Oh hey cool, "Jews and their rotting souls come out in degenerate art" but uh...leftishly? 100
david @dhla.me · 04/08/2026“Every day is a good day to leave the old stuff behind and look forward with confidence” New interview with the legendary and gracious Gigi Masin. We chatted about defining (and avoiding traps in) ambient and jazz, the long web of sampling, and more. 110
david @dhla.me · 03/08/2026Tsunami’s last (and greatest?) album, an alt-rock masterpiece from a band that delivered three of them. Unsparing lyrics, horns and accordions, dissonance and pop. A lot packed in here! Now’s a great opportunity for more great Jenny Toomey albums to get their due - Grenadine reissues? 000
david @dhla.me · 02/08/2026The Sound - best known now as the post-punk band that should have been bigger. It’s hard to think of an album that balances darkness as well as clawing out of despair - kindred spirit to Echo and the Bunnymen’s Heaven Up Here. 011
david @dhla.me · 27/07/2026The pseudoscience woo always seems to lead there doesn’t it? Makes me think of when B.o.B. did that flat-earther/UFO/whatever else conspiracy track and told people to follow David Irving in the same breath. 020
david @dhla.me · 20/07/20261/ Of course this guy with that stupid theater marquee has to add that he cleans toilets because he truly believes that the antisemitic crap he spews is just the average for any working Joe. portlandtribune.com/2026/07/17/l... 292
david @dhla.me · 14/07/2026Real joy when artists with obsessive ears come to revisit their catalogue. New way to discover details in an old favorite. 000
david @dhla.me · 13/07/2026New bliss from The Field, a very welcome return. The samples still hit right in the heart and soul, but the structure and drums find different grooves. Less kick anchored and more fluid at points, making for an enveloping blanket. Drifty and dreamy. 030
david @dhla.me · 09/07/2026It’d be one thing to ask for support in emails or calls to party officials, but the deadline for a Platner replacement is in less than three weeks. There is no way to do another primary in that time. So what exactly is Troy Jackson fundraising for here? 000
david @dhla.me · 08/07/2026I know this (fantastic adventure of an) album has seen some mixed reactions, which is why 1) I scored a deal on this copy and 2) yet again I have better taste than you. 010
david @dhla.me · 07/07/2026The fact that he thinks he's in a position to demand anything is yet another reason why he's a terrible candidate. His job now is to drop quickly and let other people try to clean up his mess. Via: www.nytimes.com/2026/07/06/u... 040
david @dhla.me · 07/07/2026This is getting nauseating. Literally comparing him to Jesus because he SA'd multiple people and palled around with Nazis. Yeah, "whomst among us..." 450
