Mike Doughty @mikedoughty.bsky.social · 27/05/2025Somebody told me that here in Rome there’s a monument, built in the 1930s by the fascists, that says “to the poets and the heroes,” meaning military heroes. Kind of a jolt to be in a country where *even the fascists read poetry*. 2110

Mike Doughty @mikedoughty.bsky.social · 20/04/2025I’m a little surprised to be saying this, but the new Skrillex album is the best piece of long-form music I’ve heard in a long time. It’s almost prog—really one long journey. Got to be listened to in full, in sequence. And the sonics are immaculate. Who’s the mix engineer?? 1180

Mike Doughty @mikedoughty.bsky.social · 03/02/2025My takeaway from the Grammys is that the music business doesn’t think highly of itself. The Oscars say, “Look at our storied, glamorous world, embodying high and low, grand and intimate, populist and niche, a pinnacle of human expression.” The Grammys say HEY WOW LOOK AT THE MONEY 0253

Mike Doughty @mikedoughty.bsky.social · 22/01/2025Fellow Memphis peeps: the Feagins thing? I am not finding any background info—even on Reddit. Why was she fired? Why do all the people who didn’t want her fired support her so fiercely? 020

Mike Doughty @mikedoughty.bsky.social · 01/01/2025I learned from a NYE DJ that the most recent #1 song recorded in Memphis was “Uptown Funk.” The second most recent #1 song recorded in Memphis came out in 1976. That song was “Disco Duck.” 3444

Mike Doughty @mikedoughty.bsky.social · 19/12/2024Yes, Kendrick won. He’s fantastic. But Drake’s hooks, phrasing, tone: uncanny. I hear Kendrick and think, “That guy’s great,” but I hear Drake songs and add them to playlists, listen repeatedly. Drake’s the only guy who could make the hook of this tune into a *hook*. Also: genius cover. 131
Mike Doughty @mikedoughty.bsky.social · 17/12/2024This is a song I’ve listened to continuously on repeat in 2024. To me the most phenomenal thing about Jensen McCrae is the way she sings vowels. Her vowels are just astonishing. Like burnished brass and cotton wool at the same time. 1190
Mike Doughty @mikedoughty.bsky.social · 16/12/2024My favorite music this year was this freaky, aggressive, transgressive, utterly DIFFERENT Brazilian music. I can’t for some reason post the Spotify link, but this is the playlist if you can find it 3171
