Listening to Self Titled by Kae Tempest for the first time and honestly just blown away. It’s urgent and driven and it packs a punch that hits even harder because of the moment we’re in.

The cover of Kae Tempest’s album Self Titled, showing a black and white image of the back of someone’s (probably Kae) head, with short buzz cut hair. Also you should listen to this album.

I’m not religious, but I believe in the Holy Trinity.

Just discovered what appears to be a kindred spirit living in my neighborhood.

A bumper sticker that reads “STOP HONKING! I’m trying to figure out what Cocteau Twins are saying…”

Yeah, that looks about right. Hammock = ambient I play to fall asleep almost every night. If you remove them, nr. 5 would have been Elbow. Rounding out the top ten: Dead Can Dance, Nilufer Yanya, Fink, and The Cure.)

My top 5 most played artists this year: Mohawk, Cocteau Twins, Hammock, Khruangbin, Meshell Ndegeocello.

Quick music rec: Common Saints finally released its first full length album after several acclaimed EPs, and it’s excellent as expected. Dreamy, floaty psych-soul with 70s soul/R&B influences. This is one guy playing and producing almost everything. Sample track: Idol Eyes youtu.be/TrOQ64ADoBM?...

Today I learned that the taco truck parked outside Société, one of my favorite craft breweries in San Diego, is awesome. Now I have yet another reason to come here!
