This band from New Zealand sounds like their performances would involve a laptop full of tracks that they work around, but in fact they pride themselves on playing all of the parts live. An unusual feat for artists in this genre.

I’m always curious to see artist bios on Spotify. They can be anything from copypasta from their Wikipedia page or promotional materials to some very brief and/or tongue-in-cheek introductions by the artist themselves. In this case: “Joey is a guy from Michigan who makes music for your emotions:)”

This artist was the performer of the week on a show that I’ve been working on. His set included some combinations of very high and not-so-high production values.

Lil Wayne performed on a show that I’m working on and now I can’t stop listening to the song Rich As Fuck. Give it a listen.

A dive into the world of theramin recordings led a friend of mine to this artist. And possibly to my pending purchase of a theramin. I’m sure it will be useful.

In the midst of Kanye West’s antisemitic tour through social media and the worst of the right wing mouthpieces, I came across an article paying tribute to the Jewish producers that were responsible for some of his biggest hits, including today’s artist.
