"Award-winning radio host Fiona Ritchie explores evolving music from Celtic roots in Europe and North America."

Youtube channel that posts tracks from the soundtracks to extremely obscure video games. So obscure that I can't even tell if they're real or if it's an elaborate prank (but they appear to be real)

"Internet-bred familiarity and how we see and treat one another."

really good set by Ross From Friends, still the perfectly balanced intensity of how much I love the music and how much I hate the name

"New covid vaccines inhaled through the nose and mouth could help prevent people from becoming infected or passing on the virus—but questions remain."

"I learned this short and sweet beauty a little while ago when it was released as a preview track for Alvvays new LP Blue Rev. I love the unexpected C demolished chord in the chorus. If I understand these lyrics correctly I think that chord (Cdim actually) makes the phrase “I hear it happens all the time” even more withering and full of delicious pitying scorn. A diminished chord employed to diminish. Love it!"
