    Best Music 🎵 of 2025!

    Wonderful to see Circuit Des Yeux on a favorites list. It will likely be on mine as well (her record -io is one of my top10 of 2021) for now.

    Went to see Ichiko Aoba (青葉市子) this past Sunday, one of my all time favorite Japanese musicians (and in general). My second time seeing her, with my first having been two and a half years ago in one of the smallest Portland venues. Her acclaim since 2020's breathtaking Windswept Adan has amassed...

    Day 19 - Spin any soundtrack - tv or film Keiji Kawai (川井憲次) - Ghost in the Shell Original Soundtrack Wholly transformative and influential. Animation in the 90s was transcendent. The content within the Ghost in the Shell franchise is incredibly horrifying, beneath the cyberpunk surface.

    Day 18 - Spin any record by an artist that you have not yet seen live but want to Kali Malone - Living Torch She's on my small bucket list of performers (about 10 on there right now) but it'll probably never happen in Portland. To my knowledge, there isn't an organ in town where the quality...

    @musicjunkiegreg I will say that I haven't listened to anywhere near the volume of metal that you have this year and therefore don't have enough to pit it against. I wouldn't expect your opinion on this to elevate further with another retread.

    @musicjunkiegreg I really love it. After having gone through Ordinary Corrupt Human Love and Infinite Granite of which I didn't really like either (owned the former on 2xLP; traded in to a local record store two years ago), I'm elated that they've returned to the form that initially captivated...

    Day 17 - Great live performance / recording Terry Riley - Descending Moonshine Dervishes Truly one of my Achilles heels and hopefully will never change. Classified as a live album, despite no applause present on the recording. A hypnotic swath of analog synthesis, as one should expect from...

    @musicjunkiegreg I guess I should mention that ~90% of the time that I go to concerts alone. Prior to 2018, I was always alongside parents/relatives.
