The official music video has some jiggly bits.
Huh, I thought it's the violence and all the blood.
Couple of weeks back, FINALLY unpacked the new headphones I've been sitting on for a couple of years and, while searching for something to test out the 96/24 playback mode, discovered this thing called "8D" where people remix songs for surround/binaural listening. This has also led to people claiming "16D," "24D," or "32D" mixes, and frequently the remixes are used as a bit of a gimmick, such as this one for Enya's "Only Time," which feels like it is playing on a set of speakers that are orbiting your head (assuming you are wearing headphones while listening to it, that is). Which is a neat effect, but it's not why I'm posting today. No, that would be for these two:
I'd never heard of Bliss before, but this went straight into the evening "wind-down" playlist.
And if you're any kind of Stevie Ray Vaughan fan, this stuff is amazing.

Lately I've been just fucking obsessed with a group called Manchester Orchestra. I know most of you probably already know them. I'm always a step behind. But damn this guy's voice and songwriting is amazing.
This is the one that got me started on them. The video actually made me tear up a little.
This is a song I honestly didn't care for the first time I heard it but now I have to say it's one of my favorites.
The lyrics in this one don't match the video but I absolutely love it.
And finally, probably one of my favorite songs by them. These guys are just incredible. Oh, and if you liked the movie Swiss Army Man the lead singer wrote & sang all of the songs for that movie.

Look into Andy's solo stuff, Right Way, Great Captain!.
I hesitate to put any single songs here since the albums are concept albums that should be listened to in order about a 17th-century sailor who catches his wife in an affair with his brother and the ensuing life he leads afterward but here are a few of my favourites.

I really like mashups. Especially good ones.
One of the better artists on YouTube (and elsewhere) is Wax Audio.
Turns out he also has a radio show/podcast of sorts.
Also turns out he does ... synthwave?

There is a Peter Schickele piece which he introduces as, "...completely original, and not influenced by any other composer," or words to that effect. It then proceeds, of course, to copy themes from and reference just about every other famous piece of (Western) classical music you can think of. Can't seem to find a performance of it, but this reminded me of that (mostly because of the title).

So Todd in the Shadows has finally done it. His "One Hit Wonderland" retrospective series has finally addressed the biggest one hit wonder of all time. The scourge of the late 90s. The bane of Generations Boomer through Millenial. The earworm and dance craze that shook the nation and the world and probably had a measurably negative effect on global productivity:
The Macarena.
The Macarena.
Don't act like you haven't done the macarena. I've done it, you've done it, this blood curse is on all of us.
But I see your TitS and raise you Pat Finnerty

"Kitchen Song" - Tessa Violet
More of a classic pop/love song than most of Tessa's songs (which are more modern, and tend to be experimental), I can see this one getting a lot of play.
