Dinner (New) Music: April 2025
italian library, middle east funk, twang (always)
Maybe every month I’ll want to start by saying “there is so much good music,” but there is so much good music. We’ve got indie, neo-library, middle east funk, noise, country twang (hi Lauren Watkins, my country love), bossa, and lots more.
If you listen to nothing else, listen to Silk & Velvet by Annahstasia (Spotify | Apple). When I first heard this, I think my response was something like: “absolutely incredible. Totally blown away.” (thx
!!) The build on this is so good.And then, of course, there’s Lorde, a longtime hyper-fixation of mine.
I’m also highlighting a favorite edition from the archive: An exploration of soundtracks from the golden age of pornography. Paid subscribers now have access to the specific playlist without needing to dig through the archive.
