Music Monday: Arcade Fire
Arcade Fire have won plenty of awards for their music and other technical/creative aspects. These include Brits, Grammys, and two members (Will Butler and Owen Pallett) even received an Academy Award Nomination for Best Original Score for Her. Everyone surely has heard of Arcade Fire or at least their most popular song Wake Up. Wake Up was featured in Spike Jonze's Where the Wild Things Are and commercials for the NFL in 2010.
Music Monday: Fleet Foxes
I often go back and forth between writing and not writing some blog posts. Especially when it comes to music but not posting about it wouldn't make this blog true to who I am. I don't feel like my taste in music is why anyone reads this blog to begin with, but I'm certainly not writing posts strictly to get likes (although those are pretty cool). So after some time of indecisiveness (a couple weeks really) I decided to give it a go. Plus I just love the new Fleet Foxes record so much.
What I'm Listening To, Volume 3 - June 2017
I'm really excited by all the new music coming out lately. Every day it feels like I have something new to check out. Most of the time it feels like I've traveled back in time to 2010 or 2011 with all these new releases from Fleet Foxes, Arcade Fire, and Phoenix. I've heard the Fleet Foxes but need more time to fully absorb and process it this week when it officially comes out. Maybe I'll have to write about some new music to check out later on.
Monthly Edit: May
May has been a pretty weird one. Between celebrating my birthday multiple times and finishing off the semester, I'm feeling pretty exhausted. I didn't know I could feel so emotionally and physically drained, but here we are. I hope the cosmos have some really great things in store for me in June because who knows how much more I can take. So while I hope for some good universe alignment to come my way, I managed to find some things that were pretty cool this month to enhance the lives of others.
What I'm Listening To, Volume 1: February 2017
What I'm Listening To features a mix of new music I really like. old favorites I've heard recently, and just songs on my radar. While I love theme mixes or mixes curated with a purpose, sometimes it's just fun to get back to basics.
