David Sanborn passed away yesterday. He worked with so many artists of different genres.

The last time Macklemore was really culturally relevant it was for songs like 2013’s “Thrift Shop.” Times have certainly changed. Last week, the rapper dropped “Hind’s Hall,” a blistering protest anthem that takes aim at Israel’s assault on Gaza and comes as student protests have spread around the world. Will “Hind’s Hall” usher in a new era of musical political activism? Vox has more, including why Macklemore’s political shift isn’t as surprising as you might think. https://flip.it/nwByYp

"Music to Buy Toasters By" by the Sherman Brothers for the 1964 New York Worlds Fair
Despite how dark things are around the world right now I still believe that "there’s a great big beautiful tomorrow" that’s just a dream a way. We have to fight for it but we will get there.

nope. I did find that setting the Tidal quality to High instead of Lossless will stream in MP4 and that might be the fix.
The #Music Assistant devs don't have Sonos speakers. I'm sure this bug could be fixed, but they aren't interested in spending time on it. Which is fine, I'm sure they have a lot of other things to work on.
I replied to my original issue with my latest findings and others might find it useful

Of all the music that I've listened to in life, INXS remains the band that has been with me the longest.
It all started with their album "Kick" when I was in middle school. It was the music that I associate with my high school years and beyond.
My favorite song continues to be "New Sensation". But they have so many awesome tracks through all their albums.
One lyric that I latched onto and continue to love and live by is from their track "The Stairs"...
"Do you lead or are you led?"

This is Maggie Bocanegra. She’s an electric drummer from Mexico. Her playing is fire and her setup is super cool.
This song in particular is unreal. I love it so much. I’ve searched and can’t find out what it is. I’ve even tried Shazam.
Does anyone know what this song is?

May 7 was the bicentennial of #Beethoven's Ninth Symphony, one of the greatest pieces of classical music of all time.
I really enjoyed this presentation of the entire symphony on Arte, with each movement performed by a different orchestra in a different country (Leipzig, Paris, Milan, Vienna), and a tiny bit of commentary on each movement in between.

RIP, Steve Albini. He did an "Invisible Jukebox" for The Wire in 1994, and they've made it publicly available as a memorial:

I think it's wonderful. And I hope he and Neil Kulkarni are swapping stories about music someplace in the great beyond.
There are so many covers of The Cure's excellent song Friday I'm In Love. This one from Phoebe Bridgers is my favorite.

Nirvana - “Smells Like Teen Spirit”
DGC Records, 1991
US Promo Version on yellow vinyl
I don’t remember if I got this before or after “Nevermind”. I know I got it because I love colored vinyl though.
It’s the radio edit version of their smash hit, along the non-LP track "Even In His Youth", and the original version of "Aneurysm" (slower pace vs the “Incesticide” version)

Spotify’s long-rumored high-res music tier looks like it might be finally ready for launch, based on some pretty convincing leaked screengrabs.
The music streaming service has fallen behind a number of its big rivals in not offering lossless music, but so-called “Enhanced Listening” will look to change that, offering up to 24-bit/44.1kHz playback via Spotify Connect on compatible devices.
@9to5google has more on the expected feature and how it compares to the competition, but we want to hear what you think — is high-res sound quality important to you in a streaming service? Has Spotify done enough?
#Spotify #Music #Streaming #HighRes #Lossless
| Yes, it’s a key consideration: | 23 |
| No, I can’t tell the difference: | 48 |
| I care more about other features: | 18 |

I made a background loop for a meditation recording (for personal use) using garage band. For a noob, this software is pretty easy to learn. I know I said I wouldn’t learn the piano this year but I am drawn towards music so much lately #music
Holy crap.

Night 1 of #TheMagneticFields #69LoveSongs 25th anniversary show was great! The venue is an old silent movie palace from the 1920s.
The first night was the first 35 songs, including favorites such as "The Book of Love" and "The Luckiest Guy on the Lower East Side." Some of the live performances that gave me new appreciation for the songs were "Punk Love," "Grand Canyon," "My Sentimental Melody" and "Promises of Eternity."
I'm going back tonight for the last 34 songs! So excited!!! #music
Oh wow, Christina Chong and Ethan Peck recorded a pop song together!

Tonight and tomorrow night my wife and I going to see #TheMagneticFields play their 1999 album #69LoveSongs live. I'm ridiculously excited about it! My wife gave me the album for my birthday about 3 months after we started dating, so I'm very sentimentally attached to it. #music

Hello friends. Our #comfy regulars may have noticed there has not been an acoustic live stream hangout with @SabiLewSounds lately. Unfortunately her and her mum for whom Sabi is sole caregiver lost their home and are week to week for temporary accommodation where possible.
Please check her links for the best and most immediate way to help.
In the meantime, the RFF video channel is all Sabi as a beacon for comfy collective care.
I was looking at Billboard top 100 hits for last year as I was trying to find a artist and I came across something...
There was a period where Taylor Swift had numerous singles in the top 100, something like over 20 singles at one time during a particular week.
Going back further in the year, I noticed it happened with other artists.
As far as I can tell, people are buying individual singles-- in such a quantity that they're placing in the top 100, despite not being a current hit.
What a weird phenomenon

Dope - Debonaire pretty much covers it. Well, I like a broad range of stuff... but that gets my juices flowing.

'Since 1979, Intermountain Opera Bozeman has produced professional operas in Bozeman and beyond. As it becomes known as Opera Montana, the organization’s past is the focus of a new digital collection created at the Montana State University Library.'
So I went to DJ Swiftie's Tay Tay Dance Party tonight. (I can't comfortably do large venues because of POTS, so this was my way of enjoying Taylor Swift with Swifties.)
It was a ton of fun, but I wasn't expecting to so profoundly miss Dino, my HS best friend.
Now, I've always loved catchy pop, and he did too. And I didn't pay attention to other stuff about the band: if I liked the music, I'd go.
1/n
Great plan #Dgar. Release your new track on the same day that Taylor Swift drops her new album. Brilliant. Oh, and The Wiggles dropped an album too? Great. That’s just great.

My Brian Wilson and Beach Boys fandom, which is as important to me as anything else, was almost like a porn stash. Hide that shit, someone's coming! You couldn't look like me and be black in West Philadelphia and love the Beach Boys the way I did.”

This is just insane. It makes the US as a touring destination hostile to all but the biggest foreign acts.
If there's a need to raise the fees, why not do it in a way it preserves or even bolsters the ability of small bands to come through? Maybe raise the fees, but provide a pathway to apply for a waiver based on some metric (album sales? prior year revenue?) to ensure it's only available to the least popular artists.
When did “the 80’s” start? 🤔
I like this answer from Reddit 👇
"I see five distinct parts:
80 - 81: Fast Times at Ridgemont High era, rock was popular, New Wave just showing up. J Geils Band, Asia, Billy Squier.
82 - 83: New Romantics era, New Wave becomes more widely accepted. Culture Club, Spandau Ballet, Missing Persons.
84 - 85: Monsters of Pop era. Bruce Springsteen, Prince, Michael Jackson, Madonna, Cindy Lauper.
86 - 87: Stock Aitken Waterman era, where pop became a bit overproduced. Bananarama, Pet Shop Boys, Cutting Crew.
88 - 89: Hair Band era, where pop was taken over by teased hair and electric guitars. Poison, Def Leppard, Guns N Roses.
(Of course, the R&B charts had their own eras, and had very successful crossovers in every era, from Lionel Richie to Janet Jackson.)"
Courtney Love has just launched a new eight-part series about women in music on BBC Radio 6 Music and finished her memoir, "The Girl With the Most Cake." She also recently marked the 30th anniversary of both the death of her husband Kurt Cobain and the release of Hole's seminal album, "Live Through This." The Evening Standard's Dylan Jones talked to her about Taylor Swift ("not important"), Madonna ("I don't like her and she doesn't like me") and whether she's an English lady now.
