there’s a website where you put in two musicians/artists and it makes a playlist that slowly transitions from one musician’s style of music to the other’s
lady gaga -> napalm death takes a weird detour through epic rap battles of history
This is actually really useful for finding music that’s in between genres that I wouldn’t know to look for.
This has nothing to do with books but it’s COOL
I feel like this could be useful for trying to slowly pull yourself away from your depression music to something more uplifting without it being jarring…
Exactly what I was thinking?? I love this???
(Edit: Accidentally reblogged this to my main so now I gotta make it witchy lol. But imagine the potential uses for this in a ritual setting. Rags to riches? Sad/nervous to empowered/confident? Mourning a loss to celebrating life again?)
For some reason Deserts Chang to Pablo Lopez hits up Grease and the Doc McStuffins Theme Song on the way.
“Fall Out Boy will never please everyone. And with Mania, they’ve opted to please no one but themselves. The result? The best album they’ve released in 10 years”
More highlights from the review for Alternative Press below:
“Mania won’t please anyone who’s refused to listen to Fall Out Boy in 10 years, but it wasn’t made for them. Fall Out Boy made it for themselves and for the people who are willing to give something a chance, to pick apart what makes it good and to appreciate the absolute off-the-wall bravery and creativity it takes to put something like this out after 15 years of being criticized and underestimated as much as they have.”
“They have never been the band you think they are; they immediately rejected the labels foisted upon them and changed drastically album to album, experimenting with elements of soul, funk, rap and gospel. They have consistently managed to adapt, maintain a fanbase and do things nobody else would dare.”
“In Mania’s absolute rejection of genre, common sense and expectation, it’s everything that makes the band special; it’s a pure Fall Out Boy record. Not everyone will love it; but if you’re not willing to give it a fair shot (or five), you don’t deserve it.”
