you mean HOW have you not heard this?!

never understood what the random kid from my school is doing in that video.

what waht, you never heard that song before now???????

I mean I am sure that I have, but basically, no! When I listened to it the other day I didn't recognize it!

greatest song ever sometimes

also I heard "Can We" and then realized that Missy's "Can we get kinky tonight? Like Coko" line in "Da Rain" is a nod to it oh my godddddd

Dear Dan,
I thought of you.

^three hour 80's goth hits mixtape:

Curated last year by the always-intriguing S13, the mix delves into the dark territories—we’re talking the deep cuts, none of this ‘Bela Lugosi’s Dead’ stuff. The boisterous deathrock of Mighty Sphincter, Specimen’s Batcave trashiness, the artsy weirdness of Red Wedding and early 4AD stalwarts Mass, evocative and angular sounds from Skeletal Family and Red Temple Spirits and touches of propulsive EBM all feature in this massive mix. Highly worth revisiting—or discovering for the first time.

oh hey, this rules

2015 will not give us a pop song better than this.

Kamasi Washington album is like whoa

I may only play the entire thing 5 more times in my life but damn am I glad I bought that

i keep sorta starting it, getting four songs in and feeling like i need time to focus and digest and backing away slowly.
everything on it is excellent, just wanna let it connect at the pace it's demanding.

okay whoa I heard this in a bookstore in Montreal and I am getting like hard electro Klaus Nomi vibes from this and it's fantastic
