Heartbreak // Music of the Week / WS 14-Feb
My theme for this week's Music of the Week playlist is heartbreak. Not everything I heard was related to heartbreak – in fact most of it wasn’t – but the crumbling of a long-term relationship in the week before Valentine’s Day would inform at least some of the music one listens to, and that happened. Here's a playlist featuring Schneider TM, Kylie Minogue, Phosphorescent, Rashmeet Kaur, etc.
Doomsday by MF DOOM, and the art of the comeback
Doomsday is a pretty chill song given its emotional backstory. Its wickedly funny, and rife with puns and epic wordplay. And more-or-less devoid of cold cynicism. But at its key moments, for instance in its chorus, you can see how emotional Operation: Doomsday really is for DOOM.
