the front porch. november. oakland. the chill of autumn. ocean blue soaked clouds. lampshades in windows. an american flag in the hood. the blinking red lights on the top of matching buildings. the soft hum of asphalt against rolling cars. the smoke of a girl as i exhale.
Some genius thought to set one of the best tracks off the new Arcade Fire's record Reflektor to Bill and Ted's Excellent Adventure. Thanks internet.
Sadness gives depth. Happiness gives height. Sadness gives roots. Happiness gives branches. Happiness is like a tree going into the sky, and sadness is like the roots going down into the womb of the earth. Both are needed, and the higher a tree goes, the deeper it goes, simultaneously. The bigger the tree, the bigger will be its roots. In fact, it is always in proportion. That’s its balance.

A testament to how great the song is in the first place. Twin Shadow couldn't even fuck it up.
I know these babes. All three of them.

Dylan x Monster Children
People worry about kids playing with guns, and teenagers watching violent videos; we are scared that some sort of culture of violence will take them over. Nobody worries about kids listening to thousands - literally thousands - of songs about broken hearts and rejection and pain and misery and loss. The unhappiest people I know, romantically speaking, are the ones who like pop music the most; and I don't know whether pop music has caused this unhappiness, but I do know that they've been listening to the sad songs longer than they've been living the unhappy lives.

Gold Panda x Charli XCX. Match made in grimy dance-pop heaven?
An electronic-shoegazing anthem coming to us all the way from Nashville? The track is "Golden" by Future Unlimited.

Take responsibility for your choices, for your whims. Own your greatest strength and your most humbling mistakes. Cultivate the purpose you seek. Recognize your unbridled freedom. Everything else is meaningless.
Black Marble's "A Great Design".
Another Brooklyn duo with another stellar track. 2012 seemed to be reeking of them. This is one of my favorites.
This is my sister.
