💿 La Discoteca: Spiritualized - Everything Was Beautiful [2022] ★★★½

#Plexamp just reminded me that 25 years ago today Ladies and Gentlemen We Are Floating in Space was released and only a couple of weeks ago, Spiritualized’s 9th LP came out.

I guess you could say J. Spaceman has been making the same great songs consistently for over 3 decades or that Everything Was Beautiful is a refreshed collection of the band’s best snippets throughout an amazing discography.

Landed in Europe a couple of weeks ago, first time and already hoping to stay. Sucks to feel privileged while my family are being deprived of a normal life and basically being held hostage by a criminal organization in my village back in 🇨🇴

🍿 Watched Spider-Man: No Way Home, 2021 - ★★½

Watched on Sunday April 24, 2022.

Sounds like a true hero to me. I bet he isn’t that much into ballenas either.

🍿 Watched The Disaster Artist, 2017 - ★★★

I hate to love RYM. Once again got my IP banned for opening several pages at once on the site. Thanks @Sonemic for keeping your crowdsource database as closed as possible.

🍿 Watched Our Lady of the Assassins, 2000 - ★★★

Hace unos días el taxista me decía “En Colombia todavía hay guerrillas porque existen DDHH. Hay que acabar con eso y darle permiso al Ejercito para exterminarlos…” Si aún pasan cosas como la del Putumayo, imagínense la seguridad democrática sin derechos humanos 😨

Despite my intentions to blog as I tweet, I haven’t. Probably as I have yet to automate syndication. I’m torn between doing it with brid.gy or just writing the quick integration myself…Brid.gy would probably require me to add update support to my micropub endpoint.

I can relate. I’ve wanted to do the same on my website (Tanzawa inspired) for long, I got Brid.gy “crossposting” to Twitter and I can manually update syndication links on my Micropub endpoint, but still no way to add that link to my Jekyll site. Manual until it hurts.

Los Bitchos have got the formula to make Cumbia worldwide appealing and that’s awesome. I’ll give your album a listen when I have the time. Thanks for checking the list 👍🏽

2022 it’s been a great year for music. I’m sharing some of the albums I’m enjoying the most at https://kandr3s.co/albums/2022

Duster’s 4th record “Together” is so far (and by far) the best this year.

This album came up randomly on Plexamp Radio, 15 minutes in my reaction was “What is this amazing music?!”

I looked it up and lo and behold: Brian Eno produced it. Beautiful Ethereal/Gospel absolutely worth anyone’s time.
