Danny Brown’s Stardust is a banger. Getting 100 Gecs x whatever the dance floor hyperpop pedigree behind brat is (those are different kinds of hyperpop in my brain!) x DJ Sprinkles’ Midtown 120 Blues. Stir it all together for…a spiritual successor to Porter Robinson’s Nurture? But with the concept of “wholesome” exploded.

Dang, Guerilla Toss’s “You’re Weird Now” rocks. Getting Magdalena Bay x illuminati hotties x …B-52s? Punk in the bones.

Just listened to Styx’s “Come Sail Away” all the way through for the first time.
1) The “come sail away” part is only like 20 seconds total???
2) There’s *gotta* be some through line between “camp” and “tight-pantsed men play alien abduction song exclusively with earnest ‘Hell Yeah, Brother!’ energy.” Someone please educate me on what this means!

I have finally found the portmanteau I needed to post pithy vibe-based music tastings/bad Christgau impressions, and nobody can stop me: #Songmelier
