robotanists --

Been horribly lax on posting music as of late,
this is me scrambling to make up for this.

So here's a shout-out to the city of angels.
A beautiful cover to Alicia Keys' Empire State of Mind.

enjoy

Happy Camper
Born with a Bothered Mind (ft. Bouke Zoete)

Manfred's holiday leads to a 
series of awkward camping moments, 
but that doesn’t spoil the fun, 
because Manfred is a Happy Camper.


Happy Camper is a music project by Job Roggeveen. He composed an album full of sunny chansons with sultry gypsy sounds. But Job is not the only Happy Camper, eleven singers camp with him and perform his songs.

I'm not the girl
Angela McCluskey 



I can hear the sound like you're listening
You snuck in again and will not let me be
I'm--I'm ready now, to listen,
I'm ready to believe

Summer rain raining through the trees,
and years of heartache settles over me
I'm not the girl that you aked me to be
but here I am parting onto my love,
my love 

I can feel the sun breaking through the leaves
I see the moon abroad waiting quietly
And now I'm bound to nothing, ready to be free

Summer rain raining through the trees,
and years of heartache settles over me
I'm not the girl that you aked me to be
but here I am parting onto my love,
my love

I originally heard this track from a Quattro for Women commercial and only after browsing a friend's posts did I identify the title and artist. Angela McCluskey is a Scottish singer-songwriter. She has been featured in several commercials, however her most identifying feat (in my opinion at least) are her collaborations for Télépopmusik. She also recently released a new LP, featured in the last video.

Not the most sophisticated of lyrics,
but what a good, hard beat

Saturday, November 6




So many things about this music video makes me speechless.

the fact that she's Will Smith's daughter. 
the fact that she's ten years old, but has such a mature sounding edge
the fact that this video is produced so. well.
the fact that the choreography for the video is pretty sick
the fact that the song is actually quite catchy

the fact that she's TEN YEARS OLD and already making moves. 
Should this kind of success/talent be considered an outlier in the mediocrity scatterplot?

Damn. Brings your life up to a sobering perspective

"When autumn comes, it doesn't ask. 
It just walks in, where it left you last. 
And you never know, when it starts. 

Until there's fog inside the glass 
around your summer heart." 

-- John Mayer, Something's Missing

it's the change of seasons.

*note: Don't listen to his music much, but you've got to appreciate the man's lyrics. Respect

Dear Justin Bieber,

I'm sorry for ever mocking you and your girlish pop songs in the past.

Made by Nick Pittsinger, aka Shamantis, this is 100% authentic. Slowed down by 800%, this originally annoyingly cheery pop song turns into a hybrid of M83 and Sigur Ros and becomes a climactic score fit for a film like Inception. 

Compare with the original and note the difference:


amazing, right?


Trust me. This will go viral, I have a feeling
