New Taiwan Music 2020

A handful of songs that have caught my attention in 2020. Some were released earlier, but it's been a while I posted anything about Taiwanese music.

Throwback Thursday Part 23

 

"I have one aim—the grotesque. If I am not grotesque I am nothing."

On this day, in 1898, died Aubrey Vincent Beardsley.

Today's Throwback Thursday is inspired by his work. Because he was  inspired by Michelangelo. Bless him.

Throwback Thursday Part 19

Today is Hippo Day, this is why TT is about animals. 

I had also the premiere of Franz Liszt's symphony Orpheus to celebrate on this day, but I chose hippo.

January music

Some of these songs are ballads, so be warned. But actually it's a mix of folk, indie, rock, and R'n'B.
Not much, only a handful.

2015 Through Headphones

The year of 2015 was not the best in music. Surely, Jonghyeon and SHINee released an album and my review of the year could and probably should end here, but while going through some notes I made past year, I decided to make a monthly list with releases that are actually good. That is months worth mentioning
But then again, 2015 was not a good year in anything.
Without much ado, let's go!
Video heavy.

August But Not Rush

   Before I disappear again for my hometown holiday, maybe some music update? I found this list of 500 Essential Rock and Roll Songs, so if anyone wants to check, I'll paste it below. You remember the list of 1000 songs you Have To Listen before You Die? Yes, similar list. Highlights? No Oasis' song this time.
Don't worry, I didn't forget about my eternal voices, I'm listening to them as well.

Led Apple

   OK, I tweeted that only two bands caught my attention lately. Be not mistaken, I doubt second INFINITE will come any time soon. But it wouldn't be fair not to mention other bands that exist.

Before I start, I have to say I watched ALL debuts and comebacks up to last weekend, that took me 2 days, yes. Talking about committment. I haz it.
Yes, we are still in Kpop funky town.
Don't like it, don't read it.

Freddie Mercury

   So yes, since I opened google and google made this tribute video, I might post this as well. Yes, sis, I'm very happy for ya and imma let you finish, but Freddie is the best vocal of all time! Of ALL time!
