Yeah it's called being an American, bitch. Smugness towards authority is our founding trait.

I did not know that.
FYI:

In 1916 the U.S. signed an agreement for control of St. Thomas, St. John & St. Croix, known as the “Danish West Indies,” in exchange for $25 million & a declaration that the U.S. would “not object to the Danish Govt extending their political & economic interests to the whole of Greenland.

Every other post informs me the Maduro op was done to distract from the Epstein files. I don’t think it’s working.

What an embarrassment of riches in the World playlist! Highlights for me include Lucretia Dalt, Youssou N’Dour, Lido Pimienta, and the Ndagga Rhythm Force. Plus Mabe Fratti’s new band Titanic is the bomb (WADR to Bomba Estereo).

This playlist features instrumental music (with the occasional wordless vocal), and includes classical, jazz, world, rock and other genres. Includes Los Straitjackets, Tortoise, John Scofield. Budos Band, Shostakovich, Animal Collective, et cetera. 7 hours long.

Not necessarily dance music, but sick beats abound. Love that Hudson Mohawke remix of Justice; enjoyed Barker, DjRUM and Nick Leon; and any year with a new Burial track can’t be all bad.

You know who rocks? Viagra Boys and Lambrini Girls. Militarie Gun and YHWH Nailgun. Preoccupations and PUP. Spiritual Cramp and Snooper. And obviously, Turnstile. Also: you rock, too.

This is the year we said goodbye to Sly Stone, Brian Wilson, Marianne Faithfull, Roberta Flack, and so many other greats. A nod and a wink to Tom Lehrer, so long to Michael Hurley, and Rest In Power, D’Angelo!

Tunes from this folder may be calm and soothing, but not insubstantial; it includes acclaimed work from Maria Somerville, Joanne Robertson, Oklou and Annahstasia. My favorite track is “I Come With Mud” by Men I Trust. Light some candles and settle in.

Regarding the year in Hip-Hop: folks are rightly enthused by the Clipse comeback, but for my money, one of the best albums of ‘25 in any genre was GOLLIWOG by billy woods. Loved Tyler, Simz and Doechii; stoked about McKinley Dickinson; and Slick Rick still kills!

The Elders playlist includes over-60 folks like Chuck D and Suzanne Vega, but we let in 59-year old Shirley Manson, who is cool at any age. Highlights include the Dylan/Streisand duet, as well as the Elton John/Spinal Tap collab. Rock on!
