- raph is 20, has been on hrt for 5 years and works at a daycare in the hidden city ^_^ (donnie synthesized it bc they do that for leos hormones and their own as well)

- cried at the amount of people who said "hi barbie!" to her both before and after seeing the barbie movie

- infiltrates leos twitter lives to pick him up by the scruff of his neck to make him go to bed and people go absolutely nutty abt it (basically: OMG SHES SCRUFFING HIM LIKE A KITTEN, LMAOO GET SCRUFFED IDIOT, LOVE HOW SHE TREATS HER SIBLINGS LIKE UNRULY CATS)

- diagnosed Big Dog Energy by twitter

- does makeup asmr lives on twitter and youtube bc people tell her that her voice is nice

- most active on her youtube channel which is mostly her annoying her little siblings (in her words: they've been annoying me for my whole life, time for payback)

- theres a meme of her standing in donnies doorway menacingly. she's holding a blanket. the caption was "im going to get burrito'd someone write my obituary"

- posts pictures of their siblings when they've been burrito'd. even april isn't safe

- one time april stole raphs phone and showed a photo of raph burrito'd instead

- she has a custom build a bear

- fosters puppies and kittens frequently! has two foster fails. one is a greyhound named alice who she raised from a bottle baby, and another is a gigantic maine coon named ghost bc he's all white and blind. ghost wraps himself around her neck like a living fur scarf. the cat is absolutely massive btw stretched out heslike half her size

NEXT IS...NEON LEON

- leo is 19 and shooting up like a weed (7ft 2)

- frequently speaks at colleges, except when people hear that purple is speaking at their college they dont expect a Goth As Hell Turtle with a snoot to rival a borzoi. most people guess their aesthetic incorrectly and donnie thinks its hilarious

- there are compilations of them smiling/laughing over the internet. the most common one is them laughing so hard they can barely breathe after someone called leo "lame-o-nerdo"

- is most frequently spotted at the local target. they like trinkets

- one time a guy tried to flirt w them and they politely redirected him towards leo

- came out very nonchalantly on a live. donnie was texting someone in the bg of one of leos lives and the chat kept asking omg what r they smiling at!! and they looked up and said "my girlfriend duh" and when people started saying YOU LIKE GIRLS??? they started directly into the camera w a vaguely confused expression for 10 seconds straight before saying "of course i like girls??? im a lesbian??" and three echoing voices shouted "I THOUGHT YOU WERE AMERICAN"

- the clip went viral. obviously.

- theres a clip of donnie biting an entire watermelon and it exploding

- is actually very open to taking photos w people ^_^ loves it when kids come up to them and say they look cool/shiny. never fails to make them cry

LAST BUT DEFINITELY NOT LEAST.......MIKEYYYYY

- met beyoncé. cried.

GROUP HCS.

- leo and donnie will take off their respective prosthetics as jokes often. leo will offer someone a hand and detach his arm. donnie has thrown their leg at people. more than once. theres compilations of it. theres an unexplained no context video on leos twitter of donnie in the living room, detaching their leg, opening a hidden compartment and then proceeding to shake out nearly a thousand fake plastic spiders along with a truly uncountable amount of batteries. the video ends with donnie snapping their head towards the camera and shouting "DON'T REVEAL MY SECRETS DIPSHIT" before lunging at leo

- theres multiple videos of the disaster twins being a disaster as raph slowly approaches from behind them, scruffs them like cats and then flings them over her shoulder like particularly unruly sacks of flour. theres also compilations of her holding her siblings under their arms like cats. donnie seems to be the most receptive to it, bc they could be angrily ranting snd then raph picks them up and they just. dangle. pupils dilated and content to be carried off.

- theres a video of raph gnawing on an impressively large tree branch in the woods, illumimated only by a phone flash. she looks almost guilty in it.

- mikey took a video of his three aquatic siblings in the rain and titled it "turtle zoomies"

the video shows raph contentedly soaking in the rain, tail swishing in a particularly deep puddle. leo and donnie are chasing each other at inhuman speeds while chirping. raph looks at the camera and smiles before donnie runs into her, to which she then decides it's time for cuddles. leo runs at the camera and the video ends.

- donnie showed up on leos song cover channel and covered both world is mine (obviously) but also to the hellfire by lorna shore, metal screams and all. people have begged them to make their own song cover channel but they just said "why make my own when i can just steal my brothers?"

- the turtles accidentally revealed having mafia ties ala big mama ("oh yeah we have a mom too! not by birth though. big mama!" "THE FUCKING LEADER OF THE SPIDER MAFIA??" "the WHAT.")

“ we’re family. we don’t turn our backs on each other. “

@bitterseadrop

The White Fang was settling down after yet another successful mission. Ilya would ask Zarina (no, begging is a better word) to take over the cooking duties from Leon, who so kindly offered to make his infamous stew. The dinner preparations were going smoothly. Alas, she heard Milou make fun of their leader once again, joined by Saine, who seemed to learn quite a lot from both of them as they traveled together. Even if it meant going playfully against his brother, making him let out offended huffs and saying that they were just exaggerating. A sensitive lot, he called them, pouting and looking away as Saine and Milou would almost choke on laughter. It was another sunny day with a warm evening and a cool night.

As Hawke continued to prepare the stew, she heard the talking happening in the common room. It seemed the four of the White Fang members were discussing something. Zarina stepped closer to listen in, not daring to make a noise as she was curious to hear what was happening. The conversation circled around the topic of family, discussing flashbacks where some familiar memories were touched. It was a delight to see Milou getting along just as well with others as she did with her. As an older sister, the silver-haired woman could only smile at how much brighter her younger sister’s voice was. There was a newfound sunlight, a new fire, a new brightness. As she leaned against the wall, arms loosely crossed under her chest, Zarina smiled at everyone’s happy voices.

-We’re family. We don’t turn our backs on each other.

How sweet. Did the two of them finally find a place they could call home? A place where they don’t need to run away from. Even if Sister - Mireil - catches up with

A second of silence would follow those words, only to explode in happy and energetic agreements. Hawke could hear Leon move to bear-hug all his companions and laugh happily, followed by everyone’s singing laughter. Zarina chuckled softly, but not before hearing everyone call for her name. They also seemed to want to share their unbridled joy with her. Golden eyes shined with a soft tenderness as she checked the stew's condition before heading to the main room where everyone was.

Milou’s eyes gleamed brightly. Her smile reminded Zarina of those early days when the four of them (Milou, Zarina, Elias, and Mireil) would sit together and sing songs. Then, they were a family. A shaking one, a trembling one, but a family. It was heartbreaking when it all had gone awry, losing one to betrayal and losing the other to death. Hawke knew that she couldn’t give her sister everything she wanted or deserved. They had their own lives, and there would be a day when Milou would be walking her own path. Without her older sister. Life was never sweet to them.

But for now…

Let her enjoy this moment of closeness. Let her enjoy Milou’s happiness and watch White Fang’s smiling faces.

Zarina, too, was a selfish older sister. The death of Eli continued to weigh heavily on her, but seeing Milou’s smiling face when everyone was waving at her? The silverette felt a subtle warmth in her chest.

Hey, Eli, she thinks to herself. Milou’s growing up so fast. Do you remember how timid she was? Now she’s such a troublemaker.

Zarina chuckled when she saw Ilya approaching her first, taking the ungloved hand and leading the fellow silver-haired maiden to their gathering.

“Now, now. What got you all so excited?” Her voice remained much lower yet still had that melodic tone as she asked everyone despite knowing the answer.

“We’re a family, right, Zarina?” Leon suddenly asked, a cheeky smile on his sun-kissed face. Saine looked at her with hope, and Ilya stood beside Milou, all smiles.

“Naturally,” Hawke answers without missing a beat. “If we were not, I would’ve fed everyone your stew instead of making another one when you were not looking.”

Aghast, Leon stared in shock at his comrades before looking at Zarina. He certainly looked like she betrayed him at that moment.

“I knew it was suspicious!”

“We owe you our stomachs, Zarina.”

“Hey! It wasn’t that bad!”

“I think you created a new alchemical recipe, Leon. Color me impressed.”

“Ugh, Milou, shut up.”

Birthright in Conquest

Corrin has grown up within an isolated palace in Nohr alongside his younger brother and sister, Leon and Elise.

Leo will soon be making his debut at the main palace, but one night shortly after Corrin's birthday King Garon comes to visit.

King Garon's visits are few and far between, but on this night Corrin is going to be allowed to officially join the court. There had been troubles for years amongst the nobility, and the ongoing conflict with Hoshido, but Corrin was finally going to debut as one of Garon's children to the whole of Nohr.

Leo and Elise are jealous, but happy that their sibling will be free to stand alongside Prince Xander and Princess Camilla.

Everything begins to go wrong on the journey from the Northern Castle to the heart of Nohr, Castle Krakenburg. A group of Hoshido soldiers, seeking to break the seals crafted by King Garon's late wife, Arete, meet the traveling party.

Corrin is recognized and whisked away to Hoshido, where Queen Mikoto greets them as a mother. Corrin's world collapses, but things seem...nice though odd in Castle Shirasagi.

The oldest three royals are cordial, but distant. Ryoma is frequently away from the castle, and Hinoka frequently patrols the borders. Takumi speaks with soldiers that make Corrin's skin crawl.

It all comes to a head when Corrin's dragon is released one sunny day. Mikoto promised them a chance to understand what they are, and then the castle town is in ruins.

A woman singing a mournful song and dancing with water calms them, and with the help of a repentent ninja and the youngest princess, Corrin absconds from Hoshido through a glowing lake.

In the depths of Valla, Corrin learns Azura's name and the about how Anankos has throttled Hoshido. Nohr attempted to fight back years ago with Queen Arete, but she perished and Azura was taken to Hoshido. Corrin was taken in retaliation, and possibly other reasons Azura is unsure of, though she knows Corrin has ties to Valla because Mikoto does.

The destruction of Valla left Mikoto thralled to the fallen dragon Anakos, and with her magic, the royal family has either been thralled or sworn fealty to a new dragon god.

Corrin desperately wants to go home to Nohr, to be with their siblings, but they also can't abandon their newly discovered Hoshido family. How could they live with themselves if they let Hoshido be truly devoured? Their time there was not horrid - and they made tentative friends in the ninja Kaze and the princess Sakura.

Corrin resolves to return to Nohr with Azura, who is nervous to be back in a nation she only remembers pieces of.

There are no lovely reunions, because Hoshido has invaded Nohr and Nohr is putting up a violent resistence.

Corrin manages to get in touch with Elise and her retainers, and after getting in touch with some allies and leaving news for the other siblings that they are alive, but outside of the war effort, the group returns to Valla.

They come across Arete and Sumergai's spirit, and while they are able to fight them off and escape Valla again, Corrin learns the truth of their parentage and of Azura's lineage.

Corrin has a crisis they decide to put off for later - a child of a mad god? That can be dealt with when the world isn't burning.

The group returns to Hoshido, to try and stop and the war and invasion at its...well, human source. They aren't strong enough to take on Anankos himself yet.

Mikoto and Takumi have remained in the palace, and they reject peace. Corrin is forced to kill their mother, and Takumi falls in battle trying to awaken Corrin's feral dragon. They do not have a dragonstone, and thus no real control, but when Takumi falls and Mikoto is dead, Corrin remains human but grieving.

Princess Sakura and her retainers appear, and while it's a bad situation, Sakura knows Corrin was given no choice. They gather more allies in trying to track down other royals in Hoshido - Camilla and Hinoka are fighting at the front lines in Hoshido, and Ryoma is deep in Nohr crossing blades with Xander. Kaze defects and Corrin decides that before anyone else dieds, they neee to take care of Anankos. Just dealing with the human element didn't work, after all.

Before they can return to Valla, Hinoka appears and challenges them to a battle. Kaze is killed defending Corrin, Hinoka is fatally wounded and dragged away by her loyal retainer, Setsuma. Azama defects and joins Corrin's troupe.

Corrin and co dive into the lake at Castle Shiragasi, and plunge into Valla, moments before Leo rides in with a battalion. Prince Xander is dead and Leo is fleeing Prince Ryoma, who vanishes before there is a confrontation at the castle.

Corrin fights through Valla spirits, barely able to keep everyone well and fighting. Several die before they make it to Ryoma. The fight with Ryoma is brutal, and Sakura sacrifices herself to save Corrin and stop Ryoma, but Ryoma is too far gone and deals a near fatal blow to Corrin.

Corrin goes feral, and tears Ryoma apart before separating from the remaining party.

Azura attempts a pursuit, but more Vallite soldiers block the way and delays the party's reunification.

Corrin finds the feral dragon Anankos, and a fight rattles the fallen nation. Anankos should win, but Corrin's allies appear to help.

When Anankos falls, Corrin does not revert to human form. Instead, the power ebbing fron Anankos is absorbed by Corrin and they thrall all within Valla to them.

On the surface, the thralls are released, and the remainint heads of nations begin planning to deal with the lurking threat. They are tattered, but perhaps they can build a strong enough army before Corrin's power grows out of control...

Especially since the thralls may not be so loyal, as Azura uses her Vallite lullaby to frequently lull Corrin to sleep and rest and is, perhaps, trying to free them all.

A sleeping dragon is still a dragon, however.

Check out these earlier drabbles, one for Shadow Dragon and Minerva and Michalis' swapped roles (Macedon's Twist of Fate) and the other for a fractured rescue (Time is Note Linear) of the Awakening timeline!

It's funny how I was originally going to have these be prompts but they became one-shot botes instead haha. I should probably proof before posting but I just finish so here y'all go

My RECAP: Brian Stokes Mitchell at Lincoln Center Open House weekend, October 29, 2022

[Brian Stokes Mitchell performs at Lincoln Center's Open House Weekend in celebration of the re-opening of David Geffen Hall after renovations. All events during the open house were free and open to the public. Stokes performed a six-song set in the Leon and Norma Hess Grand Promenade. October 29, 2022.]

Links: Lincoln Center Open House website (x), YouTube playlist with my videos of the show (x)

Every new show is my favorite, that's okay right?

Every time I've seen Brian Stokes Mitchell perform in person it has been really special in a new and different way, which seems so unlikely, but I swear it happens every time. This time, the setting was Lincoln Center's Open House in honor of the re-opening of the newly renovated David Geffen Hall. There were free events and performances all weekend long in all of the different performance areas of the new building. Stokes was set to perform in the Leon and Norma Hess Grand Promenade, which is a fancy way to say he was on a little stage in the lobby outside the new Wu Tsai theater on the second floor of the building. Side note: We had already bought tickets to an upcoming performance on November 4th in Worcester, Mass when this free opportunity popped up, but honestly, there was no way I was going to miss a chance to see Stokes sing and I'm so glad I didn't.

A pretty perfect day

It was a gorgeous fall day on the Connecticut shoreline and my best friend and fellow Stokes aficionado and I ate some sandwiches as we waited for the train in the afternoon sun. New York City was slightly warmer; sunny and 65 and perfect. We emerged from the dark and closeness of the subway into the warmth of the autumn sun and smack in the middle of a little farmer's market. 10/10 experience folks. We managed to get into David Geffen Hall at around 3:15 for Stokes's 5:00pm show. There was a fun 3-piece strings band called Time for Three playing in the Grand Promenade when we walked in, they closed their set with a cover of "Stand By Me" that had some seriously cool pizzicato.

When the Time for Three crowd dispersed, we made our way to two chairs right in front of center stage. We had drinks and chatted with the folks around us for about an hour before it was time for the show to start. Stokes was joined by pianist Joseph Thalken and went right into a 6-song set, that lasted just under an hour.

Set list:

I, Don Quixote

Feeling Good

A Wizard Every Day

Wheels of a Dream

I Was Here

Impossible Dream

Some highlights of the highlights

I don't know how this short 6-song set ended up being one of my favorite shows I've ever attended, but it was truly a special little moment in time. A few highlights: first of all, we both felt a bit unhinged about being perceived by Stokes. I don't know if he remembered us from being in the audience (and literally right in the front) at three other shows this year, but it was really fun to get little nods and points during one of our faves "A Wizard Every Day" (x) and during "Impossible Dream." (x) Like please roll the tape, because I took videos of every song and I will be using these moments as meditation and therapy on days when I feel down. They were just pure light. As I've said on here before, Stokes just has a way of making you feel like singing songs at 1,000% just for you is the most important work he'll ever do, you can just feel that and it's really beautiful. Another cool moment was getting to hear him sing "I Was Here." (x) I hadn't heard this song live before and it was so good.

"Well I will not flicker and die like an ember / Too many men flicker and die / I will leave something behind to remember / Somehow I must.."

When Stokes sang these lines with his whole chest it was, oh I don’t even know how to express it, immediate! soaring! towering! I definitely have a new appreciation for that song now. I usually listen to the re-written version that was included in the Lights on Broadway children's book (x), but from now on I'll be giving the original equal listening time.

These were just a few highlights, but I can honestly say every new show I've been fortunate enough to go to has been my favorite including this one. I say this with zero hyperbole, it's been the joy of my life to attend these Stokes shows this year and as I find myself sitting in each different audience, I can feel my mind wrestling with itself, between paying as close attention as possible and wandering off picturing the whole scene from above in sheer awe that I'm even there at all.

When the show ended, we drifted out to the balcony on cloud nine, taking in the early evening city views and further absorbing the show. We decided to forego the subway and walk to a cool restaurant we read about some blocks away. On the way, we happened to pass by the Winter Garden and ended up buying last minute tickets to The Music Man. We got to see Sutton and Hugh in one of my favorite musicals ever, which was just the best possible way to cap off a pretty amazing day. This is honestly what I always hoped being a grownup would be like ♥️

1994 The U.S. Supreme Court unanimously ruled that a parody that pokes fun at an original work can be considered “fair use.”

Music 'What aDay, What aDay' Erykah Badu's Birthday Bash brought together generations of talent. BY ERIC DIEP Erykah Badu si for everyone.

With her birthday approaching, the singer entered "the Level 53 Final boss" era, atagline for her birthday bash concert on Saturday. But the prior week, she offered a deeply thoughtful explanation of why she's for the people.

Badu is famously spiritual and draws from her African ancestry to make connections, becoming aguiding light for her fans.

When DART announced an initiative to honor the Dallas legend with her very own Badu Bus, she was asked in a WFAA interview about the significance during Black His- tory Month of having her face on a bus in the city where she grew up—acity where her ancestors couldn't have taken a seat on the bus.

"That's why I chose the seat at the front. Not only ma I ta the front, Iam also at the back and ni the middle," she said ni the video. "Irepresent every single human being ni this city. Those who made mistakes, those who had to overcome trag- edy. The happy, the sad, the rich, the poor. I represent al people." On abusy Saturday night ni Deep Elum, the Dallas faith- ful came ot The Factory for her annual birthday bash, ni what has become atradition, to celebrate the fashion icon and the queen of neo-soul. The sold-out show promised a night of entertainment with hosts Bootz and Nayrok and performances by Rapsody, The Alchemist and Larry June.

The four-time Grammy winner's birthday bashes have become aperennial occurrence ni Dallas since at least 2013, when she celebrated with a concert at the Granada Theater. In the past, the lineups have been stacked with special guests and celebrity friends including Dave Chappelle, Jada Pinkett Smith and WILLOW, Marc Rebillet, André 3000, Yasiin Bey, Talib Kweli, Leon Bridges, Raekwon, Bun B, Bgi- XThaPlug and more. At last year's concert, Badu received the first-ever Key to Deep Ellum from the Deep Ellum Foun- dation. The event recognized the importance of her artistic inspiration to artists and creatives worldwide, as the historic neighborhood celebrated 150 years. Between 20-minute sets that were well-paced, playful banter between the hosts about how many times they were hitting That Badu her cannabis line ni collaboration with Cookies) backstage, and a twerk contest, this was arguably the best night for first-time birthday bash goers - who seemed ot fil pu hte majority of hte room. As soon as the venue doors opened, someone burned smudging sage to clear the space of bad energy. One of her merch items leaned into metaphysics humor: "I Got a Crystal Shoved Up My As At an Erykah Badu Concert & Al I Got Was This Lousy T-Shirt."

The tone was set from the beginning. The concert felt like afestival jammed-pack into afour- hour block. The artists seemed ot respect the fact they weren't the star of the show, but gave their best. Rapsody teased the album she's been working on for the past four years with her new single "Asteroids." Widely considered one of the most lyrical MCs, she busted rhymes with no help of abacking track, and showed off her vocal range by using different voices and flows for her songs with BLK ODYSY. The "Dear Rapsody, Where's the Album?" campaign si start-

Starchild has recently released a new single: "We Have The Power"

May 2023 - Starchild is an artist and songwriter who loves to take chances and explore the many nuances of their creativity. The LA-based performer captures the sunny imagery of the California shoreline with their songs, also laced with socially relevant themes.

The musician’s recent release "We Have The Power" is a perfect example. This remarkable single showcases excellent retro production aesthetics while enabling Starchild to express their vision without limitations. The pulse of the 3/4 (or 6/8, depending on how you like to count it) time signature gives off a charming old-school aesthetic, which gives the song a nostalgic flavor.

In addition, the lyrics are very inspiring, as "We Have The Power" offers a very uplifting message. When we let our emotions control us, we can become reactive and make decisions that are not in line with our values. However, amazing things happen when we realize that we have the power to change! We can create a society that is fair and just for all, where everyone has equal opportunities.

"We Have The Power" is a beautiful musical reminder that the world can become a much better place if we overcome our biases and prejudices and work towards building a world based on empathy, kindness, and respect for all. The song's pleasant surf-inspired tone and lo-fi sound also match the anti-corruption spirit of this poignant piece of music.

“We Have The Power" is a very good calling card for Starchild. This release will please fans of artists as diverse as The Beatles, Kings of Leon, Francis Moon, and The Growlers. In addition, it is the perfect introduction to how Starchild combines genres like dream-pop and indie rock to create a seamless personal sound.

This is music that's far more than plain entertainment. Starchild arguably uses their craft to express themselves and share their sensibilities with the audience, creating a deep connection.

Top 50 Albums of 2022

17. Last Night In The Bittersweet by Paolo Nutini

I must admit I had completely forgotten all about Paolo Nutini’s existence.

Eight years since the Scottish singer-songwriter last released an album, that was long enough for him to fade out of my memory altogether. That’s not for disliking his music either – although I really wasn’t keen on his debut These Streets, there were plenty of moments on his subsequent releases (Sunny Side Up and Caustic Love) that I played a lot at the time. However, in today’s current climate of hypersonic music release schedules, taking eight years out is a big risk as there’s no guarantee you’ll be able to get back the same spot that you left behind. Thankfully for Paolo though, just a few songs were all it took to instantly remind me of why he was always such a heralded songwriter.

Whilst his last two records saw him evolve from his soul-pop origins to explore more diverse sonic landscapes, bringing in elements of jazz, country and R&B, Paolo takes things even further on his magnificent fourth album, Last Night In The Bittersweet. Across the album’s expansive sixteen track odyssey that clocks in well over an hour, he bounces between those previously deployed stylistic traits, but also throws in a few new ones as well – most notably new wave, indie rock and ambient electronica. It all makes for a dazzling, eclectic and richly textured listen.

The first part of the record in particular is simply one of the best opening six track runs I heard in the whole of 2022. Opener Afterneath begins ominously before Paolo’s vocal screeches engulf the space, carrying with them strong shades of Zeppelin-era Robert Plant. From there the track rumbles on like a freeform jam session, overlaid with Paolo’s hypnotic spoken verse and snippets of 1993 classic crime film True Romance (which Tarantino even gets a songwriting credit for here). It’s a startling beginning to the record, as Paolo then brings things back to more familiar territory with stunning soulful rock track Radio (which you can hear above), with its glistening guitars and spine-tingling, repeated cries of “I want love.”

Lead single Through The Echoes is up next, an exquisitely crafted, stripped back love song where Paolo’s heartfelt vocals are the star of the show. Acid Eyes then might be my favourite from the record, with its instantly memorable refrain and jangly melancholic guitars, sounding a bit like Because of the Times-era Kings of Leon. Stranded Words may be branded as an interlude but is a great track itself, with Paolo’s Celtic tones speaking softly in a hymnal-like way over some quiet synths. Subsequent track Lose It then rounds off this incredible opening run, entering from the other end of the spectrum as a raucous guitar-driven rock track but with a tinge of gospel thrown in too.

However, it’s not just the opening section where this album radiates out the speakers, there are plenty of gems lurking in the latter half of the record too. Everywhere starts off quiet and subdued before erupting into a huge crescendo of soaring guitar riffs and soulful cries. Children of The Stars is then a wonderfully mesmeric and bluesy number whilst Desperation is a pulsating Strokes-esque jittery rock track, which culminates in probably the album’s finest guitar passage. The album then eventually draws to a close with epic penultimate track and seven-minute-long ballad Take Me Take Mine. Once your ears have wandered through its labyrinth of spacey synths and dreamy guitars, Dylan-inspired acoustic track Writer then ends the record on a heartfelt and reflective note.

You almost get the sense this was Paolo’s lockdown project, with him passing the time by just having fun with his instruments and exploring these different sounds. The album art for Last Night In The Bittersweet is Paolo sat in a room with an array of instruments around him and that really is the record’s whole vibe - like you’re sat in a room with him as he’s playing you this eclectic range of songs. Whilst I still think it may be a touch too long, on the 12 or 13 tracks where it does hit, you’ll be completely swept away by the raw brilliance of Paolo’s vocal and songwriting talents.

Best tracks: Radio, Acid Eyes, Through The Echoes
