(Some of my favorite tracks include: “Car Crash,” “Colossus,” “Grounds,” and “I’m Scum.”)

[effyeffa]

a comprehensive list of (almost) all of my spotify playlists, sorted by theme

category 1: a bit of everything.

every feeling everywhere all at once opened by brian eno, closed by mitski, in between an eclectic mix of everything to scream cry and dance to  essentials. as the title suggests this is the music that makes up the foundation of my identity. funkadelic, air, spiritualized, y la bamba, weyes blood etc etc multitudes: similar idea but older. more hip hop in there, a little time capsule of 2017

seasonal playlists: these are closed chapters that won’t be altered

forbidden fruit february. self explanatory. aquarius season is for yearning and getting messy, thanks fiona apple idlings of march is when spring begins again, just barely but there’s a careful joy spreading. joyful tunes! this must be the place! spring has sprung and continues springing. instrumental interludes as standalone songs, everything sounds like water. the time that we wasted just hit like a wave begin again, another spring playlist. this time with childish gambino, laura marling, hayley williams, guns’n’roses, the classic combo april flowers. short and sweet, alice phoebe lou meets car seat headrest slowly come the saints of summer. do you remember when st vincent said daddy’s home well i made a whole playlist about it. mika is in there. genuinely no idea what was going on that summer. never ending summer, this IS the season of the witch. we love a strange mix of oldies and french and german new wave  i can’t believe summer is over and oh it’s so sentimental, it’s a cherry-coloured funk winter walking. it’s giving phoebe bridgers in the graveyard, mountain goats, springsteen, mother mother winter fruits: the first big thief singles off their latest album came out and sent me down this particular spiral. frankie cosmos and mitski, niche italian indie pop

playlists i still edit/add to, first: good moods.

still you. skinshape, biig piig, kadhja bonet, julia jacklin autobahn, a roadtrip playlist, best friends laughing, mostly italian 70s/80s many moons ago: it’s pop! it’s happy things! silly goofy times golden hour! an old one. started this in 2018, sylvan esso was big, king krule, her’s, clairo will you always love like this? dream pop. lesbianism. st south.  everyday’s a holiday: okay kaya and rex orange county, steve lacy vibes maybe i wasn’t there: kendrick, dijon, rosalía come on over & do the twist. they’re love songs. aching with nostalgia but happy coffee in bed is teetering on the edge between a lovely warm soup of emotions and desperate yearning clear the fog is where the yearning begins in earnest.

moody moods.

free drinks at the local bar, we’ve got mac demarco, the strokes, girlpool. you know the drill take me for a spin: something of a continuation of free drinks a few years later now including sam cohen, kevin morby. sad-ish music that still works if played in public ring: odes to being happysad on public transport in berlin, short and sweet peel you like a fruit. THEE playlist of psychological warfare.  i would be an electrician: if you enjoy julien baker’s happy to be here, the following ten tracks might do similar damage to your psyche  no more bad news from my jorja smith phase, also greentea peng, arlo parks gloomy. it’s the end of the world, sharon van etten said, and love is a losing game, and there’s stormy weather and love will tear us apart.  calm there’s definitely a flatsound track in there. be warned.  

and here’s three completely new ones, works in progress, not yet categorised:

touch. a very specific moment in time. listening to beach house and rhye with all my friends on a big couch, drifting off together, crying a little, holding on tightly all the in between: the only place that matters is by your side, mama you’ve been on my mind, only the strong survive, don’t think twice it’s alright. songs that transcend time and space transitional. seeing angels in everything

already this post is way too long. i have so many playlists, my god. i have a whole folder sorted by genre, one by decade, more by concepts and themes. i’m currently sorting through everything and thought i’d share my process, maybe you’ll find something for yourself new in my chaos :)

Moh Bright And Destined = Mohbad

We lost such a light; RIP Mohbad, Imole. A Gemini JUST like Tupac. Imole in Yoruba means “Light.” UGH I have been so sad about the passing of this literal ray of sunshine. He brought so much joy and light to my life during one of my darkest times. I played his song 'Peace' on repeat as a mantra. I feel like "they", the powers that be, the industry is really trying to snuff out the light. They are silencing movers, shakers, knowers, thinkers, the ultra light beams... THE ARTISTS.

While alive he voiced that he was bullied. He alleged that his life was under threat and sought police protection from many people. He was attacked and assaulted by many until the instruction of former record label owner, Naira Marley (who grew up in London). His fans burned down the home of Naira Marley right after his passing. The record label that attacked him is actually a drug gang called the "Marlians" with Government mob ties in Nigeria AND the UK. Mohbad cried out for help but no real changes were made until after his death.

Weeks after his death evidence has been pouring out on the internet thanks to the hashtag #JusticeforMohbad. Videos were shared. He was taken to the hospital and given an injection by a nurse. He instantly fell unconscious but they claimed he was dead. They instantly announced his death worldwide. As it turns out he was not dead, however his family & frenemies (in collusion) with the Government arranged his burial on land he bought for THEM. They rushed and buried him ALIVE so no one finger could be pointed at anyone. Mind you, they buried him worse than a dog with his neck bent in a coffin he was too tall for. This was torture and a group assassination. His biological mother was the only one not in on it.

He was so strong and survived underground for a long time before eventually passing away. They only exhumed (brought up) his body once enough time had passed that they knew he was dead. Now they are doing an autopsy on his body and the Government has taken weeks (so far) for this process. I think they are testing why the many injections they forced him to take prior to his death did not kill him. He still has not had a proper burial. This followers are just waiting in anticipation for what will come next.

Mohbad started speaking out against the Gov. in 2020. He was against police brutality. He believed in the power of the people. Let’s be clear that this man was a freedom fighter & a pacifist. As tragic as the loss has been it’s been equally awe inspiring seeing his spark of light ignite the world, just as he envisioned it would.

The craziest thing about Mohbad's death is that being the genius Gemini artist that he was he left us a road map up evidence; in the form of art but also receipts and legal filings. Everything is on his Twitter or "X" account @iammohbad_ and it's well organized. He intended for the songs to come out after death because his life was too under threat. Just as Tupac he spoke of his own death. There is really no way his oppressors can lie their way out of this one - although they will try their hardest.

If anyone thinks it's an accident or coincidence that a young black male artist whose #1 single was "Peace" and last album was titled: "Blessed" was killed... you're mistaken. To me he's now the African Tupac; he had the same faith with similar complications after he chose to leave a record label. He was a purist of strong faith, like Pac who would not abide by their unhealthy lifestyle and they dragged him to the grave for it. You see, it’s deeper than just a senseless brutal death - because it was spiritual warfare with a touch of malicious jealousy. Jealousy seems to be the real pandemic right now.

When you shine too brightly so many aim to dim that light and to drag it into the mud. But the sun always rises in the morning and Mohbad's light and legacy will now beam even brighter as the entire WORLD stands up and comes together for his justice.

Why is it important as an American to note happenings in Nigeria > Ghana > India etc. ? Because all these locations were also originally colonized by the British and are all on a similar timeline of late stage capitalism. Unity IS community... internationally. Late stage #capitalism is a breeding ground for jealousy & hatred of those who can get it on their own - who can get money outside of the system and who do what we love. This was done as a message. This is disrespectful to EVERY single #artist no matter the background around the WORLD.

They don’t want us to have joy. They don’t want us to have peace. They don’t want us to find community. Without those elements present Capitalism thrives!

But I am thankful I found his music at the time I did! Music is healing and transformative. Thank you Mohbad for the love, light and legacy you left behind. Your sunshine didn't go in vein. You will always bring joy to my life!

Amirtha Kidambi's Elder Ones — New Monuments (We Jazz)

The great DC artist, audio scholar and activist Thomas Stanley once described Sun Ra’s concept of the Alter Destiny as “a small chunk of language, a key unlocking large powers and capacities that will allow us to realize sustainable futures that are not subordinate to the same imperial regime that fucked up our planet in the first place. History is the plantation, abolitionist Ra reminds us, and it is time to break loose from these chains and leave.” This is a particularly resonant message today, in an era of late capitalism, deteriorating institutions and genocidal warfare. Yet, the inevitable future promised to us by this seemingly unending quagmire presents a sense of stability in its repetition of failures that enables many of its subjects to cling to its promise even as we further careen into the abyss. Amirtha Kidambi is not one of those people, and in the five years since her previous release with her group Elder Ones — a period marked by the pandemic, the George Floyd protests, and a rapidly-encroaching American fascism — her resolve has only been strengthened. Their record New Monuments is a battle cry for building not a better future, but a different future entirely, one free from the ghosts of colonialism and imperialism.

Kidambi has a background in both new music and DIY, and navigating these disparate worlds has informed her unique approach to improvised music. This is on full display on the opening track “Third Space,” on which Kidambi sings with punk-inflected energy while maintaining complete control and authority over her vocals. The track takes its name from influential postcolonial theorist Homi K. Bhabha’s concept of a liminal space in which, in the context of colonial ambivalence, different cultures interact with each other. The (very) basic gist of this theory is that, in post-colonial society,  culture is constantly moving, never one singular thing and never the property of any singular people. In turn, on this track, and the album as a whole, Kidambi defies any essentialized notion of “Indian music” or Indian jazz (which has become yet another needlessly limiting genre term in this “spiritual jazz” era), and not just by invoking Bhabha. From the moment the record kicks off, new agey world music treacle is left behind on another planet entirely.

On this record, Kidambi is backed by a top group of New York improvisers, including Elder Ones mainstay Matt Nelson on soprano saxophone alongside cellist Lester St. Louis, known for his work in the late Jaimie Branch’s Fly or Die group, and Jason Nazary, frequent collaborator of Darius Jones and one half of Jaimie Branch’s Anteloper group. Rounding out the quintet is Eva Lawitts, whose propulsive basswork pushes the multi-part compositions on the album forward. On album centerpiece “Farmer’s Day” the band balances a modal, in-the-pocket groove with loose improvisation, with a particularly dazzling solo from Nazary showing off his impressive and dynamic range as a percussionist. After this solo, the song slows to a crawl as Kidambi invokes the now-yearslong protest movement of Indian farmers against a series of bills designed to weaken working farmers and benefit corporations: “We work from cradle to grave / conditioned like a slave.” This is protest music, as clear in its radical intentions as it can be, but the Elder Ones find plenty of room for beauty in struggle. This is especially true on the title track, which has a synth line that, if isolated, would call to mind the devotional music Alice Coltrane recorded in the 80s. Kidambi asks “in the end is history always doomed to repeat?” The answer she arrives at for this unanswerable question is to “build new monuments to new futures,” an affirmation of the Alter Destiny. Though the struggle is neverending, these new futures are still well within our capabilities. All it takes is a level of fearlessness, something Amirtha Kidambi has shown in spades on this record.

The practice of frequency, vibrations and energy as a way of spiritual and technological enlightenment and warfare engagement is exercised and cultivated in this cross section of diverse collation through the installation of Brik Phro. and the theorem of LFM manifest as a life force. In spectral analysis of critical geometric sound engineering and practical image sonicalization through a scope of creative design and architectural wave simulation, am well versed with a broad knowledge base of greater conscious awareness and therefore i attribute my transition of projection by embodying a trajectory of existential expanse which has been captivated by existing outside of time and space. This album is the first half of a compilation of artistic works that encompass a broad and diverse multitude of sonic projections. The general idea behind these works is to identify and signify artistic distribute during therapeutic arts of audio transcoding. Through the use of rhythm, harmony and melody, one engulfed the textural tonality elements by producing pieces of sound that would simulate this very process of mental configuration where captivation of self realization remained focus of uproot. Bringing sound and music closer into perspective as a concept of audio elasticity and providing a philosophy of integrated and diverse mechanisms of operation that mediate audio as a spectral projection of frequency. The idea behind these works is to represent both traditional and contemporary African arts into musical elementation that signifies and amplifies sonic collages of sound into audible sculpts. This Volume is an extension of the project works that I have been formerly engaged and involved in where state of mind is addressed and the psychological effects of society are in fragment brought into focus throughout this progressive album. The encompass again in this audio transcription is heavily influenced by mental configuration of one's many distinct battles of life and the trials and tribulations that come with it. How to effectively through music therapy eliminate and correct the state of mind to sound mind is collectively transformed in this attribute as projections of audio visual simulations through imaginative creative mechanisms.
