Furhoof Faves of 2022

Another year has come to an end and though people have been sharing their yearend lists for weeks, even months already, we wanted to join in with our very own Furhoof Faves of 2022. So, we asked some Furhoof artists that released music this year, as well as some others, what some of their favorite (non-Furhoof) releases of the year were.

We hope you enjoy, and of course, if you like the recommendations you hear… support the artists directly by buying their album on bandcamp or in the physical form. Oh and of course consider checking out the Furhoof artists’ work as well.

2019 első felének legjobb lemezei, szerintünk

Idén év elejétől elkezdtem havonta megosztani, hogy milyen lemezeket hallgattam meg és azok mennyire tetszettek. Részben azért, mert így számomra is több emlék marad egy-egy albumról, részben pedig azért, mert remélem, hogy másoknak is hasznos lehet, tud tippeket adni. Ahogyan nekem is adnak tippeket mások listái. Szóval ahelyett, hogy csak a saját félévi hallgatásomat összegeztem volna, megkértem néhány zenerajongó barátomat, hogy ők is tegyék meg ezt. Itt vannak az összegyűlt listák, reméljük mások is találnak rajtuk olyan zenét, ami feldobja egy-egy napjukat! Köszi mindenkinek a közös gondolkodást!

És persze reblogban jöhetnek a további félévik.

A sajátomhoz még annyit hozzáteszek, hogy ez a 75 lemez mind tényleg eléggé tetszett. A havi listázás miatt sokkal jobban tudtam, hogy mik tetszettek idén eddig. Amik nagyon tetszettek, azokra sokkal jobban emlékeztem, többet hallgattam vissza őket. Meghagytam az eredeti havi gyűjtések pontszámait és leírásait. Ez jelzi azt is, hogy mennyire relatív ez a műfaj, van egy jelenideje aznap, amikor hallgatok valamit, van havonta egy másik aktualitása és persze mondjuk öt év múlva biztosan máshogy értékelném 2019 első felének jó részét. Fura az élmezőny, de most így gondolom, és az is van, ami persze mindig igaz, ezek nagy része nagyjából egyformán tetszik, a sok jó lemez együtt erősebb, mint kiragadni három “legjobbat”.

Horses Remember Facial Expressions of People They Have Seen Before 

A study by the Universities of Sussex and Portsmouth reveals that horses can read and then remember people’s emotional expressions, enabling them to use this information to identify people who could pose a potential threat.

Published today, Thursday 26 April 2018, in the journal, Current Biology, the paper ‘Animals remember previous facial expressions that specific humans have exhibited’ is authored by a team of psychologists, co-led by Professor Karen McComb from the University of Sussex and Dr Leanne Proops, from the University of Portsmouth – both specialists in animal behaviour.

The research team conducted controlled experiments in which domestic horses were presented with a photograph of an angry or happy human face and several hours later saw the actual person who had exhibited the expression, now in an emotionally neutral state. This short-term exposure to the photograph of a person’s facial expression was enough to generate clear differences in subsequent responses upon meeting that individual in the flesh later the same day.

The study found that despite the humans being in a neutral state during the live meeting, the horses’ gaze direction revealed that they perceived the person more negatively if they had previously seen them looking angry in the photograph rather than happy. Previous research, including at University of Sussex, has shown that animals tend to view negative events with their left eye due to the right brain hemisphere’s specialisation for processing threatening stimuli (information from the left eye is processed in the right hemisphere).

Book Tour/Book Review…Beware the waters. The dangerous deep brings ruin to all. Emme has spent her life avoiding anything to do with pirates. But the fates are cruel, and now a hidden sickness leads her to partner with pirates for the one thing that can save her a cure on an island none are certain exists. The pirate captain’s secrets are darker than the deep and threaten to kill them all. His obligations are tinged with betrayal, for his oath bind must be fulfilled. To ignore it is to invite peril of unimaginable destruction. As the adventure unfolds, the sea takes more than she expects and the sea gives more than he wants. Oathbound by Victoria McCombs The Royal Rose Chronicles, Book 1 YA Fantasy, Pirate Adventure Similar to Dark vibes of House of Salt and Sorrows combined with the sea vibes of Fable and All the Stars and Teeth! This was a fun read for me! It has an entertaining plot and is fast paced! The characters are interesting and each stands out for their own reasons. And trust me there are a lot of characters but they are easy to follow. The magic system was pretty cool! The world building was wonderful. The author's descriptive writing gives us a beautiful picture! One thing that I really liked was that you know you haven't figured out all of the mysteries yet to come from the characters and the world so I will definitely be looking forward to the book! Thank you Book of Matches Media and Victoria McCombs for sharing this great adventure with me! #VictoriaMccombs #Oathbound #TheRoyalRoseChronicles #BOMMTours @victoria_mccombs #BOMMIndieAuthors @bookofmatchesmedia#OathboundARCTour #BOMMARCTour #BookOfMatchesMedia https://www.instagram.com/p/Cajpw-ZB-Ym/?utm_medium=tumblr

[Book Tour] Hello everyone!! Today I am really excited to share with you The Winter Charlatan by Victoria McCombs (@victoria_mccombs). It is a YA fantasy that was published on December 7th. The Winter Charlatan is book three in the Storyteller’s Series. Each book is set in the same world with a few overlaying character, but is a unique plot. *** Check out my post on my blog Book Notes by Athina through the link in my bio for more information as well as the link to the tour schedule. *** Synopsis: A Queen raised in the shadows, and a Fraud Prince who needs her help. The sole heir to the kingdom is destined to sleep for a hundred years. To hide this liability, the queen left her cursed daughter in the care of a trusted lord, while taking his son as her own. Rowan grew up hating the boy who had her crown and vowed to one day reclaim her place as queen. But when a neighboring king threatens a war they won’t survive, Rowan must work with the fraud prince to save Elenvérs. She pledges herself as his spy in the enemy court and lives in the heart of danger. If she can’t save her kingdom before the curse hits, there may be nothing left to wake up to. *** @tbrbeyondtours #TBRBeyondTours #TheWinterCharlatan #VictoriaMcCombs #bookblog #allthebooks #bookblogger #booksbooksbooks #bookstagramit #booklove #readingismagic #toberead #bookstagramcommunity #booksaremagic #greekbookstagram #instavivlio #vivlio #diavazo #eucitesc #mybookfeatures #booknotes_athina #ipreview (at Bucharest, Romania) https://www.instagram.com/booknotes_athina/p/CXQ1w-8gJVb/?utm_medium=tumblr
