2-23-2025: MY FAVES: boycott digitalization! boycott cinema terrorism!

 music of the week

    sib and i found some old cd's, which my aunt's husband at the time left us (back in 2011), filled with remixes, mashups, and insane dj sets and bootlegs from the european club scene of the time. think eurotrash but on poppers. as i am typing this, i am listening to a katy perry TGIF remix. this was what clubbing is supposed to sound like. my homework is to find as many of these songs on spotify (i tried to find some and this katy perry one, for example, is not found). perhaps we should bring back forgotten media like cd's vinyls, ipods etc... god, i miss my mp4... some songs i saved that i did find on spotify were: we are the people (wawa club remix) - empire of the sun

senorita - inna 

miami 2 ibiza - swedish house mafia vs tinie tempah 

take over control - afrojack ft eva simons

letting go (dutty love) - sean kingston ft nicki minaj

    speaking of media, i was shameless and shazamed songs played at vinyl vibes on friday night and saved some gems that my mom probably danced to in her own youth. anyone down for more igranke? here’s some of the songs i managed to shazam and save on my playlist:

padaju zvijezde - bijelo dugme

jugoslovenka - d’boys

ratne igre - kerber

fini dečko - paraf

vamos a la playa - opatijski suveniri

 in honor of black history month, i'd love to mention some currently fave songs by black artists:

virgo groove - beyonce

pink matter - frank ocean ft. andre 3000

girlfriend - hemlocke springs

kill bill - sza

the way i are - timbaland ft keri hilson

movies of the week

    just this afternoon i watched cecil b. demented directed by john waters. i guess, as redemption for not seeing a drag show, right? i loved the interior design of the cecil's crew's loft and the looks. 

books of the week

currently still working on band of sisters. i just got my march edition of vogue with sabrina carpenter on the cover, so this will be an upcoming read once i complete the book.
