It’s nice to see young artists cover classic rock hits and make them their own.

Young Fathers – Shame
I can’t get enough of Young Fathers – I slowly realized I’m a fan after noticing I’ve listened to tons of their stuff and saved it to listen to again. Look at this beautiful story:
How about this gorgeous track with a gorgeous video that goes meta and comes back to itself? Notice the proportions!
I can’t stop dancing around to Border Girl either:
Oh I grin every time when the beat comes back at 1:58.
Snapped Ankles – Rechargeable
Sigrid – Suckerpunch
La Jungle – OK but This Is Not a Parachute
I’m loving this screaming descent off a precipice. 2020 theme music! Whatever wild genre this and Holy Fuck belong in, I’m into that.
Kate Tempest – Tunnel Vision
Another gut punch from Kate Tempest. Really feels like someone trying to work it out in a lonely late night walk home.
Kenny Hoopla – how will i rest in peace if i’m buried by a highway
Gave me chills. Like bloc party, but wilder and rawer. His other stuff is good too, hope to hear more from him.
Pingplotter
I need to see if my remote connection to work is healthy and if my remote connection to video conferencing is suffering.
I wrote a little utility to handle that in the commandline. It’s dumb but it works. Let’s call it pingplotter. It’s in the public domain, go nuts.
It’s fine to just pop in a terminal you have open, but it plays really nice with tmux and glances (I use both).
I think I spent nearly as much time making these screencasts as I did writing the shell script. I should blog that too, if only so I don’t have to research that again.
Pomplamoose – Seven nation dreams
Meeku Maathrame Cheptha – La la la
Just found out my buddy Krishnan Ganesan from Niraval is a backing singer in this video from a movie. It’s funny (La x 15)!
