I haven’t found myself getting excited about a lot of music lately. But “Cookie Chips”, the new single from Irish emcee Rejjie Snow featuring the inimitable MF DOOM and Cam O’bi, is too good to ignore. Somehow the super mellow but unquestionably Summery beat manages to capture the style of[…]
Long time no blog. Remember me? No? Shit… Well, I’ve been super occupied with enormous life changes. I not only moved, I moved into a property that I own and maintain. It’s been a helluva year. And to be honest I’m still not fully settled in the new place even[…]
I featured New Zealand bred Trans rapper Randa’s revealing video “Turtles” in this space some time ago. They kinda fell off my radar after that. But they’re back with a fly new song and video called “Fashion”. No word on whether this or any of their other newer tracks will[…]
Dutch soulful Pop singer, songwriter, multi-instrumentalist and producer Benny Sings, a longtime favorite here at Imageyenation, is back with a darkly surreal video clip for his funky as fuck new single “It’s Not Enough”. “It’s Not Enough” is from his forthcoming album ‘City Pop’, his first release for Stones Throw,[…]
I’ve featured the beautifully creepy visual stylings of producer/singer Joji a few times in this space over the last year or two. But now it looks like he’s infected a collaborator, San Jose bred Bass music DJ/producer Getter, with his flair for the dark and macabre when it comes to[…]
Imageyenation dandy Micah James is back with some achingly beautiful Shahana Khan directed visuals to accompany the melancholic art raps of his song “Fall Back”. It’s anybody’s guess whether this track is a one-off or should be taken as a sign that the Los Angeles based lyricist may be preparing to[…]
The undisputed Rap vocabulary king Aesop Rock joins forces with Black Moth Super Rainbow frontperson Tobacco for a psychedelic, possibly Satanic, true-crime fever-dream on the very John Carpenter soundtrack sounding “Acid King”. “Acid King” is the first single from AesRock and Tobacco’s forthcoming self titled Malibu Ken album, out January[…]
Speaking as a chubby, beared, non-binary person who released a Rap record, looks amazing with a full face of makeup, and fucks with Satan heavy, Queer Texas emcee Chris Conde’s “Diamond Daggerz” is so necessary. “Diamond Daggerz” is the third single from Conde’s forthcoming debut album. Chris Conde
On their thumping new single “Lover Chanting” Sweden’s soulful Synth-Pop outfit Little Dragon ask the question “do you wanna be my girl” and the answer is unequivocally “yes”. “Lover Chanting” is from the quartet’s EP of the same name which is due out November 9th on Ninja Tune. Little Dragon
Since I am undoubtedly a sad girl most of the time I most certainly appreciate a good sad girl jam and Australian Alt-Pop chanteuse Julia Jacklin’s hauntingly beautiful new single “Body” is definitely a sad girl jam. “Body” is out now via Polyvinyl records. Julia Jacklin
Watch Kilo Kish beat the shit of her doppelganger, ‘Twin Peaks’ style, in the bugged out video clip for her bass-heavy new single “Void”. “Void” is the second single from the eclectic singer/songwriter’s newest EP ‘mothe’Kilo Kish which is out now on her own Kisha Soundscape + Audio imprint.
It shouldn’t come as a surprise to regular readers of this website to see me admit that my infrequently updated Monday Magick columns are often a laboratory for my own personal brand of high weirdness in one way or another.
