  1. “Symphony of Solitude” by JAYLEEBENJAMIN

    "Symphony of Solitude" by JAYLEEBENJAMIN Symphony of Solitude is a song about the kind of loneliness that comes from being visibly different in a world that rewards invisibility.It’s about the years spent walking through life feeling like an outsider - not because of anything you did, but because of who you are, how you look, how you speak, and how people project their assumptions onto you before they ever bother to know you.Growing up mixed-race, gay, and visibly “not the masculine […]

    Symphony of Solitude is a song about the kind of loneliness that comes from being visibly different in a world that rewards invisibility. It’s about the years spent walking through life feeling like an outsider - not because of anything you did, but because of who you are, how you look, how you speak, and how people project their assumptions onto you before they ever bother to know you. Growing up mixed-race, gay, and visibly “not the masculine template,” you didn’t have the option […]

  4. "Nuts hat's?" Ich dachte das gäb's nicht mehr? Oder wieder? Wenn da nicht der Nutricode drauf wär, hätte ich geschworen dass die Dinger seit den 80ern in dem Automaten liegen! #food #junk #eighties #germany

  5. Voo Voo was ACE! Especially I dug how they smoothly switched genres, sometimes mid-song. But they always sounded themselves.

    At least these genres were included in their show: #jazz, #funk, #reggae, #punk, #eighties #newwave, #stonerrock (with baritone sax in the riff section)… and then there were those mellower songs with that #opera singer… Like… wtf!

    Many other bands would’ve made this sound pretentious gimmickry, but not Voo Voo. It was just… natural.

    And girls danced. Of course they did.

  6. The Mission: A Spiritual Blueprint Made Visible
