@cambraca just found this.
Kinda a shame, but I agree it's better to let it go than to force it.
So long, #GenreOfTheWeek

It's been close to 50 weeks of #GenreOfTheWeek awesomeness, and I'm extremely grateful for all who have been involved in it. However, it's become more and more difficult for me to maintain the project so I've been thinking about stopping.
If anyone is interested in picking it up, I can commit to keeping the archive up-to-date (at https://info.musicians.today/genre-of-the-week). Is anyone interested? I think it's OK to let it die, too; all good things eventually do.

What better place to start than this?

Apparently Doom Metal is the genre of the week!
Doom is my favourite music genre by far, and I could post recommendations all day.
However, I'll show some restraint and recommend just one of my favourites: Cirith Ungol by Reverend Bizarre.

It's a haunting song about the Ringbearer's journey to Mordor.

@evan very nice, thx for sharing. I'm really liking the chill mood on this one (also, great transition at around 0:58).

If I'm lucky I'll be in Mendoza, Argentina at the end of January. Looking forward to all the alfajores.

🔊 #NowPlaying "Children's Story" (see what I did there?) by Slick Rick, from 1988, which is NOT "like 12 years ago" anymore.
#GenreOfTheWeek is #UKRap a.k.a. #BritishHipHop a.k.a. #BritHop

Here's one of my wife's favorites with a really catchy melody. Between the two we built quite a large Spotify playlist which made the subscription cost more than worth it for many years.

Can't end the week without posting this annoying, annoying track. Makes you wanna punch yourself in the face, but is somehow also hilarious and never gets old. I am sorry. 😆
🔊 #NowPlaying "El Pollito Pío" 🐣

Here's one from Ecuador, with a distinctly Andean vibe. I played this a fair number of times as my girls grew.
🔊 #NowPlaying "El Caballito Azul" (The Little Blue Horse) by Alex Alvear & Mariela Condo

Going way back down memory lane... As a kid in Chile, I used to watch this TV show character, "Pin Pón". I'm learning now (Wikipedia) that the actor who created him in '68 was exiled in '74, lived in Ecuador (!) where he did a version of the show for a local station, then moved to Cuba, and finally returned to Chile in '90 after democracy was restored. He continued the show in the iteration I'm familiar with.

🔊 #NowPlaying "La cuncuna amarilla" ("the yellow caterpillar" in Chilean Spanish) by Mazapán
My mom used to sing this to me, endlessly, whenever I was sick as a child, and I did the same with my girls. Good song.

From 'Stay Awake' - vintage Disney songs made by other people. 'Baby Mine' by Bonnie Raitt, was originally in the film 'Dumbo.' 🐘
