The Chamber of Graves lies silent except for your scuffling footsteps on the dusty cedar planks. In the middle of the antechamber (of graves) there is a raised dais with an inscription: SPEAK IN THE COMMENTS THINE FAVORITE SONG LISTENED TO IN THE PAST SEVENDAY1
1: 7000 beats
My pick this week is a track by SAKANAMON off their new album HAKKOH. This track is just kind of jaunty and floaty in a way that I think is nice.
I've been listening to L'Impératrice's album Matahari this week, and the titular song, Matahari, lives in my head.
i think my favorite one i heard this week was trolley stop by jay electronica, from a bootleg release from 2008... i rlly love those opening few lines and the vocals throughout the whole track are just super fun

Fall In Step by Jaydiohead
i recently rediscovered this album as i was shuffling through my library on a whim. i love the way the producer chose to fit Jay’s 4/4 rap onto Radiohead’s 5/4 instrumentals: instead of dropping one beat each bar to turn 5/4 into 4/4, they dropped the last two beats of every other bar, turning 2 bars of 5/4 into a bar of 5/4 followed by a bar of 3/4, which maps onto the vocals almost as 8/4 but preserves the wonky rhythm of the original instrumentals. it’s really devious and i’m super into it
