what kind of melodic hardcore
We need a melodic hardcore resurgence. We got enough beatdown/nu metal hc. Begging to hear octave chords, and vocals with desperation

Bun B said Pimp C found out that D’Angelo was making his music with the same equipment Pimp used to make his and Pimp said “okay I need to read that manual” lmao.

Sly Stone and Brian Wilson in the same week. Two genuine visionaries who gave us so much, suffered so much, and both retreated from the outside world for long stretches of time, burrowing inside themselves, as their music became raw materials for entire genres and sub-genres.

we lost an icon 🕊️ R.I.P. Douglas McCarthy a tour de force of musical innovation and acumen. Your music forever changed my life listening to That Total Age on cassette driving to dance at the goth clubs with industrial rooms your music gave birth to. Always a fierce supporter of our label and will never forget the last time I saw you wearing our Sylvester t-shirt 💗 Sending our deepest sympathies to your family and loved ones and fans around the world 😢

I write my will to you from the torn chambers of my heart. I don’t think death will spare me this time. I live moment by moment through scenes that feel like the Day of Judgment. The bombing has intensified greatly, as if the genocide started today. We await our death in despair. Every moment, I look up at the sky filled with planes and imagine one of the missiles falling on my head. This insane thought gets stuck in my throat and chokes me. If I do not return to this world, I miss my friends dearly, those who have already preceded me to Paradise. I miss my cousin a lot. I will see you all soon. Make room for me to speak, for my heart is heavily burdened with so much. I talk to them here, my friends, but no one hears me, no one responds. Make room for me, for there are no longer trees or birds here to talk to. Tell everyone that I miss them so much. If I am to leave soon, I entrust you with every stone here in Gaza, for within them is enough love for the entire world. I entrust you with Gaza’s children—hug them and help them. I entrust you with Gaza’s women, whom the war has deprived of all meanings of femininity. I entrust you with my body, if you find it, to bury it well and not let this Nazi Zionist occupier take it. And if, one day, you find my words by chance, pray for me.

To say I was unsure how to approach this is an understatement. Still: I wrote about Jackmaster — an immense DJ and huge presence in many lives He personified an era in clubbing, then accelerated us moving past it. We owe the story, and Jack, honesty. RIP ra.co/features/4390?preview

I don't know what to say about the images of the burning dead in Gaza this morning. The vocabulary of outrage and disgust is exhausted. Shame at the moral nihilism of my country's government and so much of its press.
