Think I'll start posting some music I'm enjoying and offer some takes on whatever I feature. My struggle with mental illness has not been as serious as others, and I have been so grateful that I've been able to manage it, but with that, music has been my constant!
When working on the Fantasyland project, I was listening the album
Wildflower by the legendary Avalanches, an Australian group which layer samples in such an meticulous, yet smooth way that really challenges what it means to sample. Their tone is just beautiful, very sunny and lively, almost whimsical... remind you of a certain place in the Magic Kingdom?
I just found this mix they did for BBC Radio 1, and since I'm a big believer in multi-media inspiration, maybe you will be inspired yourself! The mix has something for everyone, but blends it in a way where all the genres equal out.
While I'm at it, any thoughts on Stitch's Great Escape tentatively leaving? I'll be crushed when it happens, the franchise was so prominent in my childhood. The show, yes, it has it's flaws and I'd much prefer a more critically-acclaimed attraction for my beloved blue fuzzball, but I took what I could get!
Wanna see that soon, and I'm just wishing that I can see Wishes before it leaves, I had a little existential crisis the last time I saw it last summer: we hit DHS, AK, and MK in a matter of a day, so we missed the fireworks, and I've never been old enough to remember it... that I wanna see before it's gone. Anyone got a house down in Orange County lmao
