music of 2015



































Mac DeMarco
Saturday, 7 February 2015
Absolutely crazy that it was only this year that I discovered Mac DeMarco. It feels as if I've been listening to him for ages, and not just a year. It's great though, and I have to thank phiix's tumblr playlist. The first song I downloaded by him was "Freaking Out The Neighborhood" and it was on her playlist on her blog. I will never speak bad against autoplay on tumblr playlists again.


Solange
Sunday,  20 December 2015
I've always wanted to get into Solange, but I don't think that my "musical ear" had been developed enough, until now. I was looking up Tavi Gevinson and on one site, it said that one of her inspirations was Solange's EP: True. Now, I don't know if that is true, or not but I don't care. I fell in love with it. For some reason, the EP really reminds me of Janet Jackson in the 80s? I don't know, it kind of reminded me of that anyway.


Nirvana
16.1.15
Like Solange, I really wanted to be into Nirvana, and it just took time for my ears to develop and get used to that style. Also, like Mac, it feels like I have been listening to Nirvana, since forever, but it has only been this year??? I have no idea. That date, was when I put the Nevermind CD on my laptop, so I must have gotten the CD before, but I can't be bothered to look back through my journals and see when I actually got the CD. Anyway, I'm not sure which song made me get really into Nirvana, but I know that Come As You Are was the first song that I learnt on the guitar.


Heartstrings - Leighton Meester

I haven't listened to any of her other stuff other than this song. This song though, is so dreamy though? I didn't think I'd like it at all actually, but I do? And it's really confusing me? Anyway, here it is: Heartstrings
