a Sakamoto alltimer back in print - possibly a top 3 Sakamoto for us - all oddball, light but emotionally crushing pop interiors made with hi-gloss synths and unexpected edits, from farm animals to percolated drum machines = absolute core curriculum ✨

𝘉𝘦𝘤𝘰𝘮𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘓𝘦𝘥 𝘡𝘦𝘱𝘱𝘦𝘭𝘪𝘯 has the quaint “band versus the world” narrative of an Amazon Prime rockumentary aimed at boomers—only with better archival footage
Becoming Led Zeppelin, Surviving Sly and the Family Stone

“This is exactly why the Trump administration has sent me to this court, 1,000 miles away from my family.”
