He wrote a half decent review of Ladi6 last week, but to coin his pet phrase; ‘diminishing returns’ characterizes his output of late, right about the time he starting posting poetry and short stories on offthetracks.

often have knowledge and insight
There is that, but ideally I prefer a reviewer to simply look and listen, then expound on the music and cover art – something that Simon has utterly failed to do on this and countless other occasions. He gets a little too caught up in canons and how things fit within the hierarchy IMO.

If you’d like an opinion about music unswayed by baubles and trinkets, you could ask me: I’m a housewife with a giant music collection
I’d read your music blog Danielle, I’m sure it would piss me off far less often than Sweetman’s.
ETA I'm generally pissed off by music reviews.

Ha, I really wasn’t expecting that Jackson. smooth video. I’ve found most of her catalogue on xiami.com, I’m going to enjoy listening how she found her way from there to here.
OT, neither Royals nor Tennis court grabbed me, perhaps I was distracted by the videos or…but I finally listened to the full Lorde EP last night, and was particularly taken with the eponymous track and understandably(?) perplexed by the closer, both very engaging.

Anyway…phenomenal songwriting there, I’d never heard (of) Janis Ian.
Speechless. -

Loving that first water lilies shot @17:41, very Monet, beautiful deep blue in the bottom corner, keep that up and expect to be hearing from Yves Klein’s legal team.
