What I'm listening to today: "Massive Cure", Smoosh
At some point around 2000 the drummer for Death Cab for Cutie started teaching the drums to a local six year old, setting off a series of events leading to this album recorded when the drummer was 10 and her sister, on keyboards, was 12. They play with the exuberance of 10-year-olds and it really works. I love the casual, effortless poetry of this one track. Electric piano through an overdrive pedal just always works.

Chill, homey performance on some misfit toys. The thing on the left is the minichord, a modern, DIY-optimized (it's powered by a Teensy and you can solder the PCB and 3D print the casing yourself if you want) modern remake of the Suzuki Omnichord, which is an unusual instrument from 1981. This musician is just absolutely going to town on that qchord. They are shredding. Dreamcast jungle beats on the PO33
