Linking with the rising producer Sonny Digital, he put out his first music, which garnered tremendous interest and culminated in his 2014 debut EP I LOVE MAKONNEN, released through Drake’s OVO Sound. There, he saw the rise of trap and developed a writing interest of his own, working on records with his mother and starting up a music blog. in 1989, Makonnen Kamali Sheran moved to Atlanta in 2001 with his mother. It was a borderless approach he picked up as a child in Los Angeles, trekking from house to house in a dangerous neighborhood and soaking up local rap, Aaliyah, and Shania Twain. Makonnen sounded like a cartoon crossed with an opera singer, all with a rapper’s sensibility and style. A druggy, trappy, trippy party anthem, the song blew up immediately and was remixed by Drake within weeks. The pre-chorus on this song makes me feel like I’m hang gliding.Everything got a little weirder after iLoveMakonnen arrived-at least, that’s how it felt when he dropped his song “Tuesday” in 2014. Have you ever wished Werner Herzog were a pop star? This is your new guy. That is why you should watch it right now.
A New York Times profile of Liechtenstein listed his next project as “a 10-part television series about the romance of gas stations.” The arty video for “Das Badeschloss (Made for the Future)” will not answer any of your questions. He worked as a puppeteer, a performance artist, and a theater director before inventing the alter ego “Friedrich Liechtenstein” to put out an album of electronic music paired with his vocals. Liechtenstein was born Hans-Holger Friedrich in Stalinstadt, the socialist planned community. Speaking of Germans, Friedrich Liechtenstein is a Berlin-based eccentric “who, according to colleagues, lives his entire life as if it were a conceptual artwork.” He went viral after starring in a commercial for the German grocery store chain Edeka.
Friedrich Liechtenstein, “Das Badeschloss (Made for the Future)” Why doesn’t Swift just date some hot folk-rock guys who are not from America? These ones are German. It’s a brilliant move on Blige’s part, like Dusty in Memphis but flying the other direction. talents like Disclosure, Smith, Naughty Boy, and Emeli Sandé. Blige is restrained while floating over the dark and sneaky track, the first single from her new album, The London Sessions, on which she collaborates with contemporary U.K. Blige’s “Right Now” takes it back to Blige’s classic debut style, while also being very forward-thinking, opening up new possibilities for her next act. Produced by Disclosure and cowritten with Disclosure, Jimmy Napes, and Sam Smith, Mary J. While we wait for 1989 to drop, we’ve been contenting ourselves with this orchestral instrumental version of “Shake It Off” that is a perfect soundtrack for slaying orcs, treading through the moors, or vanquishing troll demons. Taylor Swift, “Shake It Off (Orchestral)” - arr. Grungey fuzz rock from Scottish duo Honeyblood, this sounds like PJ Harvey grinding on Dinosaur Jr. Scott Walker + Sunn O))), “Brando”īOYHOOD 2: Boy Discovers Drone Music and Avant-Garde Film. Music videos that take place in laundromats are my weakness. Lo-fi magic with surf twang, for fans of Ariel Pink, MGMT, and the Madchester sound. Psychedelic stomp from Australia’s Pond, which contains three members of Tame Impala. I’ll look back on this and think, Man, how great was it when we had the club going up on a Tuesday? Pond, “Elvis’ Flaming Star” The video is suitably weird, and the song has such a nostalgic feel that I’m already getting nostalgic thinking about how nostalgic we’ll eventually be for this time in our lives. ILoveMakonnen, the Harry Nilsson of R&B, gets the remix treatment from Drake.
