things i’ve liked this week, vol. 4

2025-06-03

summary: here are some things, new (to me), that i’ve liked this week.

or, the last six months. insert something about time not being real.

music

under tangled silence by djrum

i’ve been listening to this constantly. sonically it’s a combination of acoustic instruments and drum-and-bass. i bet this would sound great while hiking on a mushroom trip. it certainly feels like a landscape, morphing from a lush orchestral meadow to the rainforest light of dappling percussion, to a whitewater rapid of synths. a very special album.

revengeseekerz by jane remover

i love to be the age where i can say, i’m extremely old fashioned and listen to very little music from younger generations, yet i vibe with this. so i will. dissociative hip hop combined with emo, it’s nothing i listened to as a kid—so nostalgia can’t be it. it must just be that good, even if i’m not really sure what hyperpop is anymore.

short film

“homemade gatorade” by carter amelia davis

a short film that is a fever dream through the world we live in, where everything is amusing but vapid; nothing seems really real; and where our machinery seems to drive us straight into oblivion.
