A koto plays a part in the plot of "The Honjin Murders", though as I'm near the beginning of the story, quite what its significance is I've yet to discover. However, the mention of the instrument immediately made me think of the sublime "Koto Song" by The Dave Brubeck Quartet, so their album "Jazz Impressions of Japan" is now my soundtrack ❤️ ??❤️

Musicophilia: Tales of Music and the Brain | Oliver Sacks

I got this email from Taylor Bradshaw inviting me to his private discord group and here, I‘m showing my response to the email and his response. I‘m nervous about it. I‘m a very quiet person. I don‘t know if I‘m going to have anything helpful to contribute to his music project or if I‘ll be saying very much during the Zoom meetings. I don‘t know if this will be the right fit for me but I‘ll try it out and see.

Billie Eilish: the Ultimate Fan Book (100% Unofficial) | Sally Morgan

I watched this documentary this week. It follows the life of Billie from 2016-19. It covers her & her brother writing, recording, & releasing the album "When We All Fall Asleep, Where Do We Go?" & the struggles that came with their new fame. I loved that they showed everything; the good, the bad, the painful. Watching & listening to her songs now, hits a little different knowing the back stories that accumpany them.

Prince | Matt Thorne

TRANSA was a compilation album from last year highlighting the work of trans and non-binary artists. My second favorite song on it is a cover of "I Would Die 4 U" with Lauren Auder and Wendy & Lisa, which led me to a deep dive of W&L.
Members of Prince's band The Revolution, they have been recording since 1986 and also write for TV and film, including the Emmy-winning theme of Nurse Jackie.

Free Energy - Love Sign
