Some Music I'm Currently Listening To

What did the first two months of 2023 yield?

Well usually I wait until the end of the year to share the music I’ve been listening to, but I keep discovering so much new, interesting stuff that I thought I might periodically share what I’m listening to now. Why wait until the end of the year to share it when you can listen to it right now, right? So let’s get to it!

Nuovo Testamento - “The Searcher”

I honestly can’t get enough of this song. In fact, I can’t get enough of Nuovo Testamento’s 2021 album New Earth. At just under 33 minutes this album is superb from start to finish. It’s got that italo-disco sound which is hot in the scene right now (makes sense since two of the three members are from Italy). They have a new album, Love Lines, coming out this week.

Catherine Moan x Primer - “Pavement 2”

I initially was drawn to this video because of it’s weird vibes and equally absurd video. I’d never heard of either Catherine Moan or Primer before. They certainly have a quirky, interesting chemistry. Upon repeated listens I’ve found that I rather enjoy the song as well.

“My Heart”

This is the second song off their two-track collaboration. This video really leans into random wackiness, with the stock images of corporate boardrooms motif having absolutely nothing to do with the subject of the song. But the song itself is actually good. Honestly, I think they’re selling themselves a bit short by appearing to not really care about what they’re doing.

Primer - “Anesthetized”

Again, I had never heard of Primer before coming across the previously mentioned collaboration. Here’s her single “Anesthetized” from 2019. An absolutely beautiful song with a sublime chorus. The emotions on display are magnified by this simple, kinetic video. I can’t quite believe that this video only has two thousand views. It deserves many more.

Dead Serpent feat. Binzatina - “Destruction”

This one is more in line with the kinds of music played in dark clubs that I like, so it might not be for you. A Chilean based artist, I could see this track played in the back or secondary room at the club. Interesting song that’s more of a vibe - completely meh video though.
