Free Yourself

“‘Free Yourself’ is the beginning of a new era for me,” Ware said in a statement. “I’m so excited for people to have this song for the end of their summer; to dance, to feel no inhibitions, and to feel joyful because that’s how I’ve been feeling recently being able to tour again and being able to sing again. Enjoy yourself, Free Yourself!” -- In the video for this banger, watch Ware stride into a regal hall to lead a freaky congregation in a ritual dance.: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aD7F6M9fsms

Gobbledigook
by Sigur Rós
(131 plays) | (0 fans)

It’s KEXP’s 50th anniversary! To celebrate we’re playing songs you know and love from 2008! kexp.org/50/ This was the first track on the Icelandic band's fifth full-length LP -- the name translates to "With a Buzz in Our Ears We Play Endlessly". The album was originally going to be recorded in English, but the band decided that singing in Icelandic felt more natural to them. Watch a live performance of "Gobbledigook" in Montreal in 2008: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fFsqKXokF68

Ovule
by Bjork
(11 plays) | (0 fans)

Writing on Instagram, Björk shared, "'Ovule' for me is my definition of love. It is a meditation about us as lovers walking around this world and i imagine 2 spheres or satellites following us around, one above us that represents ideal love, one below us representing the shadows of love, and we ourselves walk around in the third sphere of real love, where the everyday monday-morning meet-in-the-kitchen-love lives in." Guests on the album include Serpentwithfeet and Indonesian dance duo Gabber Modus Operandi. Björk's children, son Sindri and daughter Ísadóra, have recorded backing vocals while two tracks were written by her late mother, environmental activist Hildur Rúna Hauksdóttir, who died in 2018.

Dreams
by L’Épée
(8 plays) | (0 fans)

L'Epee, the band of Emmanuelle Seigner (Ultra Orange & Emmanuelle), Anton Newcombe (The Brian Jonestown Massacre), Lionel and Marie Liminana (The Limiñanas). It is very rarely that a musical project lives up to the billing of being a "supergroup". However, the exception to this rule comes in the shape of L'Epee. Far from being defeated by a world seemingly regressing into turmoil, L'Epee's strength comes from a long history of challenging the status quo -- they all share a fierce intelligence and an outsider aesthetic which, over the decades, has been sharpened to a razor's edge. https://www.forcedexposure.com/Artists/LEPEE.html
