Prince - Electric Chair (SNL 1989)

Chuck Klosterman: "This was when the idea of emailing someone to do an interview was just starting to be possible. So my coworker Rob emailed Prince ten questions. And he answered all of them. And a lot of the questions, he would just answer with what would now be called emojis. Like we'd ask him a question, and he'd just send back a picture of a human eye. Or he would send back a pyramid or whatever. Except the one question he totally answered - and this was around the time they were talking about contracting the Twins and the Nationals - for some reason Rob asked him a question about that, and he gave a very cogent, full answer to that question."



Kevin Morby - I Have Been To The Mountain

Devo: This is the type of track this blog was built upon.



Baywaves - Time Is Passing U By

Whiskey: If you've worn out Tame Impala's Currents and want more, check these guys out. Heard them on Spotify's new Fresh Finds playlist, which I highly recommend. Are they crawling PFOS?!



Bibi Bourelly - Sally

Benny: I've been dancing around my room in my undies listening to Sally on repeat. And going back and forth between listening to Ego and writing in my journal crying.



Hamburger Helper - Watch the Stove

Meat MD: In the pantheon of themed mixtapes, it's no meow the jewels, but it's still got some flaaaame to it.
