Isn’t it rather absurd that our “local” TV stations—which copy a lot from abroad—didn’t screen the send-off ceremony for the beloved Tshala Muana, the Queen of Mutuashi? Several generations of Ugandans were raised on Mutuashi, Soukous, Rumba & other genres of Congolese music.

The new Rochelle Jordan album is one of the best pop LPs of the year, just nails its stylish dance music aspirations and goes down real smooth even at an hour long. “I’m Your Muse” is a real surprise—light, moody R&B that ends with a dub techno outro (co-produced by Machinedrum!)

Fun Fact: Built almost entirely from synthesizers, “I Feel Love” was a radical mainstream hit in 1977. Giorgio Moroder’s machine-like pulse paired with Donna Summer’s vocals laid the blueprint for techno, house, and modern electronic dance music decades early.

Yesterday we lost a truly legendary singer and songwriter. His songs helped shape decades of music, and let’s be honest, he could probably write this post better than me. Thanks for the music and thanks for the memories, Neil. Rest in peace.

Fun fact! The music for the Xylo-Bone emote is taken from the later half of the Fortnitemares variant of the Battle Bus music - predating the emote by a little over a year! This is more known fact, but it still seemed like something fun to post about! :D

BioMetal for the SNES (Athena/Activision/1993) is a fast-paced, side-scrolling space shooter with nice sci-fi visuals. Buts it stands out due to the licensed music from the 1990s techno group 2 Unlimited on the Western release. Which sounds kinda out of place (reminds me of a sports arena) but it's cool and upbeat, nevertheless.
