Inspired by the weekly reading thread by @Saymaz@lemmygrad.ml, I’ve decided to begin posting a weekly listening thread as a space to discuss things we’ve been listening to recently.

So, have at it! Popular or classical, western or non-western, communist or even anti-communist, feel free to mention any and all kinds of music here.

    Oh, do you play the piano?

    But yeah, it was a nice thing. Was for a music class of a kind yeah. Kind of a musical history/culture study kind of thing if I remember right. It’s been a while.

        That’s awesome, good for you. I’ve sometimes had aspirations to learn a musical instrument, but never found the right context to do it in I guess (and instruments can be expensive lol). I haven’t heard that cover before, but I just looked it up and it’s really good. :D Best of luck with learning the track… or, uh, best of dialectical process with learning it. Something like that. :P

          yeah, having access to instruments + taking lessons can be prohibitively expensive for a lot of people, and it takes a time commitment that can be difficult to, well, commit to. but, singing is always free, at least!

          and thanks! i might not learn it all the way but it’s still fun to fiddle around with
