Hello hello, as usual, taking a break on this end of month fiasco to write about some of the great music of February that I discovered! Actually I discovered a lot of music in this month, thanks to Spotify as usual, from their weekly release radar playlist! Like I discovered 3 new artists this month wow!

Okay lets begin

Song of The Month: Summer of My Discontentment by Geographer

Right beginning with the album I enjoyed this month, it's Drastic Measures by Bayonne! I discovered Bayonne early last year from this song "I Know" and I love his music! This is another great album by him and I really love how everything seems to flow in the album. Drastic Measures is my favourite from the album, and also thanks for including I Know in the album! It's a great song :D

Okay I think I should do another segment called Spotify Discoveries where I list out the songs/artists I discovered via Spotify. And for this month, it's a long list but here goes!

Summer of My Discontentment by Geographer
A great song, I just fall in love with every element from this song. The piano riff, the melodies, the lyrics and the whole feel and buildup for the song. I can't wait to read the whole lyrics though!

Permanent Way by Charlie Cunningham
I love this song as well because it is something I haven't really listened to...? Like how the guitar and synths seems to go along very well with the song! It's a pretty interesting but awesome combination!

And this is another segment of YouTube discoveries!

San Francisco Street by Sun Rai
Another of those "video appears on my recommended tab" song that I'm thankful to discover! Man I wish I discovered Sun Rai way earlier. His music is such a great music to drive by to!

Till We're In The Sea by RKCB
Another great song discovered from Sheepy. It's an amazing "driven" song, from the piano rhythms and beats, and the whole song is such a complete package. Hope to hear more from them.

Balada Insan Muda by Diskoria
I've heard of Diskoria before but never had the chance to go to one of their disko session mwahaha. They released this debut single and man it's an beautiful gem of Indonesian music really. Brings me back to the 80s, and I think they did a brilliant job. So excited for more music from them!

As for Juice by Lizzo, I discovered her from Coldplay's twitter where they were telling songs that they are currently in love with. And hot damn, this song is fire! To me, songs that make you feel good is getting rarer these days. But Juice is an exception, this song is amazing and it makes you dance!

Alright that's all for this music of February. I will write here soon! Man, it's been busy again but I'm making some changes for next month! I hope it works. I hope February has been treating you well. May we March on to March and the rest of 2019 with zest and gusto! Go forward my beautiful humans.
