#NewMusicFriday – 25/04/2025

A strange and disturbing week, at the beginning of which a progressive (for Catholicism) pope died the day after meeting an American vice-president whose views he was diametrically opposed to. We need a new voice to stand up to global fascism and anti-immigrant rhetoric.

The music (many youtube links):

Freya Goes West – Beneath You
Showpony – Shine
Ziarra – Oh Gen
Billboard Echo – Serpents Tale
Honey Parade – Let Me Down
Charcoal Greys – Sober
Kalliope Jones – Not My Body
ARCEU5 – Adrenaline
WA Mozart – Requiem K626; I.Introitus; II. Kyrie; III.a Dies Irae (1791/92; Suessmayr completed)
Other Half – Transgression Is Outdated
Lache – Rope
You Know Who – Cheat Codes
Ramona’s Tea Party – Waves

Lots of crackers there. And if you can make the time to listen to the whole of Mozart’s Requiem, please do. It could change your life.
