big beat e-punk for breakfast
system of a down for dessert
hi my gorgeous bestie,
welcome to What Is This Regarding? where we take a critical lewk at wtf’s going on around us. this wk isn’t just like any old week. it’s the first week in a whole ass new year. so it only felt right that we set the tone, the proverbial soundtrack of our year to play softly in the background as we slay.
so what IS the soundtrack, you may be wondering? The Prodigy, Chemical Brothers, System of a Down, Rage Against the Machine, Aphex twin, Crystal Method, Massive attack, Portishead, Nine inch nails.
this is THE vibe. THE BIG BEAT, HIGH VOLTAGE, IDGAF, BDE attitude of the year.
it’s screaming, it’s soft, it’s got something for every e-punk.
let’s escape with tangential vibes like grungy soft club just breathe and a little dancehall and we’re TALKING. THIS is 2024 babes. no more bows. just beats.
this vibe is all about self-expression. being YOU, on loud. at home, at work, literally never turning down the volume. even your goosebumps are accessorized:
there’s a misconception that listening to system of a down means you’re the kind of edgy that would never be caught dead in abercombie - but that’s what’s so iconic about this whole vibe - the limit does not exist. the sweeter you dress the MORE ironic and iconic. also Jean Paul Gaultier very much gives hot-girl-meets-e-punk, so let it rock.
here, a lollipop is edgier than a cigarette.
take this week to ponder your inner e-punk. let your aura lead the way into this edgier, pre-internet moment in time. let’s unplug, unhinge, and unlearn all that was 2023.
as always, my beautiful reader, i can’t wait to see what we all do this year, the hectic excitement that is the 4th day of the year is still really owning my personal algorithm. so much could happen… so let’s make sure we all call each other, stay up, and project love and big beats all year long.
i love you like i love blasting this whilst driving,
amy
