Do you listen to any new bands? Or just same as 10 years ago? by dgold in c/music@beehaw.org

Okay, the old saying "horses for courses" comes to mind...

Yes, I actively search out new and wonderful music, and listen to it, and like it. Problem is that a lot of current music just sounds bad, either over- or under-produced, and i'm going deaf.

Last new music I really loved was Christine and the Queens, and that's almost ten years ago!!!

But, and here's the rub, when I want to sit here on a lovely summers evening drinking some cider with my spouse, I'll mostly put on music from 30+ years ago. Frank and Walters, New Order, Biggie, The Cure, MC Solaar...

Mostly? its because I know it, and as sounds become ever more remote to me and my brain, I can rely on my memories to fill in the bits I can't hear any more.

Panel discussion involving Catharine A. McKinnon and others held in Oxford last November, now captured in Signs Journal.

Note that McKinnon still maintains her opposition to sex-work/prostitution, and that forms (a small) part of her speech here on the issues of Transgender Law.___
