ICYMI: Things I posted elsewhere this week (25 Jan 2025)

If you follow this website and/or get the newsletter, you should know that I also publish material elsewhere as part of various contractual arrangements. Here, for example, is what you’ll find in other places this week.

Weekly Global News Column: I took a deep dive into the music consumption numbers from 2024. Does this line up with your experience?

Five Songs You Must Hear This Week: Too busy to find cool new tunes? Here are five suggestions from me.

London Calling: Heartworms isn’t the greatest name for a band, but they sound good.

Undiscovered Gem of the Week: This guy is originally from Nepal. Take a listen to SOHM.

Throwback Thursday: A retro selection. This time, it’s something rather obscure but also something with a wild story.

New Music Friday: A round-up of new releases from January 24, 2024. Vocals-only Linkin Park? Yep.
