I wasn't planning on posting more Julia Holter songs for the time being, but here I am, and it feels right to take a few moments and share this one with you. True, Julia's music hasn't been utterly rocking my world, not as much as many other artists' work anyway, but there is a preciousness and peculiarity in her songs that makes them... I don't know, personally it's like I don't feel the need to go listen to them, but when I do it feels good! I am not very much able to explain this with words, so you better go and check out the tunes yourselves!!
Among the big amount of new music I've been approaching lately is Julia Holter, yet another artist I have discovered thanks to KEXP radio live videos. Listening to her latest album, released last year, I must confess I have not been immediately stricken by her music, which is kind of ethereal and easy to get lost into. Nonetheless after a few listens I have been able to enjoy a few more songs of hers, even though I don't know if I am going on to deepen my knowledge of her music soon. What I can tell you is that for sure there are a few songs worth listening, and this is one of the most accessible ones!!
A song or two per day is not dead, nor am I. The last ten days have been hectic, among the fullest and busiest of my life, and I'm sorry I didn't find the time or the energy to sit down and write even a single post for the blog, but so it was and so it should be. Yesterday I got back from Japan and this has probably the fullest travelling experience I've ever done, being with myself and my backpack (not backpacking though!), pushing my limits and trying to get the fullest experience, and I am not disappointed. I cannot even tell you it's been the best 10 days of my life, or this and that are beautiful... the only thing I can feel is that this trip has been so busy that it will take me some time to process it all, if ever. Even the things I've done and seen in Tokyo at the beginning of this journey look so far in the past... I really needed something like that to compensate for the idle months I've been spending at home lately! But after all the sea called me home, wherever it is!
