Madchester

For a city with so many different bands and sounds in its history, it might seem strange to just pick one moment, but I am, as I said, nostalgic…and old.

Nexus NarratorPublished 7 days ago in BeatSo I Talked to ChatGPT About AxCx (IT DIDN’T GO WELL)
In the modern era, businesses have to be insanely careful not just what they say, but what their products, representatives and employees do. What they have to say, what they stand for, what they believe, both the left and right are willing to boycott over the slightest little disagreement. When your product is a sometimes erratic AI, you have to be extra careful about what it says. Maybe that’s when I wanted to talk about Seth Putnam and Anal Cunt, our conversation kept getting flagged and censored.

Liv Hanna Releases New Single "lonely"
Liv Hanna kicked off the summer with the fiery track, "Back To Hell." The eclectic, "Back To Hell," is a mental health anthem. The track equates Hell with the hellish headspace that many are in or constantly find themselves falling back into. The single draws on Liv Hanna's personal experiences and takes a deep dive into topics such as isolation, rejection, and depression. The song isn't the quintessential Pop record as it features sounds from various genres such as Alt-Pop, Dark Pop, Indie Pop, and Pop Soul. The songstress now returns to close out the fall with her new single, "lonely." Similarly to "Back To Hell," Liv Hanna puts her unique, distinctive twist on the Pop genre. "lonely" may best be viewed as an Alt-Pop/Dark Pop record, but the song is more eclectic in nature as it features synths, the ebb and flow of up-tempo and downtempo sounds, and has elements drawn from Electropop, Pop Rock, etc. Also, in a similar fashion to "Back To Hell," "lonely" provides listeners with heartfelt lyrics and emotive, booming vocals. Ironically, "lonely" will make listeners feel less lonely.
