“⛯ MssingNo “Tears in the Club” king MssingNo’s influence cannot be understated. Since dropping the proto-viral “XE2” back in 2013, his misty-eyed R\&B futurism has quietly shaped the sound of today’s underground rap and club music alike; you can hear traces of it everywhere from bladee and Fakemink to US producers like F1lthy (Playboi Carti, Lil Yachty etc).”

“The Benju looks something like a crudely electrified zither operated by typewriter-like buttons. Its existence began as a Japanese children’s toy called a taishōkoto before it was adopted by Balochi musicians and made into the refined folk instrument that it is today. ”

“Sūn Byrd's music is universal and timeless, and there's really nothing that sounds like this on the Norwegian music scene today. It's perfect for large festival stages, would make a great soundtrack for countless films, or simply while you hang out after closing time at a smoke-filled off-license bar in the southern U.S.”

“***My Dad Can*** **reassures children that a parent’s wheelchair doesn’t change who they are.** Iris's dad is the best. He blows up her floaties when she wants to go swimming. He covers her eyes when they watch scary movies. Best of all, she loves that she can climb into his lap for warm cuddles. Her dad is amazing. But sometimes they meet people who can't see what she sees, and today is one of those days . . . **A heartwarming picture book about a young girl who learns that her dad's wheelchair doesn't define what he can or can't do, perfect for sparking meaningful conversations that celebrate inclusion.** ”
