I’ve been super excited to bring this series back to you. If you haven’t read this series before this is a series of blog posts called, “What I’m Listening to Wednesday”. I started this series initially last year as a way to talk about music, because I love doing that and as a way to have something to published on this blog on the alternating weeks were I don’t share a new episode of the Musically Cogitating Podcast. Though it has taken me a few extra weeks, my plan moving forward is to do this post every Wednesday.

If you remember, some of those posts included multiple things that I was listening to at the time. One post had around 5 things. Since this series will be weekly now, I’ll probably share one or two things as highlights of what I’ve been enjoying over that week.

This week I’ve been listening to Yasuke by Flying Lotus. I’ve always wanted to be a fan of Flying Lotus, but for whatever reason I totally resisted. Well, I’ve taken the plunge and am now a raging fan. I’m such a fan that I’m slowly collecting all of Flying Lotus’ vinyl. Anyways, this album is great. It’s the music for a 6-part tv series on Netflix that I’m hoping to watch. I’m not typically a person who listens to soundtracks, of any kind, but the recent release of The Matrix soundtracks alongside this one has me interested.

Regardless of your feelings towards soundtracks or electronic music broadly, I highly recommend listening to this album. It’s very easy to listen to when doing something, but when not doing anything either!

I’ll share a playlist of all the music in this series sometime soon.

What are you listening to this Wednesday?
