Admittedly, this thematic choice is rather odd given the fact that we’re in the middle of an ongoing pandemic, but I’ll allow the fictional Tyler Baudelaire to do as he pleases.

The theme of travel is present in this record from front to back. This time he calls himself Tyler Baudelaire, a man of class and exquisite taste who enjoys eating brioche in France and traveling in luxury cars across Europe. Tyler takes on yet another persona in this album. Tyler’s been on a hot streak for a while now, and CALL ME IF YOU GET LOST is no exception. This album’s relationship with nature is the reason why I believe this album is best listened to outdoors, so grab a pair of headphones and take a walk around campus while you soak in the tight 42-minute tracklist of Mood Valiant.ĬALL ME IF YOU GET LOST – Tyler, the Creatorįortunately for his fans, the LA based rapper, producer, and fashion designer (amongst many other titles) known as Tyler, the Creator, releases an album every two years like clockwork. I just can’t get enough of the lush, layered vocals and catchy bass line. My favorite track on this record is And We Go Gentle.

With song titles such as Flight of the Tiger Lily, Rose Water, and Stone and Lavender, the group is not shy about how they are influenced by the natural world and indigenous aboriginal imagery. This album’s neo-soul influence creates a groovy blend of natural sound that often feels like it was recorded by Mother Nature herself. Their most recent release, Mood Valiant, stays true to their self-acclaimed “genre-fluid” style. Even if you have not heard the name of this band, you may have heard their music sampled by superstars such as Drake, Kendrick Lamar, and Anderson. Hiatus Kaiyote is a group based in Melbourne that manages to pop up more often than you may think. On that note, here are a few albums released this year that I’ve been listening to. I’ve since re-evaluated my admittedly excessive level of music consumption. Nevertheless, I stand by my belief that music is an indispensable art that can not only increase your productivity but bring countless hours of pleasure. Keep in mind that these stats only include time spent listening to a single streaming platform. I realized I may have gone a bit overboard with my listening habits when Spotify notified me back in 2017 that I had listened to a total of 108,455 minutes of music that year, which according to my calculations is over 75 days of constant music consumption. Whether I’m driving, studying, exercising, or just hanging out, I almost always have music playing. The art form that isn’t mentioned quite as much in literary circles is music, and personally, music is something I couldn’t do without for even one day.
FANTANO CALL ME IF YOU GET LOST SERIES
In fact, Falvey’s “Flick or Flip” series is dedicated to discussing exactly that. Film is also given a fair amount of attention, especially when a beloved book is adapted to the screen. Here at Falvey Memorial Library, we certainly emphasize the importance of reading.
