CHOTINER: A self-described Nine Inch Nails superfan should be capable of naming one song off the Girl with the Dragon Tattoo score. ME: "Is Your Love Strong Enough" is excellent. The "Immigrant Song" cover too. CHOTINER: I was referring to the instrumentals. ME: No no, of course. And that's fair.

I took Tylenol as needed throughout my pregnancy. I am a doctor. I order Tylenol for pregnant women regularly. Tylenol is safe in pregnancy. RFK Jr is ignoring a huge recent well-done study because he doesn't like the answer it gives. There is no causality between Tylenol and autism.

i don't like the thought of oboists being able to walk amongst us undetected

Oftentimes when you when you see the names of great thinkers, writers and statesmen engraved on a facade those are what’s known as the architect’s “dream blunt rotation”

Tonight I am DJing the opening of a gluten-free bakery in Greenpoint (is the truth, as well as the most Brooklyn sentence ever written).

feels extremely bleak that promoting music as a classical artist these days involves streaming platforms wanting to know which of these categories you fit into

I'm not saying that Olivia Nuzzi should be unemployed forever, but I *am* wondering how an outlet with a crumb of credibility thinks Nuzzi can be ever trusted in this line if work again

Hello I am Mark Zuckerberg, genius. We have invested $600 billion into this technology that lets a camera recognize that you are holding soy sauce and then searches the internet for recipes with soy sauce. It works 11% of the time and retails for $1,500.00

It has been over a year and a pretty hard slog but today I am finished with "The Blue Hour" for violin and piano, composed for Sarah Saviet & Joe Houston which will get its premiere at Donaueschingen Musiktage on October 18th and a UK premiere @hcmfuk.bsky.social in November.

fortunately we have a model for this

The surname on Anton Webern’s gravestone looks like the logo for a superhero comic

My brain is still asleep so I looked at this and immediately produced a piping hot take

Oh man you don’t wanna fuck with Tino

I'm sorry Leon Botstein what??

I too have vague plans to offer real experiences

Can you imagine what would happen to the Healing Frequencies people’s heads if you explained the tuning system behind La Monte Young’s Dream House drone

Found out this morning that we lost Hermeto Pascoal. Be more like Hermeto Pascoal today

if you're anything like me and you've always wanted to see Bobby Conn drink Mountain Dew out of a bong then today is your special day www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ri4R...

Thank god. If they made this chocolate at any other frequency I don't know what I would do

Ok lemme see here. Uh Gordon Getty is the greatest composer of his generation

I found a glave

I've posted here a lot about how much I hate my own writing but I gotta say, I feel way better about it after listening to the @ifbookspod.bsky.social episode about @chatterton.bsky.social's new book

Gonna tell my kids this was Brahms.

For fans of Arvo Pärt, he turns 90 tomorrow. ECM has released a CD of his latest choral works by the group Vox Clamantis, titled "And I heard a voice," and here is the title track.
