Alfredo & Edeath, are a couple of music lovers who met later in life but grew up loving almost the same bands and hating others but always listening to music, old and new, and apart from collecting vinyl and books and going to see every good band coming to town, (or a few miles away), got together and created "I think i better follow you around", a website/music blog, where they share all the music they like and help promote upcoming concerts, local bands from San Diego and Tijuana and amazing artists from around the world.
I think I better follow you around is an independent project.

Max Richter has shared a video for the song, “On The Nature Of Daylight”, off his album “The Blue Notebooks”
TRACKLIST:
1. “The Blue Notebooks” 2. “On the Nature of Daylight” 3. “Horizon Variations” 4. “Shadow Journal” 5. “Iconography” 6. “Vladimir’s Blues” 7. “Arboretum” 8. “Old Song” 9. “Organum” 10. “The Trees” 11. “Written on the Sky”
The video stars Elisabeth Moss. She shared this about Richter: “It just changed the way that I heard music. It changed what I thought a score could be. Since then, I’ve actually managed to weasel my way into becoming friends with him and he’s done some of the music on The Veil, my new show. And in a full circle moment I got to produce and star in the music video for ‘On the Nature of Daylight,’ and I also got to use it in The Handmaid’s Tale, in an episode that I directed. But that piece, and then Max Richter as an extension of that as a composer, so much of his music is a constant inspiration for me. It is the thing that I can listen to and it immediately puts me in whatever place I need to be as an actor. It’s so often what I use as a temp score as a director, and for me, it defines so much of the work and the characters that I play.”
Max Richter’s The Blue Notebooks draws from Kafka’s “The Blue Octavo Notebooks”, where Kafka’s reflections on alienation and doubt resonate with the themes of the record. The Blue Notebooks was conceived as a protest record, a response to what was happening in politics around the build-up to the Iraq war where I was really struck with doubt about what was happening. And I thought about Kafka, who’s the patron saint of doubt, and I thought about making a piece which expressed everything, so we recorded this.

Benefits have shared a new single, “Missiles”, off their upcoming album “Constant Noise” out March 21st via Invada Records.
Kingsley Hall shared this about the song: “We wanted to release a song that emphasised our commitment to still create wildly angry music, but in an unconventional way. There’s no shouting or obvious sloganeering here, yet it’s still seething with fury. Lyrically it’s an attempt to look at our own comfortable mundane western lives and question why the terror and horror of others can fade so far into the background that it barely registers when it’s mentioned on the news or pops up on your phone. The soundscapes that Robbie Major and James Welsh (producer) created for the track match the tension in the lyric, slowly building the intensity to an uncomfortable finale. In the past we’d have tried to get the same effect by simply adding big blast beat drums or a slab of concrete noise. With this song, and indeed the whole album, we felt it was important to not rely on old tricks, to try something new, to push ourselves.”
The video for the song was directed by John Kirkbride.
Tyler, The Creator has shared a remix of the Kendrick Lamar song “Hey Now”.
Tyler shared this about the anniversary of his debut solo album: “BASTARD released 15 years ago. thank you to everyone who listened to anything over the years. was in such a different zone musically and as a person, but was determined to be who i am today. full of gratitude cause it all came true. earl and i got to do ASSMILK; i did ODD TODDLERS at coachella main stage how wild?!? this album was made at ages 16-18. what a time. thank you.”
The video for that “THAT GUY” was directed by Tyler Okonma.
Hauntu have shared the first single, “Sadist Sun”, of what will be their 1st full length album.
“Sadist Sun” is available digitally now via Sell The Heart Records and Ana/Kata Music.
Hauntu is a product of pandemic isolation. These songs were written as a reaction to what’s become of the world these last few years. The weight, the panic, and the dread that living through post-pandemic capitalism and imperialism has placed upon humanity.
Ford Proco has shared a single for the song, “Obreros Del Silencio”, off their album “Combustión Alfanumérica” out via At At Records.
TRACKLIST:
1. Matryoshka decoder 2. El Instante Previo feat Ul4lume 3. Dream dreamer 4. The Gum 5. Human bomb 6. Dos chicas suecas 7. Obreros del silencio 8. Dream electric 9. Piel de ángel 10. Nueve números infinitos
A press release says this about the album: “”Combustión Alfanumérica” promises to be an art-pop gem, retaining Ford Proco’s signature kinetic sound with its distinctive filters and hooks. The album features notable collaborations, with Ul4lume (from Casino Shanghai) lending her vocals on “El Instante Previo,” and Javier Cortez and Angela Bloem providing vocal layers on “Piel de Angel.” The tracks weave through dream pop, mutant electro, meta ambient, and synth body music, showcasing the band’s genre-defying approach. Despite the often-misused label of electronic music, Ford Proco has steadfastly developed their unique style, known since their inception as “Autoconst.”
The album’s cover art is a surrealist collage by Steven Stapleton (Nurse with Wound), complemented by a sleek new Ford Proco logo and design by Acamonchi.”
