🎵 Keep It To Yourself

If all goes as planned, I will be going to see the bands TOPS and Men I Trust at the Ritz in the fall. While I mentally prepare to see those bands live, there is a new track from TOPS spinoff Marci, the "solo" effort of Marta Cikojevic (with plenty of help from David Carriere). The video has a tight focus on Cikojevic as she wanders around an urban landscape lip synching into a microphone.

The song is more of what we've come to expect from the pairing of Cikojevic and Carriere — smooth stylings heavily indebted to 70s sensibilities. It's theme, though, centers around appreciating the person you are with. There are consequences for stepping out, and Cikojevic warns us that it's a mistake. Cheers for monogamy.

Matter Refounded and Rebounded

I love the read-it-later tool Matter, but it seems like it's no longer an active project getting updates. The Matter Obsidian plugin makes my startup time somewhere from 30-60 seconds and it hasn't been touched in 2 years. Readwise, meanwhile, just updated their plugin this week.
