Babu Menos on Mirlo:
https://mirlo.space/babumenos/posts/The-Secret-Garden-is-Growing/
‘The Secret Garden is Growing
‘I started using the “supporters” feature in Mirlo a few weeks ago, and while I’m still in the process of finding my footing, I am quite happy how things progress. Those who support me financially (there’s only one tier, €1.50 or more), every once in a while find behind-the-scenes audio, snippets of upcoming new releases, or — most recently — a demo of the original song “No I Can’t” that last year became “Not Again”. What had been a love song evolved into an anti-fascist protest song.
‘You can listen to the new incarnation “Not Again” here https://mirlo.space/babumenos/release/not-again, and if you wish to become a Babista yourself and hear the original, please go this way https://mirlo.space/babumenos/support.’
Fresh on my #blog "New and new-to-me music" for this week. Swedish doom metal, Welsh metalcore, English folk, and some of the dirtiest pop music.

Fridays are, almost traditionally, release days. Usually, I don’t give a flying whatever, but today I’ll release a new track anyway. It’s called ‘Hold Me Tonight’ and I love it. Hope you do too.
‘Years ago, when I wrote and recorded under the moniker Zhouy and when climate catastrophe was even far less of a topic of any debate, I already felt threatened by the dystopian times to come (the very same we now live in). To cope, I wrote songs about this existential menace, as I still do now.
‘One outcome back then was the song ‘Hold Me Tonight’ which I release now in a freshly remastered version.
‘It was one of the rare occasions when I invited guest musicians. You’ll hear two additional backing vocalists, a cellist, and an electric (in more than one sense!) guitarist.’

While in the process of moving my music away from Bandcamp and to Mirlo (@mirlo), I listened to all the songs, some of which I hadn’t heard in quite a while.
Musicians, do you have favourites in your œuvre?
I realised I sure do. So I decided to share my personal top ten. Here we go:
1/2
1. Time Out (for its uplifting spirit and the welcome reminder to take it slow and easy)
https://mirlo.space/babumenos/release/make-me-do/tracks/11405
2. Remember Paris (for its message’s closeness to my heart and the fact that the bass drum is actually a mic tapping on the desk)
https://mirlo.space/babumenos/release/remember-paris
3. Only Lonely (for its glistering mood and open-tuning chord progressions)
https://mirlo.space/babumenos/release/if-not/tracks/11391
4. Before Long (for its limitation to the bare essentials and the bossa-like groove)
https://mirlo.space/babumenos/release/sounds-like-home/tracks/11372
5. One-Gether (for its celebration of solitude as a treat, not threat, and the supporting ‘oooh’ harmonies)

#NowPlaying @ Nothing Manor: Sting - The Dream of the Blue Turtles (1985). Saw Sting on tour for this album and was blown away by his drummer, the amazing Omar Hakim. Fantastically textured album. #music #80s #pop #altpop https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=d8ZLqnfvoYQ&list=OLAK5uy_mfEm2fXGyElgc4cy1i9ZeCzEsTUCGObSU
Wow, amazing blog post from @bsideguys about Bad Smell, from Play Both Sides.
"The track’s final metaphor of romantic interest as persistent unwanted odor transforms an everyday annoyance into something more profound – a wry commentary on how we sometimes mistake mere presence for worthiness."
I don’t think we've ever had such good/well written press before this album! #music #musicreview #altpop #alternativerock
I am starting a new series: ‘Babu Menos Instrumentals’ (BMI). Here’s one to celebrate nature.
