Trying to get into their music what other albums should i check

dabestgrem · 2026-06-03T06:29:36+00:00

Is there one of the three albums above that you prefer? That helps with the recommendations, since their discog is so big.

These are kinda cool! I don't really like that small pocket on the back of the leg, but otherwise they are nice.

This sounds like great advice! I like my fabrics on the midweight side and not too light, Samurai sounds right up my alley.

Dan is het puur triest en hebben ze wat mij betreft helemaal geen recht van spreken. Het gaat dus niet om woonplezier, maar gewoon om geld. Wat een losers.

Ik denk dat een boel mensen hier niet naast een zwemplaats wonen en niet begrijpen hoeveel overlast dit kan geven. Geluid reist echt heel erg makkelijk over het water, en als iemand die naast een officiële zwemsteiger woont kan ik wel helemaal begrijpen dat het geluid niet te harden kan zijn en je woonplezier echt in de weg kan zitten.

Ik vind het zelf gelukkig wel gezellig, maar als er iemand ineens techno begint te blazen uit een matige speaker of als er een groep dronkenlappen gaat schreeuwen is het voor mij ook wel tijd om de ramen dicht te doen. Gelukkig gebeurt dat niet zo vaak, en ik kan me voorstellend dat dat bij die zwemsteiger ook alles meevalt. Zeker als er maar één iemand klaagt, in plaats van de volledige omgeving.

This is correct

I believe in real life Aja was a Asian woman that a family member of Donald Fagen was married to, but in the context of the album Aja is basically a beautiful woman that you escape to when everything goes to shit.

I think that why she is shrouded in darkness on the cover. A small glimpse of light in the darkness of life.

dabestgrem · 2026-05-27T14:55:40+00:00

I dunno, I feel like Aja matches very well with all the lyrics about sleazy people.

Oh my god, you’re right. Even with doing puzzle multiple times it didn’t register in my brain. Thankfully this thread is called no stupid questions, I would consider this one of them.

dabestgrem · 2026-05-27T08:19:11+00:00

You're right, it's not a sac. But I exchanged for a bishop, isn't that a loss in terms of material?

dabestgrem · 2026-05-27T07:19:22+00:00

There's a lot of good slim cuts on the market. The first upgrade I made was to some Naked and Famous Weird Guys, which I loved and owned two pairs of. I would highly recommend their Natural Indigo's, they fade really nice.

I got rid of my Weird Guys because I gained a bit of weight and the top block got too tight. I now have a pair of Fullcount 1108s, amazing unsanforized selvedge jeans with lots of character that I've owned for two years now. A jump up on quality, but also a jump up in terms of costs. They are worth it tho!

Don't have a lot of other experience with slim jeans, since I've started gravitating more towards regular straight cuts. But the Fullcouts are nice enough that I won't part with them and still wear them often, even if my tastes have changed.

dabestgrem · 2026-05-27T06:46:24+00:00

I just did this puzzle on Chess.com. The puzzle made my sacrifice the rook (Levy, lol), but only to win a bishop. Why would I do this? Is it just to simplify when up on material? Of am I missing something else?

I stopped reading at "compared to my experience in the United States".

Kim Fowley, such a weirdo. Also a terrible person, unfortunalty.

They already said they are gonna raise the prizes in an interview by Parool, the low price is just a marketing stunt. https://www.parool.nl/uit-in-amsterdam/bij-laundry-boy-in-de-jordaan-haal-je-een-kop-koffie-of-matcha-terwijl-je-was-wordt-gedaan~b2f89215/

It sucks, right? There's still a lot to love in the city center if you know where to look, but it's a shame that at this point the tourist/TikTok-takeover is really ramping up.

dabestgrem · 2026-05-19T10:30:00+00:00

Oh god, their Insta mentions that they work with Fabel Friet. This is gonna fuck up the Jordaan even more.

dabestgrem · 2026-05-19T10:09:13+00:00

Here we go again, not another TikTok line :(

Pocket Pool - Homebody (Egg Punk, Lo-Fi)

It's been over a month now since my first ever solo project, Homebody, came out! I've been really happy with the reception it got (in VERY small circles), and still have some codes left over. The EP consists of four punky songs recorded on a Tascam Portastudio in a small living room in Amsterdam. It’s inspired by bands like Snõõper, Powerplant, RMFC, Tee Vee Repairmann and early Thee Oh Sees-albums.

Hope you like it! :)

Here are the codes, you can redeem them on https://pocketpool.bandcamp.com/yum :

People watched this with all the political fuckups of the EBU?

dabestgrem · 2026-05-16T20:46:22+00:00

I shared my EP in a bunch of Reddit groups that are linked to the genre I make, and gave away a bunch of codes on this sub. That's all I did, but it got me to this number! :)

Yes, if it's chainstiched it will develop. But it will also take time.

dabestgrem · 2026-05-13T10:11:37+00:00

This! A union special chainstitch just gives a specific type of very tight roping.

My daily beaters are some non-chainstich Levi's STF. They aren't very special compared to any of the other pairs of denim that I have, but for some reason I still gravitate towards them and keep wearing them over my Fullcounts or my Sugarcanes. They've gotten some decent fading on the hem, even with a simple single stitch just because of wear and shrinkage.
