Julianna Zachariou's "Dreamer Dreamer" Feels Like Finding a Lost '70s Recording
San Diego's Julianna Zachariou has this uncanny ability to make you forget what decade you're living in. Her latest track, "Dreamer Dreamer," doesn't just nod to '70s California folk rock—it genuinely sounds like someone unearthed a pristine recording from Laurel Canyon circa 1973.

Where the Sun Meets the Earth
I. The Last Horizon The village of Elaren sat at the edge of the world—or so the stories said. Nestled between steep cliffs and golden plains, it was the last place before the sun dipped beneath the earth each night, setting the sky ablaze in fire and promise. For generations, the villagers believed that if you stood on the western cliffs at just the right moment, you could see the place where the sun meets the earth.

This was during the 2000s indie rock boom, when soft vocals and quirky production ruled the airwaves. Most of these tracks never cracked the top 40, but they were huge in their respective genres--and now, in 2025, these songs have an added layer of nostalgia that makes them ripe for revisiting.

Five Songs That Should Find A Permanent Home In The Red Hot Center Of A Collapsing Star
I wasn’t going to participate in this. Music is like pizza toppings… most people like normal, good quality things, and some people are wrong and like pineapple. It’s not worth my time to argue with the neanderthals who like the latter. There’s plenty around to make my blood boil and delving into those songs I spend time consciously avoiding isn’t exactly what I want to do with my free time.

When Talent is Non-Existent
When I saw Sam Spinelli's challenge, asking us to name and shame our five least favourite songs, I got very excited. I can be a grumpy, judgemental, opinionated ass at the best of times (ask Ruth, the good lady wife!), but when it comes to music, I've learned to try and keep schtum when I think something is terrible. All because I'm just trying to be a better person (My Name is Earl opening ref, anyone?).
