Arts Vanity: The ‘Julie and The Phantoms’ Soundtrack Was My Top ... - Harvard Crimson

Image
As I loaded up my Apple Music Replay on Dec. 2, 2020 I was prepared to face a round of annual harassment as a proud defender of Apple Music amid a sea of Spotify Wrapped posts. But, as I scrolled through my top songs and artists I quickly realized there was a much larger embarrassment looming in my near future. To my shock, the "Julie and The Phantoms" soundtrack had climbed its way to number one on my most played albums list. For the unenlightened, "Julie and the Phantoms" is a hit Netflix children's series released in Sept. 2020. The show follows 15-year-old Julie Molina (Madison Reyes) as she rediscovers her love of music following the death of her mom a year prior to the show's start. On her journey she's accompanied by Luke (Charlie Gillespie), Alex (Owen Patrick Joyner), and Reggie (Jeremy Shada), a trio of ghost musicians who formerly made up the band Sunset Curve before their own tragic deaths. The big catch of the show is that no one but Julie c...

“I’m Locked In Now, Serge Ibaka”: Having Crowned Drake’s Album as one of the Best, Kevin Durant Caves in and Listens to OKC Teammate’s Music - The Sportsrush

Image
Kevin Durant is a strange character. Despite all his skills, his personality is perhaps the most relatable for most fans. KD is, after all, a bitter and mean man on social media who does whatever his heart pleases. It's something that, despite the clear pettiness, is so entertaining for fans. In fact, not all his tweets are conflict-oriented but most of them are entertaining regardless. Recently, Durant chose to share his top 5 albums of the year. The list was impressive and included the likes of I Never Liked You by future and Her Loss by Drake and 21 Savage. In case ya missed it…my top 5 albums of the year https://t.co/buUamPUJTH — Kevin Durant (@KDTrey5) December 27, 2022 After coming across his list, Serge Ibaka decided to slyly promote his own album.

In 2022, we saw acclaimed artists bring the heat. Warehouses, small venues, music festivals and more lit up the dancefloor with confetti, lasers, pyrotechnics and minimal production.

The real songs behind the classic 'Super Mario Bros' theme tunes - Far Out Magazine

Image
Since Nintendo released  Super Mario Bros   in 1985, it has become one of the biggest-selling video games of all time. It followed the successful 1983 arcade game  Mario Bros  and spawned a multimedia franchise of films, television series and games, making Mario, Luigi and their friends universally recognisable characters.  The game also features a memorable soundtrack composed by Koji Kondo, which helped to popularise the use of music in game design. Until this point, music was not an integral part of the average video game. Yet Kondo created the soundtrack for  Super Mario Bros  with two objectives: "to convey an unambiguous sonic image of the game world" and "to enhance the emotional and physical experience of the gamer". The theme song, created on a small keyboard, has been used prominently in other Nintendo games from  Super Smash Bros  to&nbsp...
