I got back to China on Saturday, and it's been a great weekend. I arrived Saturday morning and actually had to run and do a health check for my Australia visa, but then met up with a friend for coffee, then went home and got a few errands done and some planning for the family visit done, and then went out. I had made plans to go to this place Shake, which is a supper club with live music that has great food and great music and I haven't been to in a very long time. But before that, I went and drank a bit of wine. Not a bunch, but a bit. There was a Spanish wine festival that my sister and some friends were at, so I just met up for the tail end, which meant only a couple glasses of wine. Followed by many many cocktails and much dancing and eating. Great night. Great first day. Not so great second day. That was all hungover. So I did not leave the house. I barely even left bed before 11:00am. I had to cancel my yoga class and just lay in bed watching TV. Which was actually fantastic. And then when Hanna came home from the gym, we watched a movie and took a nap. And then had a private yoga lesson at the house, which means I did work out after all! And then did more trip planning, ordered dinner, and watched another movie. What a great day, despite the hangover.
Now I have two exciting songs to share today from two exciting bands. One of which is one of my favorites. That being Little Dragon. It seems like they haven't done anything in forever, but they actually put out an album in 2017. But I guess that was in April. And actually, this is the fourth stand alone single they've put out since that album came out. So I have no idea what I'm talking about. They've been busyish. And so they're putting out an EP next month (apparently their first) called Lover Chanting. Which is also the name of this song. And they've moved over to Ninja Tune, which is a fantastic label. Very exciting things.
Then out of nowhere and actually very delayed is Untold, the new single from RY X. So this guy popped up like 5 years ago and I love him. He's in a bunch of side projects, so he has been making music, but not as RY X. And he's Australian, so I will probably be seeing him very soon! But yeah, now he's got a lovely new single out, the first from his new album, Unfurl, which will be out next year. So now you get to listen to it and sit in anticipation just like me!
