Check out Sucker by Kaptan. It goes, “I’m just a sucker for a happy ending”. This takes on a whole new meaning now. Don’t we want a happy ending? You’ll like the track if you’re a sucker (no pun intended) for up beat indie pop and chill wave. Kaptan is an indie pop act based in Nashville and we just added the track to KOAR’s Indie Invaders. The song also landed on Spotify’s Good Vibes and Young & Free.

The Weeknd, Dua Lipa, and Gaga putting out 80s inspired albums may have resulted with the resurgence of the sound. I hear more tracks right now that have that particular 80s sound – the Yamaha DX7 synth patch that became hugely popular in the 80s and 90s for its electric piano and synth sounds. I have a warm spot for the 80’s and maybe that’s why I like the track Electric by Daniel Saint Black. The singer-songwriter is from New Mexico and worked with Johnny Simmen, a Nashville based producer and writer. His goal as an artist? “To make the world a better place, one conversation and song at a time.” Give it a stream on KOAR’s: Indie Invaders Playlist.

I gave David Ost a shoutout in April with the track Some Of Your Songs which I really liked a lot. I’m not the biggest indie folk fan but David Ost can turn me into one because his tracks speak. They say something. Now the singer-songwriter just dropped another great track called The Deep End. Bouncing back and forth between Germany and Scotland, he now resides in Hamburg. Give it a stream.

Sorry folks, the Chinese owned app TikTok will cease to exist at any moment in the US. India as well as other nations have banned what officials call a Chinese Spying Software app.

TikTok is like Huawei and ZTE, two Chinese companies that have been designated as threats to US national security.
The US has looked at forcing TikTok’s Chinese owner to divest it. It’s been said Microsoft could potentially acquiring TikTok’s US operations. I think that deal is off the table.
We hear Facebook’s Mark Zuckerberg is dancing in the streets now.

While the ruling class are working over time to get celebs and influencers to promote mask wearing, they probably gave up on Posty. Anyway, how much are they paying Jennifer Aniston, Chrissy Teigen, and Reese Witherspoon for the wear your mask posts? What’s next? Eat your daily serving of broccoli?

Although Post believes we should wear a mask, as do I, he thinks that people shouldn’t be forced to wear masks.

He was against government mandates when it comes to masks. Fines have been issued in Beverly Hills, West Hollywood, and Santa Monica.
“$300. Because maybe someone sees you eating and you don’t have a mask on. And then you’re stuck with a fucking ticket. It blows my mind,”.

“It’s like me in school having to fucking tuck in my shirt or else you get detention or whatever. It’s weird to be forced to wear something,” says Post.
“At the end of the day, it all comes down to respect for other people. It’s not a government thing. You shouldn’t be forced to wear a mask — but you should. And that’s because I respect you as a fellow human.”
I don’t know, but I love this guy. I always did. Post is the best artist to come out in a decade. He’s authentic, he has an amazing voice, a unique writing ability, and his live performance is unstoppable.
