My Actifit Report Card: December 15 2018 - DecayFM, Number One for Shoegaze and DreamPop!

13K on another rainy Autumn day. 🌧

I didn't get to walk outside today but I did move around my house, moved around to my music, and did some weight lifting with my dumbbells. My activity number of 13 K is about average for me. 👍

I've known about the internet radio station DKFM for a while now. I first heard it at a nightclub in Second Life. How many of you have been to Second Life?

if you look it up in Wikipedia, you'll find that the first shoegaze song was Only Shallow by My Bloody Valentine from 1988. shoegaze is named that because the band members usually just looked down while they played on stage. The music is made up of synthesizers and guitars, and the guitars are very heavily processed. The music is swirly, has a lot of reverb and seems a little disconcerting at times. Some of it is fast and has a good beat but some of it is slow and dreamy, and that makes another genre called Dreampop.

Here are a few videos:

Only Shallow by My Bloody Valentine, Shoegaze 80s

De Luxe by Lush, Shoegaze 90s

Dreams End Here (Remix) · Grabbel and The Final Cut, Shoegaze from right now

Memory Clinic - That's the Way (He Was Raised), Shoegaze Dreampop, from 2013

I'm tweeting some songs out too! This is dreampop punk from Hungary!

I hope you're all having a great weekend. I'm cooking dinner now even though it's almost midnight. It's salmon with rice and lemon and garlic! ❤👍❤
