Interview with San Marcos City Councilman Maxfield Baker ktsw899
By: Andrea Moor Music Journalist 29-year-old Laredoan Carlos Ramirez, otherwise known as Auragraph, is a creative that’s made wide strides in their respective fields. Initially playing guitar in most of the bands they worked with in their adolescence, their encounters with music would change drastically when they moved up north for their undergrad. Having studied at UT Austin for film, Ramirez had nothing but pleasantries to claim about their time […]
By Andrea Moor Music Journalist T-Pain and Kanye West come to mind when it comes to recognizing the giants and pioneers in Auto-Tune. This software that corrects pitch and timing errors, and manipulates a vocal recording until it is in tune, regardless of whether or not the initial recording was in tune. Not to be confused with the first pitch-altering vocal effect, the talkbox-Autotune was oddly born out […]
By Andrea Moor Music Journalist Navigating the dozens of buildings intermixed with the thousands of students routinely on campus since the semester has started, I’ve been left wondering, “Just what exactly does the staff that makes up this vast and beautiful institute listen to?” For this, I went around campus, ready to inquire more beyond the standard casual greetings. Working at the LBJ Student Center, I caught up with Trinity, […]
By Andrea Moor Music Journalist Anyone who knows me knows my fondness for the twin-composed band based in Orange County, California, known as The Garden. With several side projects under their belt, Wyatt and Fletcher Shears are most notably known for their collaboration on this band. When the musical duo set out to tour again this year for their latest release, Horseshit on Route 66, I knew I had to […]
By Andrea Moor Music Journalist The 2001 acclaimed French film, “Amélie,” portrays the story of a lonesome young woman who searches for comfort and happiness in life. Despite the film’s instances of nearly sadistic realism, the story is depicted in a youthful manner due to Yann Tiersen’s playful soundtrack, the film’s vibrant oversaturation, and the recurring symbolism. The plot develops as Amélie, the heroine of the tale, finds a buried […]
By Andrea Moor Music Journalist Since moving out to San Marcos, I’ve quickly become acclimated to the ever-growing beauty and significance this town holds. With the vast diversity of the student populous to the established families with generations living in this town, I decided to go around asking people about their favorite musicians, hoping to see if there was any correlation or mass breakthrough in music taste. First, I […]
Andrea Moor Music Journalist In all honesty, North Carolina rapper TiaCorine has yet to receive their flowers. Despite having nearly a quarter of a million monthly Spotify listeners and being most known for their 2018 TikTok sensation track “Lotto”, the pick-up of their career has yet to be in full effect. Dubbing themselves an “anime trap” rapper, the 29-year-old’s flow is like no other. “FreakyT” effortlessly oozes androgyny from hitting […]
Andrea Moor Music Journalist In an attempt to showcase lesser-known artists, I curated a playlist of work released earlier this month by artists who currently have fewer than 50,000 monthly Spotify listeners. This playlist is roughly 2.5 hours long and features over 20 artists with 50 songs. There’s no set genre with this selection; however, it primarily pertains to fun mixes. I’d deem the stars of this set to be […]
By Andrea Moor Music Journalist Over the years, I’ve enjoyed listening to Alabama rapper Tamia Monique Carter, otherwise known as Flo Milli. To say that she possesses star-worthy talent is an understatement. Her influence has been evident since her early SoundCloud days. Thanks to TikTok, the 22-year-old has been able to consistently draw attention to her releases for the last couple of years. It’s been pleasing to witness her develop […]
