Hurdy-gurdy
Today I learned wtf a "Hurdy Gurdy" is.
— Del Walker (@TheCartelDel) April 24, 2023
I know Middle Age instruments demand godlike craftwork but this thing is ridiculous levels of complex. I thought I didn't like folk music, until I heard the bass drop on this Hurdy Gurdy track.pic.twitter.com/BkP63yIKJN
Speaking of Renaissance, a moment of appreciation for the hurdy-gurdy.

what better way to celebrate #EarthDay than hanging out in a swamp 🐛🌎#gamedev | #screenshotsaturday | #indiegames pic.twitter.com/cvraz5pbOF

I can be a caterpillar in a swamp? Well, looks like there's another game that's getting added to my must-play list.
Music time
All the time, every time. I have a few cool tracks to share this week starting with Lightning Over Mexico from Tom Morello, The Bloody Beetroots, and Ana Tijoux.
Boomerang
Interesting track, just sort of stumbled across it, I like the overall vibes of it.
Medication
Another one I just sort of stumbled across, and another one where the vibes are absolutely immaculate.
