      ***** So what if he does? You wanna watch? It's okay with If you do. Judging from your homophobia, I'm willing to bet you're a closet case. It's 2016, embrace who you are. It's funny how you can still find ignorant little homophobes all the way over here in the hipster section of kexp. I've dealt with punks like you IRL, so type away. You actually turning me on.

      Ron Smith​ Hahaha. That was well said. I know how it feels to deal with homophobes as well. But hey. We are who we are. :-). *****​​ It is ok to be different. Don't be affraid of it. I just can't stand people who use the word faggot for everything. Open up your heart to others and their way of living. We are all humans. It will make your life much better. Trust me.

We would agree most of the time with the choice of music that we think is good and we're very happy that we have this kind of relationship. Your music is absolutely gonna be in our music players!

    Finding this band on KEXP had been one of the most beautiful things for me this week. Iceland has some really incredible performers that are highly underrated. I was recently bummed about Kiasmos taking a break (another amazing Icelandic band that KEXP loves) and Vök has really been helping me to transition into something new. I’m a musician myself (primarily flute/tenor sax but I do some guitar too) and I can’t tell you how refreshing it is to hear the saxophone as an integral part of this band. Her vocals are so beautiful and haunting, it almost reminds me of Sade in some distant yet close way. And don’t even get me started on those smooth hip movements of the bassist, ha, ha. The drummer does a fantastic job at being gentle in a strong way, really, the entire band is just incredibly moving. I recently watched their other performance that KEXP featured in 2013/2014 and I highly recommend others to watch it, as you will see how this performance right here has been so fined tuned. They have truly evolved into their own and the confidence that they display in this performance is so different than how they were in the earlier performance of 2013/2014. It’s really amazing to see how they have matured as musicians. Great job!
