WRMC’s 2015 in Review

YEAR END WRAP UP Amidst all the shit that went down in the tumultuous year that was 2015, at least there was great music.

Ear Candy: A Semester of Sweet Tunes

The downside to college is that there no rummaging around your candy bag in post Halloween sugar cravings. You may think that sneaking a couple pieces from the kids you babysit for is going to suffice, but at the end of the day you didn’t get the candy yourself and it just doesn’t taste the… Read More

Me and My Mother, Fiona Apple and Kanye West

Growing up, I was embarrassed to share the things I liked with my mom. She was always asking to look at my half-finished paintings or to read the little scraps of essays that I wrote for class. Every time I would protest. I’d blush and get flustered, grabbing pages from her hand, snapping the sketchbook… Read More

SEPOMANA SPOTLIGHT: Ratking

In folklore, a rat king occurs when dozens of rats, squirming and wriggling around in compact, dirty places become tangled and knotted together by their tails, creating a writhing mass, even freakier than than the sum of its parts. Just as one can imagine New York City subways being a prime location for a knot… Read More
