Britt and Manda Brown just won’t stop. Thankfully. Because the way Not Not Fun has built their label’s discography through their linage is borderline obsession. To me, that is to say/write. And not really as a “follow-up,” nor was it admitted by Britt — who hit me with this video yesterday — but она знает больше чем думает reminds me of the 2009 compilation, My Estrogeneration. (G’damn, call me misogynist for thinking so?)
Although она знает больше чем думает (translation: “she knows more than thinking”) is just a sampler video for the upcoming Not Not Fun compilation, it contains snippets of every track, centered around Russian and Ukrainian electronic, solo female musicians. It’s an interesting time in both countries, and obviously, those who strive for escape most are the artists. What better to scour the bullet and bomb torn regions for lost and hidden musings by females within? Well, better would be if Not Not Fun put it on tape, or vinyl, I’m not sure which, but either way, you KNOW they will.
So, I didn’t receive a list of musicians. The YouTube video doesn’t contain anything about them either. Yet, I’m 100% OK with not knowing what I’m getting into. As I mentioned in the beginning, Not Not Fun is my obsession. Let’s go for it!
