Santiago Velazquez (@Santi_E14) rounds out our 4th season with "Gimix" by The Avalanches paired with a beachy and sunny Kanaha pale ale from Kona Brewing. A big theme for us this year was nostalgia and the sample-heavy "Gimix" layers music from the 1960s through the 1990s, including a surprising mix of Madonna's "Holiday" with Bob Dylan's "Like a Rolling Stone." It is a fun adventure through 40 years of top 40 hits while sipping on an uncomplicated yet refreshing pale ale.

There's been some talk in recent years about the misogyny present in Emo music from the early Aughts.
