Edition 16 Feb THE LINN-BENTON COMMUNITY COLLEGE VOL. 51 EDITION 16 FEB. 26, 2020 SPRING IN THEIR STEP Coach Peterson and His New Squad Carry Last Season’s Success into Opening Weekend INSIDE THIS STORY AND PHOTOS BY CAM HANSON EDITION It was a bright and beautiful weekend at Dick McClain Field, where WOMEN IN TRADES the Roadrunners had no issue taking care of the new competition. Second year Head Coach Andy Peterson made sure to let his men know that their field was their home, and to defend it, and they did. LBCC started the weekend off with a double header against the Yakima Valley College Yaks, where they started slow each contest but used a solid five runs to secure the wins. Yakima finished last season 30-19 with a 19-9 record in division, so the competition is nothing JJ Hoover winds up for a practice swing. In top photo, assistant Coach Mike to scoff at.

On March 3 that all changed. Vampire Weekend—a band once famous for a mixed aesthetic of Ivy- League prep, Ralph Lauren logos and pastel ox- fords—released their much-anticipated fourth album on Friday dubbed “Father of the Bride.” While remaining true to form in many ways, we find the band trading in their worn-down boat shoes for top-shelf birkies with the release of their most recent and most prolific album. They had the formula down, though. Sprinkle some jangly, highlife-inspired guitar work over the bounce and sway of djembes, throw in some baroque backing and top it off with some deeply digital production work from band member Rostam Batmanglij and you’ve got yourself a hit. So why the change? To answer that question, let’s go back to 2006.

  • Charli XCX Was Determined to Follow up That Success by Making a Classic Pop Album
    ISSUE #38 MMUSICMAG.COM episode of HBO’s Girls. From there, her career took off—her “Fancy” collaboration with Azalea spent seven weeks at No. 1 on the Billboard Hot 100 last summer. For her second studio album, Sucker, Charli XCX was determined to follow up that success by making a classic pop album. She co-wrote every song, with influences ranging from 1960s yé-yé singers such as Brigitte Bardot to ’80s new Joseph Llanes wave and punk by the likes of the Ramones to ’90s power pop à la Weezer. In fact, she collaborated with Weezer frontman Rivers Cuomo. “I went to his house in Santa Monica, and we wrote two songs together in one afternoon in his back garden,” she says. “One, ‘Hanging Around,’ made the cut. You can definitely hear his touch in it.” She also wrote with Rostam Batmanglij Corey Britz, Robin Goodridge, Chris Traynor, Gavin Rossdale of Vampire Weekend. “I took him to this old, empty hotel in the-middle-of-nowhere Sweden to write and record—and drink Champagne. I organized a writing camp with some friends, and we were the only ones there. He’s a very different songwriter from me. He likes to take his time and Bella Howard work slowly and double-check everything, whereas I usually blaze through not thinking about anything. He taught me patience.” While Charli XCX also worked with CHARLI XCX other high-profile male songwriters and producers—including Greg Kurstin and The red-hot songwriter channels a variety Benny Blanco—the record underscores her of influences on her latest own feelings about female empowerment.
