Stage design for Stravinsky’s Le Sacre du printemps by Nicholas Roerich, 1913
The message I’m getting from everything I ever find out about the Rite of Spring is “that Fantasia adaptation was very accurate.”
The Harlem Playgirls was an African American swing band active in the Midwest and throughout the United States from the mid-1930s to the early 1940s.

I can’t find any tracks by them but here’s a live track from an integrated successor band, the International Sweethearts of Rhythm (containing a lot of the same members, especially Vi Burnside the sax soloist).
In his interview with Dave Davies, retired MLB catcher Mike Piazza talks about being inaccurately outed as gay, which — fun fact — Belle & Sebastian reference in their song “Piazza, New York Catcher” (above):

About the saddest book you ever read, it always makes you cry
The statue’s crying too and well he may
The Willie Mays pun has always been my favorite part of this perfect song.

That fucking drop is so good. It’s like some strange fusion of dubstep and chiptunes, and not the shit kind of dubstep that’s just shit noise. This shit has structure, makes sense. Actually sounds good. Well, it does to me at least. I wish more stuff like this existed, or that more people liked it.
woah shit this is awesome
possibly years after i liked it, i finally combed through my likes for this post, downloaded its song, and reblogged it

If I could see the garden place
Before the fall, would things have changed?
I wasn’t there, and neither were you
But I take the blame, as you should too, my friend.
She closed the door with the intention of not looking back
But missed her step because she didn’t have a steady track
She can’t be bothered by the mistakes she’s made
But she’s forgetting that’s what guides you to the rightful path
