For Jonathan Meléndez · 3d ago

Heard Camilo Séptimo for the first time driving through Oaxaca in 2019. Those synth lines just opened something up in me. Honas made music that felt like light. Rest well, friend.

For Dave Marsh · 19d ago

Saw him speak about the Hall of Fame nominating process at a panel in San Francisco in the early 2000s. Sharp as they come. You knew he'd fought hard for the artists he believed in. He had that Detroit edge, that refusal to let mediocrity slide.

For Chris Cornell

Saw him in Seattle in '91. Changed my life. Still can't believe he's gone.

For Roberta Flack

Her songs carried me through my twenties. They'll carry me the rest of my life.

For Sir Michael Gambon

Saw him live at the National in the 80s. Pure electricity on stage.

For Iván Carvajal

From San Gabriel to Quito to the world. He brought Ecuador's soul into the light.

For Yin Carrizo

For Nuno Cardoso

The Porto that welcomed the whole of Europe in 2001 was his work.

For Ilfinesh Qannoo

For Barry Cleavin

His work made me think differently about what art could say. A real loss.

For Jean-François Leroy

For Fabio Mussi

A man who stayed true to what he believed in, even when the easy path was somewhere else. That takes real character.

For Yves Brunier

Thank you for showing us that monsters could be our friends.

For Sliman Mansour
