here for the latest Spotify playlist. There's a theme of the
foreign, and how it never turns out to be as foreign as you might
want it to be. (Or something like that anyway.)

“And
we are rotting like a fruit
Underneath
a rusting roof
We
dream our dreams
And
sing our songs
Of
the fecundity
Of
life and love
Of
life and love”
It's
a strangely double-edged feeling, finding a song you're after doesn't
exist on Spotify. Frustration at the consumer inconvenience, mixed
with relief that not everything in the world's been Google Mapped
yet, and Tom Cruise is still running around out there somewhere wearing someone
else's eyeballs. I originally planned to include this track by Thee Silver Mount Zion, plus a different
Blyth Power number which seems to still be entirely off the grid.
Run! Hide!
Coming
soon! Yeah, I know. I promised visual art posts...
