The midsized outflux of all manners of weirdos I useta spend my days with and the general pain of not having a centralized home CD stereo line has driven me out to do things in public like I would generally avoid. Though I haven’t yet tried public urination to the same extent that some of the aforementioned weirdos tended to partake. Nah, I’ve been trying to attend “cultural” events and shit. Like concerts or Jim Trainor film series or personal appreciation exercises of the Boss Burger at Nick’s Cafe. Word on the street is that Wolf Eyes goon Nate Young is gonna be showing some films while playing contact mic’d woodblocks or somethin’ the selfsame nite that Andrew W.K. is bringing his guru show to the Union. I’m deeply crossing fingers that this could lead to hijinks and inevitably to moi talkin’ some good natured shit about the lower peninsula to these tape fiend trolls. Worthy events continue to roll out in this town; very disappointing to a dude who just finally managed to replace the halogen bulb on his reading lamp in time for the late year bleakness.

Which reminds: thanx also to Glass Candy for gracing the High Noon in the opening slot for those prison colonist ADD churls. It was a pleasure “observing” you in your mighty attempt to move the twee toddler masses to some form of action other than their moschops lumber.

I suppose you were thinking that maybe this place was dead. I guess now would be as good as any time to letcha know that I plan to maneuvering my updates here to be more aligned with personal diaretics and mentionings of musicks and other interests that are perhaps more on the obscure sides. Might as well admit that I’ve somewhat sold out “the scene” and I have been/will continue to offer up semipro squeegee filth on more “available” sides or matters as a contribuwhore at Shiv/Shill/Shine. E.g. a post on New Age tapes and how they’ve helped me achieve enfrightenment would be placed here, whereas a post on something like my everexpanding appreciation of Mark Hollis would likely work it’s way out over there, much to Hasting’s chagrin I am sure. Is it already outta print? I’ll rub it in yr face here. Available on Amazon? There. I’ll probably talk about Burial’s Untrue at both places, ‘cause it is the Alpha and the Omega of 2007 and beyond.

And fine, if you want some kinda insight into my current general mindset via statistical analysis, here’s a sampling of my current most played albums on my work computer, unordered just to piss you off:

Daniele Baldelli – Cosmic: The Original
Pauline Oliveros – Accordion and Voice
Isengrind – Golestan
MV & EE – Mars Delta
Grey Daturas/Monarch – Dawn of the Catalyst
Twinsistermoon – Levels and CrossingsAndrew Chalk – Blue Eyes of the March (still haven’t heard pt 2, dammit)

hey i just thought i'd pass along that i'm going to be reissuing the bulk of NSB & their related solo projects on digitalis starting early next year. twinsistermoon's "levels & crossings" will be first, followed by NSB's "the dance of the moon & the sun," isengrind's "golestan," and then later in 2008, TSM's "stars glide..." and of course while the original packaging will be impossible to duplicate in these mass-produced versions, we've got some pretty awesome stuff planned nonetheless. more info HERE.

sorry for spamming.. love the blog, though.
best,
brad
