1. EMA - Past Life Martyred Saints (Souterrain Transmissions) Listen: Anteroom Martyrs are not victims. There is no self-pity or cool detachment to their pain. Past Life Martyred Saints is an intimate but uncomfortable album, it will make you feel guilty for the hearts you've torn apart and it will make you feel weak for all the times you've been hurt and felt victimized for it. 2. Colin Stetson - New History Warfare Vol. 2: Judges [...]
Henri Rousseau never went to the Jungle. He spent all his days in Paris and surrounds, meticulously painting images of nature that were anything but 'natural'. He copied his designs from botanical gardens, zoo pamphlets, and children's books, depicting animals that would never be seen in the same environment. Once he even painted a hand of bananas growing upside down. His paintings are naive, flat and disjointed. This playlist is a musical equivalent to Rousseau paintings - "Jungle" music made by westerners. Electronic emulation of african sounds, drum machines instead of djembé. Starts off mellow before moving into more disjointed territory. [...]
There are many blossoms of great beauty - many indeed. But they cannot compare with the beauty of the blossoms of blossom town, for these bossoms also have human feelings. - Sharebon.

"The word arse is as much god as the word face. It must be so, otherwise you cut off your god at the waist." List of songs about or related to body parts.

It's been a while, hasn't it? Today's list is nostalgic, and includes a track by John Fahey (who I initially discovered on this very website). It's slightly warped playlist to listen to on a sunday drive. Just like the pumpkins in the photo, it's earthy and organic, but in a slightly bent and malformed way. Folky, country, electronic and exotic. A few of these original pressings fetch a mighty dollar online, so enjoy the rips. 1. John Sangster - Sunrise (Australia And All That Jazz Vol.1) [...]

We arrived at the roller rink well after dark. I paid my $7 to the cashier, who took the money and scurried off to find me a pair of skates. A large concrete rink was surrounded by floor to ceiling blue carpet, and the tile work was almost an optical illusion. Presumably, nothing had been modified since the early 1980s when the rink opened - including the signage, which warned pay-phone users to keep calls under 3 minutes. Regrettably, the music didn't fit the decor - so this my playlist for a slightly creepy 802s roller rink. 'Roller [...]
She had liked the young man's looks, and his short-sighted eyes, and his odd way of speaking, that was abrupt yet soft, just as his hands were sun-burnt and sinewy, yet with smooth nails like a woman's. His hair was sunburnt-looking too, or rather the colour of bracken after frost; his eyes grey, with the appealing look of the shortsighted, his smile shy yet confident, as if he knew lots of things she had never dreamed of, and yet wouldn't for the world have had her feel his superiority. But she did feel it, and liked the feeling; for it [...]

Maybe the best proof that the language is patriarchal is that it oversimplifies feeling.
