Volcano Choir - "Island, IS" I'm going to be one of those old men who can't remember anything. I just know it. I already have some trouble. It's bound to get worse. It's that some moments just don't find a foothold in memory, they never tether to another - so they drift out, away from me. The first hummingbird of summer (and mom in grassy shorts, watching expectantly) is still here, slower than I've ever seen it, and each feather, each bounce of light and shadow, each small gesture large enough to see, they're still here.

(image via ffffound ) Summer is almost at an end, for most university students in and around New York City. For some of us, classes begin on the last day of August, an abrupt end to a summer that was, weather-wise, too short. This is an invitation for YOU to come CELEBRATE the END OF SUMMER with US! We will be on the roof of 100 S. 4th Street (The Rocket Factory) in Brooklyn, NY beginning at 4:00 PM. So come and bring an [...]
Saint Seneca Improper post. Real write-ups later. I'm beat, it's been a whirlwind week. But before I sleep, before you do anything else, listen to some Saint Seneca. I was fortunate enough to see these folks two nights back-to-back last week, and they were heart-warming and foot-stomping, audible "Wow"z and all, smiles everywhere. And honestly, that's what I want to see all the time. (They're also very nice, funny people. We went out to a diner and they had me covering my mouth way too much.) Also: [...]

Its been a while since any one of us posted. (Moving into a new apartment and just having internet installed after 3 weeks of bureaucratic miscommunication had something to do with it, but admittedly, it was mostly laziness) So: Its time to start fresh. This is the summer of music. In the vain of Grizzly Bear's Blog and El Guincho's Blog , two personal favorites, we involved here at the WSHE are going to start posting our own music on the site in addition to our writings and other creative musings. [...]
Grace runs up to me (this is the part of the story I don't see) and I jump a little bit in my chair when she touches me. Part of me wants to jump, hop, skip and run, most of me wants to lie down and fall asleep because I'm sick, drinking bottle after bottle after bottle of water, pilling every twelve hours and not sleeping too well at night. But Grace runs up to me and I jump a little bit in my chair when she touches me. The part after that, most of it doesn't matter, doesn't [...]

the-Dream - "Mr. Yeah" The pop/RnB producer of the decade, the-Dream has produced Rihanna, Usher, Beyonce, etc. His last album is tight- entitled Love (me all summer) Hate (me all winter). This one is also tight and just at stylized and conceptually solid- entitled Love vs. Money. Something about him is too quirky. He controls the radio. And if it sounds like everything else on the radio, thats because he's written it. Its like dancing in a club at the bottom of a corn syrup sea. All [...]

This is one of my favorite songs ever. "This is the Place" performed by David Byrne on Jools Holland in 2004.
