It's Raining

A Breath Of Fresh

Floating on a plush cream pad, slinking through layers of atmosphere. Rising, hang gliding over crests of ice flakes. Light beams break through crust to a heated magma core. Like oreo filling, but oceans of it. Sun spots hover overhead, circling like clandestine vultures. Wind chimes in a mountain tunnel tickle one another. Radio waves skip phrases mid-length as tides shift. Rainsticks stacked to make a raft. Continental drifting…

Mountains - Choral

Koen Holtkamp - Bear Bell

Tim Hecker - Borderlands

HEATERS

A couple bangerangs to move backsides to. That slap you across the face with raw meat slab, speaker-humper's delight type style.

This Zomby track demands looping. Massive destruction. Don't get too vexed with the odd closing vocal blip. Booyaka!

Zomby - Need Ur Lovin'

Chateau Flight takes a nice detour toward the more rugged of terrains. Brings to mind the spiraling menace of Troy Pierce. Watch the wobble wobble.

Chateau Flight - La Roquette

Also, I got a new slot on KXLU. Do tune in Tuesday mornings from 6-10 pst. You can stream it live here.

Computers crash, uploads fade, and moods swing.
