i'll eat it all, one of each, thank you and lots of wasabi

i'm not going to pretend like i can approach jungle with the same sensibility to the properties that you have spend 40 years attuning would be like going to tokyo and critiquing high end sushi restaurants

i'm curious now though so i'll stick my toes in in different waters before this current venture i had only listened to Timeless and Black Secret Technology as far as albums go thought those were both great

like at some point, the drums become a given, so you start to treat them as a given musically, let them flow out into streams, background them

I read a piece by Reynolds earlier where he said with ambient jungle the drums began to bypass the body, thought that was interesting. maybe the genre couldn't sustain its density in a way

you have to be focused to listen to jungle, keep the drums in check, otherwise they'll swarm you and pick at you from all directions the literature is a bit compromised since I have to ignore all that 'sound of the future' talk

bought a huge squid that i have to find a way to cook for tonight caught in british waters it was

not saying it's shit just that i'm hoping it builds towards some grand theory of the mind or the nature of society or something, not this archipelago of quirky events and curious webs of thought

"there's a strange mood to the modern world" when in history was the world less strange? there's just way more information to be processed and less time

it means that he's got this habit of interpreting things where strangeness or absurdity is always the residual odor of some dark force brooding beneath the surface of society instead of just absurdity or strangeness because things generally don't have an order or logic to them. and it can make...

The image of the future comes served in blue skies with light clouds, streams of sunlight visible through sublte mist drifting through perfect yet temperate green trees. Within these mathematically rendered sketches of line and color there's a melancholy flatness. Is it accidental? Is it...

I have been going through the archives of jungle not really not anything in advance except the odd sentence lodged in my brain from half skimmed dissensus chatter and so far I have concluded that one of the real geniuses is DJ Dextrous.

Khabib is the good guy in UFC isn't he??

I saw the first episode last night and thought it was great. I liked how he kept going "but out of that revolution an even newer revolution was born and would sweep through the nation" so you get this diegesis of a matryoshka doll dialectic which is of course a bit comical but I don't suppose...

I liked this when it came on in Lost Highway. Like a ridiculously post-modern-ironic Funhouse

well in reality we all know that Tago Mago is the best guitar album, I was just trying to mix it up a bit

I went to a Sunn O gig that was one of the most tactile sonic experiences I've had. You're standing there in a room where you can literally see the air vibrating from oscillations of dust particles under the guitar drones. Then one more layer is added, and the air changes. And another and...

remember one called cultural cowardice

when I was 15 I bought and mpc and started sampling obscure soul because I wanted my hip hop beats I wanted them to sound like real instruments. for me it was this track my mate made which had 800 views and is really bad. thought i had gone mad

I remember going through down a rabbit hole of afro-peruvian compilations a while back, thinking that the dramaturgic reflex of these musicians is just way way more sophisticated that anything i'd ever heard before. Not something I would look for in music normally but it was fun to listen to and...
