VERSE – 15/08/2010

August 15th, 2010 - 

A Polaroid picture. Red. Room. A circle. Two girls laugh. Rosey white smiles in the mirror. Muted. Darker in the shadows. Hands pass on the levity. Over. Under. Snap shot future memories. We meet briefly like hands on a clock.

VERSE – 14/08/2010

August 14th, 2010 - 

Early morning. A Question. Closely spoken. Murmured. Surprised not shocked. Heads tilted.  A form from another dimension came through the doorway…. dreaming.

VERSE – 13/08/2010

August 13th, 2010 - 

Am unbelievably comfortable, moving over something. Skin colored, or beige. Repetitive, but comfortable. Fitted. Face, Long, pale. Hands here. Gloves. Hands. Gloves perfect into the seams. They fit. Hands are in. Something lands on your cheek. Dots. Laughter.  Corridor, stairs… going upwards. Can’t move. Salon. Dockside, nightime. Neonsign, red, flickering. Prices high. Wages. Paid.

“Singer Wyclef Jean plans to run for president of earthquake-ravaged Haiti and will announce his candidacy in the coming days, a former parliament leader and the entertainer’s brother said Tuesday.

Former Chamber of Deputies leader Pierre Eric Jean-Jacques told The Associated Press the Haiti-born hip hop artist and former Fugees frontman will run as part of his coalition in the Nov. 28 election.

The Breakup – Part 2

Tonight I am at my mum’s house. I am here because my ex is having some guests over and I felt that I should clear out… no matter how broad minded people are, it’s no good having your ex at dinner when you are entertaining  female company. So i’ve cleared out for the night…

It is strange enough that we still live together now that we are broken up. I can only imagine what people are thinking, and saying to each other… not that I care what people think. So long as people know the truth I don’t care what they think. So here is the truth…

When we first started going out, the one thing I was looking for was this: YOU CAN READ THE REST OF THIS POST….

PLEASE PEOPLE, CARRY ON SMOKING.

July 15th, 2010 - 

In another link to this ’smokin’ chain of events, a friend known uncommonly as “Adi Aniren” posted this link to a story about how children are being used by cigarette manufacturers on her facebook wall.

Tobacco giant Philip Morris has been forced to admit that child workers as young as 10 have been subjected to long hours working on tobacco farms with which it has contracts in the Central Asian state of Kazakhstan.”

The link was pegged as “one more reason to stop smoking“. One MORE reason to stop. I suppose for the people who have already stopped smoking, it’s the sort of thing you read and while you are reading it, you might be overcome with a sense of “i dun the right thing then”!. Sure, it feels rather nice….

But i don’t smoke….. anymore.

This week, as with all other weeks my blog posts have been inspired by the things that are going on around me. By the things that other people, including myself are either getting into, or out of. These blog posts are usually inspired by a chain of online and offline events that trigger thoughts and ideas that i’d rather not bore people with…. so i blog about them. And yes, the insulting assumption is that people who have the time to read my blog, have nothing better to do anyway, and my mundane details and musings are of some value however insignificant.

Ill Poetic – Cincilluminati

July 14th, 2010 - 

I likes this a lots. It’s one of the few hip-hop tracks claimed worthy of ear-time that does not have that supremely annoying chipmunk voice sampling effect in the background. That is the single most over used sound of the last five years. It takes SO MUCH away from a track for me… It’s OLD, and it sounds like cheap plastic filler.

Cincilluminati has a vocal bit that could so easily have been replaced with that stupid chipmunk effect and i am very very very glad that ILL POETIC opted for something more organic sounding.

ADIDAS TO ADDIS

cut chemist - the sound of the policeNEW! CUTCHEMIST! LOVE! LOVE! LOVE! speaks for itself really….. and you can really jump around in your adidas to this if you feel sole  inclined. ”the dude is sick!” …. in my opinion DJ Shadow is slightly sicker but i love this new track. Can’t wait for the rest of the album to fall into my clutches. There were days in my life when all i listened to was Cutchemist, dj shadow, dj babu and jurassic5 and a few others…. the track is part of “The Sound of the Police”, an album that began as live performance and ended up being immortalised into a proper recording. Unreal anticipation. Check it out here….
