Rooting erotic garbage

Image: Eboy
I would an eye in a Bengal light. Eternity in a sky-rocket. Constellations in an ocean. Whose rivers run no fresher than a trickle of saliva.These are suspect places.

I must live in my lantern. Trimming subliminal flicker. Virginal to the bellows of experience. Colored glass.

- Mina Loy, Lunar Baedecker.

Playlist starts on a chilled note with old-school dnb (not for purists, though) and then continues with some ocassional electro textures, fuzzy guitars and more pan-global rhythms than you can throw a stick at. I believe the shift between song styles on this one sounds pretty natural and effortless but my head’s been full of erotic garbage lately and I only slept 4 hours last nite.
Also, this might be the third or fourth time I post an excerpt from Lunar Baedecker on the motel, revealing Mina Loy as my favorite north american poet and Lunar Baedecker as my favorite book of hers. I cannot recommend you enough to give it a read. Perhaps one day when summer arrives.

    Awesome. I’m really liking this list, this vibe. Yeah, the shift is totally natural. I’m pulling around 5 hour nights too… Thanks for the music!

    Well, the songs are not so refined and powerfull like the other post “caleidoscopio cromatico” (really great), but Moka’s playlists are always the most fresh and joyfull it could possible be to have from the whole WWW!!!

    I’m really loving this young girl…

    Here you are an excerpt from Henry Miller:
    “the night grows like an electronic plant, and throws white-hot gemstones into the space made of black velvet”

    Thank you all :)

    To be honest this might just be a temporary lapse as I’ve been posting many electronica/pop in the past month and maybe the next one I might end up posting nothing but psych-folk or turkish surf rock, but who knows… while I do confess a weakness for electronica in all of its variations, I really don’t like comparing nor dividing between music genres and I still think many people get too serious about their own musical taste.
    That said, I do plan to continue on posting minimal techno tunes similar to those of “caleidoscopio cromatico” every now and then… probably a new one next week if I find a few more songs that I like as much as the ones I have in mind for the moment.In the meanwhile Audiversity posted another good song from the upcoming sascha funke album if you’re interested:

The song makes its imprint
in the air, making itself felt,
a felt world. Here, there,
the stunned silence

of knowing I will not remember
what I heard;

futures that will never happen,
a fluidity we cannot achieve
except as a child
creating possibility.

This is the untranslatable song
hidden in the earth.
