Favoriting Explorers Room with Flash Strap: Playlist from January 18, 2024 Favoriting

Flash Strap's avatar View Flash Strap's profile Favoriting

This is where all of culture and all of time are collapsed into one seductive portal and viewed through the panoramic lens of the exotic. Come and embark on an armchair-travel virtual-voyage to the heart of timeless darkness and beyond; embrace the numinous monolith of the exotic immensity. Let us find that place where hybridization meets its destiny as pure fantasy. Let us become observers observing those others who are ourselves. You wear your mask and I'll wear mine.

during that first section i believe Surman was also handling piano/keyboard - possibly he had programmed a synth and was also switching to sax w/out even touching the synth again for the most part, but really i have no idea

August Pablo live at a tiny club near Santa Monica was quite an experience. Loudest bass I've ever heard, perhaps. (When Sly & Robbie played in the venue behind my house a few years ago, I heard Robbie loud and clear in my front room.) The bass at the AP show cut through a cloud of ganja smoke.

The U.S., Belgium, the CIA, they were all involved in capturing Lumumba. They flew him to the Belgian stronghold in Katanga, tortured him, shot him, chopped him to pieces, dissolved his body in acid, ground his bones to dust so no trace could ever be found, except for one tooth that was held as a souvenir by one of the Belgian assassins. And in fact, that tooth was just returned by Belgium to Lumumba’s descendants last year.
