Favoriting Explorers Room with Flash Strap: Playlist from February 22, 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.

i've read some pretty funny, very negative comments he made about a Sun Ra cut during one of those blindfold tests, but I won't hold that against him... I think he makes some dismissive remarks in his autobiography as well, less forgivable if so... but Miles' opinion on other musicians is to be taken with a bucket of salt, if at all. a true hater, like Orson Welles

like Orson Welles is a god to me but when i read something where he says Modern Times is a mediocre film by a small man or whatever i just laugh it off. he's probably just being outrageous to create diversion while avoiding a hotel bill anyway. doesn't make Touch of Evil one iota less perfect

someone posted the fact in relation to his death, that damo suzuki was born 50 km or so from nagasaki, and that his father died relatively young from cancer, but the fact resonates in other ways such as in his perfomance style which was i'd say somewhat evangelical and revelatory

& I think if you hear Asian Singing for even a minute - the context Yoko is coming out of becomes a lot more obvious too. It's just every kind of ignorance. & also that she took a Beatle's focus away from TheBeatles. & to some extent tried to keep it there - as most any married person might do.
