ANYWAY

since I would like to talk about or project anything other than completely unproductive anger

what would you LIKE me to talk about, or would you like me to post some artwork?

holy fuck

this is the best track on the album but it's unusually good right now

@porsupah writing down artist in case I don't get to him before passing out. Thank you for the recommendation!

oh sunshine
your loving beauty passed me by
should I waste my time
in your valley beneath the sky
aaaaaaa
aaaaaaa
aaaaaaa
I am home!
you move your own mountain
the trees have grown
the trees have grown

now it's over
now it's over and I'm goin' home
aaaaaaa
aaaaaaa
aaaaaaa
I am home!

oh honey you know that you can (and will) lick my doo
oh honey you know that you can (and will) lick my big fat doo
aright

wow this next Queens of the Stone Age track I tried out is either the blandest variety of heterosexual relationship whining *or* it's about having a major dissociative episode connected to child emotional abuse

I can't tell which. Time for something lighter like Stravinsky

okay pause on Stravinsky so I can listen to Queens of the Stone Age "If I Had A Tail"

HOLY SHIT THE BASS oh wow why didn't I notice this little flourish

especially cause we're almost at the best bits of Rite of Spring

The Best Bits of Rite of Spring:

* stands digitigrade, tucks arms in against chest with two fingers out on each hand, stomps around as much as possible after hours

look I wouldn't be wobbly if I had a tail!

damnit it's too late in the evening to do stompy dances to Sacre du Printemps while stoned, while wearing nothing but a fursuit head (look it seemed appropriate for Rite of Spring)

I don't want to be rude to my neighbors

@ziphi so you remember the other day I said I'd really like to hear Cantata Profana while stoned?

So, I bet you can't guess what I'm doing now. I'm struck by how it reminds me of Rite of Spring *and* Carmina Burana - and time wise it's literally between the two. Some of atonal stuff but then chorus also reminds me of Genioh Yamashirogumi but I'd noticed that while sober.

we have just folded space from Ix
many machines on Ix
new machines
much better than the ones on Richesse
you are transparent to us

- a whale with bad acne living in a bong, probably

@frost This isn't kink, or furry even but music (Bartok's Cantata Profana). My Dad is REALLY inconsistent about stuff he likes or dislikes and I'm never quite sure of the logic. Like... you'd expect a pianist into Ellington, Fats Waller and Count Basie would LOVE Monk right? Hell no. He's the guy who got me into Schostakovich, but *never* the more abstract stuff. You'd think someone who introduced me to The Endless Summer and a lot of fast paced instrumentals would love surf guitar? Nope.

@ziphi I zipped off to Wikipedia as soon as you mentioned it (and I'd put it on) because I wanted to know the context. I actually like how the story comes that close to the real tragedy that would happen in a lot of folklore but goes "naw, he doesn't shoot 'em, they just wind up staying stags is all."

@ziphi I'd actually never heard of it nor listened to it before now, and I really love it so far, the complexity of all this lack of harmony layering together to build something a lot more harmonious. I have no clue how he did this and I kinda want to listen to it while stoned out of my gourd at some point. Also I can see how it'd be a logical segue from Carmina Burana.

@ziphi the ultimate irony is of course that you don't get people inside and outside your country to think it's a great place with only sanctioned official content; it's the Lu Xuns, Dmitri Schostakoviches and Keith Harings of the world that get people thinking wow, yeah, China/Germany/Russia/etc are pretty cool. "I don't understand this, but eh, someone out there likes it, and I gotta trust it to peter out on its own if it's no good" is sort of the ultimate expression of democracy.
