Untrue, what is true.

Burial is really fucking good. Untrue is a great album, especially late at night. I bought this record in Japan after having an urge to listen to it. So home hasn't changed much, but I am finding it's nice to be in one place for a change. The trip to AZ was a bit of a disaster but at least the show turned out great (American Airlines is terrible -remember never to fly with them again). There is a lot of work to do, but it's hard being motivated with so much free time surrounding me and all of the distractions. I picked up the new M83 record which promised to be more focused and developed than their previous releases, but it's still not what I would have preferred. That's the first record I bought since being home - still loving the new Crystal Castles/Beach House/Destroyer, etc. I decided not to go to Coachella this weekend so I will be around and going to The Stickup show in Toronto. Bummed on missing Kraftwerk, but apparently Florian Schneider isn't even on the tour. Picked up the Minimum Maximum DVD... mind-blowing.  I've been making a lot of techno these days (even more than before).  Today I picked up the Kaossilator and it's rocking my world.  One day I will post some of the noise I have been making, for now it stays in my headphones.

Boom. It all begins with some simple text.


This is when we split the atom.  The 'web' has been graced with some new bytes pertaining to the inner-thoughts and ramblings of my mind.  I'm pretty sure I have avoided a formal blog at every chance up until now.  Not quite sure what is so different about today.  Life is certainly taking a few sharp turns.  I probably have more to say now than ever before.  Regardless, the new Destroyer album is fantastic.   There hasn't been too much incredible music this year with exception of - Vampire Weekend, Beach House and Black Mountain.   I've been fortunate enough to catch some life-altering shows: Hayden (live in Toronto at Danforth Music Hall), Wilco (live in New Orleans at Tipitinas).  I think I need to compile a list of the best shows I've ever attended because it's becoming harder to remember all of the different ones.  Off to Seattle in a few hours, Portland today and they really do have the best Vegetarian food in the world.  When will I write again, who knows?  What the hell am I going to do next.  End transmission.
