A viking ship appears on the horizon, a likeness of Alice Coltrane carved into its bow. Rare birds flock together to sing Francoise Hardy as soul hits. A sunset of blips and bleeps fills the air.

July 6, 2023: "It takes less cognitive effort to make sense of the world using preconceived images updated with a small amount of new sensory information than to constantly form entirely new perceptions from scratch." Merlin Sheldrake, 'Entangled Life'

Great opener.
Those ringing bells are so therapeutic. Were at the Int’l African Arts Festival in Bklyn last weekend. At the children’s area a Mama Patrice was leading the kids in all sorts of percussion instruments and healing stuff. One was a large metal bowl that she hit with a padded mallet, in which kids would stand and get the vibrations. Got to get in myself and loved it.
Never thought I Ltd be the parent yelling to my kids to “turn it down.” Especially when it’s mostly The Beatles, the initial pathway to a lifelong deep passion for music. Alas, here we are…
Hot as hell again. Not into it. Could use a Trouble rant on the obligatory societal pressures of always having to be doing something “fun” when the summer comes.
This weather gets me in an HST vein, in which all I want to do is drink tall, cold cans of beer just to deal. For now though it’s the usual chicory espresso coffee and a smoothie. Later it’ll be a series of hitting various city parks in which to continually douse my head to stay cool. Good thing we have an excellent big sprinkler park in Astoria Park. Stay cool!

Anyway, I'd like to see "straight out of the bat" enter the lexicon - via baseball announcing maybe
Zinn The Mood:
It’s still faintly reflexive, even in me all these years later. That one is always expected to be on one’s way to the beach, or vacationing somewhere in the country (class pressure), kids must be in some kind of camp, we all must be barbecuing all the time - and then multiply that unspoken societal pressure on the holidays.
This is where advertising is the most pernicious poison; even things like TimeOut magazine (which I stopped looking at a couple of decades ago) exist both for bourgeois braggarts who seal their status by attending all the coolest events endorsed by the hipster tastemakers, but also, I think, in a deceptive way it can have the opposite effect on those who don’t have the means to make them feel like they’re constantly missing out.
I’ve learned to become more zen about it. Tie up a hammock, grab a few books, and just be in the moment.
Yes, as Trouble just said, there’s an interdependence that we often are blissfully unaware of (but deep down do understand) that has to be continually buried by the capitalists who run the show. Or else we’d all question this system that breeds selfishness, cutthroat opportunism and he-man Individualism.

Convergence of factors: hot/humid; smoky; lots of "hot air" coming from reactionaries spouting "liberty" when they really mean tyranny; removing our hard-fought-for rights. Maybe?
But maybe she just means CD Player 1.

This French dude is a legit studio Wizard !
Works under various names (Emile Sornin & Arun Tazieff) … all innovative and worthy. I first heard via WFMU DJ Pedro Fumero’s show. Surprised this artist has been around awhile without prior discovery.
Thanks for your 📻 audio temperament.

Will just say briefly that when I worked in an office in the 90’s everybody was all aflutter about the last episode of Cheers or one of those shows. To which I admitted to someone that is never seen in at all (maybe a few seconds), and didn’t care at all about it.
Definitely felt apart from the pack, but only in superficial ways.
Of course to me it was a badge of honor.
There was also the big huddling around the tv for the OJ trial. Which I saw not even one second of.
Nope.

There are days when I'm all "Why is everyone talking about the same thing?" And then I realize it was probably a Twitter-based gush-up and lose interest. (That said, keep attacking boats, orcas. I'm rooting for you.)

That’s a job I’d *definitely* not want. Whenever I’d find myself at a golf course over the years for a music or driving job I’d love bringing a Magnum Sharpie with which to scrawl some anti-capitalist graffiti in discreet places. I encourage everyone to consider doing the same!

So cringe to hear that stuff all the time. I have no qualms at all saying to all and sundry that I’m not that (or at all) interested. Everybody who’s got a big tv on every night obediently watching the latest Hollywood drivel while they lay in bed is now a movie critic. Too cringe for me.

I loathe the surveillance state and the Spyphone. Though admittedly I do have one, I do all I can (which is never enough) to insulate myself. No Google
I respect you for that move (how did you stay so active here, though?). Friends we have are seriously considering giving up theirs for “old” phones for only calls and texts.
