Favoriting Explorers Room with Flash Strap: Playlist from December 1, 2016 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.

ah, this is nice. i missed explorer's room on thursday nights, seeing as i was mostly missing it on thursdays with my house move and then the two week hiatus.

this is good.
Avatar 7:20pm

Thanks Hyde, I missed it too. I've been moving too, out to Bahama NC, and just getting all tangled up with the awful world of rural internet service. So yeah, man, it's good to be back at the Explorers Room mantrols. I need to do this, I'm just happy you guys will listen

Flash Strap:

High praise, LD. I'm in the much preferable situation of being all done when you go on... though I'm often sort of worn out and miss a lot of it... the great thing is that a couple of my best friends are huge fans of your show, so I always end up hearing whatever I missed when I'm at their house

Been getting into Cymande, finally... for some reason I've never really listened to most of their stuff, despite having had it all for years. It's, uh, rrreally good.

Hi, DL! How are you doing this fine night?

The whole Cymande self titled lp is great. And yet I've never heard the 2 after it. In part because I've never come across them.

Might be another, later Cymande cut coming up this set, JK

(it's pretty much all good, too, if you ever come across them)

Avatar 8:02pm
geezerette:

This just made me think of a Beat survivor of a Flamenco joint down some crumbling stairs below street level,near Silverlake in L.A;El Cid. The kind of time machine where they serve you Sangria and there are Bull Fight Posters on the walls. Used to be a ritual-of-passage in High School to go there and watch show. Funny. Still there I think.
