I'm disturbed by the love affair people have with institutionalized violence. We inadvertently endorse and legitimize war by saying nothing. Maybe it is because we would rather subdue ourselves with meaningless television shows and those neurotics social networking 'about me' quizzes than challenge the norms by which geopolitical power is executed worldwide, both economically and militaristically. What world did Enlightenment principles bestow us with?

Is it cool to favourite collabs you're involved in?
Anyway, glu did all the heavy lifting here. It's like Santa Claus visited last night and left the best presents at my house!

and you didn't even have to spend the night to get it.
another one from the morning sessions...
thanks for the comments Glibert! This one was thirty minutes from figuring out the guitar lick to bouncing the tracks. I'm most happy with this brainstorm out of all of these because it just came out when I began recording... more naturally than the others.
A morning storm recorded in the courtyard and a musical motif written in the evening. combined time working-- 45 minutes, interrupted by a phone call from the parents to see if I was still alive.
This is a song about cynicism and propaganda.
Bombing Yugoslavia in 1999 has been justified by NATO and the mass media as a "humanitarian effort" to stop repression of the Albanians in Kosovo.
Written for/about Ben Montgomery. Answering machine messages wondering where he might be are from yours truly and Jason Biehler, his two closest friends who were always trying to track him down.
I agree with Einstein that we cannot 'will' anything, the concept is religious at best(gulp). But you can change your paradigm,
I am certain Einstein's paradigm changed with his theory of relativity, no? The song was intended for avid fans of political change re-examine their own role in the democratic process, you cannot vote for change in this system, just as you cannot 'will' change...
but you can change the way you see the world.
Sounds are 100% birds, bats, and squirrels.
Even that upstairs neighbor bangin' kick-
it's actually a bird call that I ran through a filter, pitched down and thrown into the
animal drum kit.
okay, I'm sold-- I am going to buy some chips!
I love the singing from the gut! "Uuughhii love chips!" Bubble bath is damn fine too! Going to take a bath with some chips...
This is a super strange track, love the rhythms,
strange son samples, and the pace of the changes. haha this track cracks me up too! The samples are so playful! awesome.

Wow- is this the reason for the latest avatar?
Very cool dig the voices
woah, hey jef..you there too, eh?
strangely mirrors my current emotional landscape.
This reminds me of The Gathering at their most mellow, albeit a little more electronicky.
This is haunting. I think you blend the music, voice, and percussion together perfectly.
Dreamy :)
Should have know who this was before I walked in here from the shop. This is most excellent!

I like this. Short and sweet.

Great collaboration! Very spacious
Turning Coffee into a song, great! I love coffee and this song. I'm glad it's not just a recording of you making the stuff. :)
Bethan's right. Great track.

great capture of the storm and appropriate muse for the occasion.
lush and beautiful! 30 min to upload? Fantastic!
this is sweet! i'd like to see it as a soundtrack to a video. by the way, i love your photography/photoshop/whatever!
Glad you found this one!
Comments made by glu
nice tune. good use of repetition and layering; it works very nicely.
nice song, calming, yet reminds me of how illegitimate violence can be considered legitimate when deployed by NATO et al.
"i'm not really paranoid..." hahaha! great tune!

yeah this is my favorite track of yours... I love it.
