the rich girls are weeping

"How miserable I sometimes feel as day after day passes and I don’t grow anywhere. Static. Too much static. Much too static. Half-awake. No one to spend time with. No one listening. (Clue: make something people want to listen to!)"

— Brian Eno, 25 August 1995

future generations remembered the unearthing of the 4-up Judy and Barbra animated gif. “some people kept trying to put animated gifs up after that” reports Professor Gumm of the University of Gif. “for a while really. but most people had to admit in the glaring all-healing light of Judy and Barbra that their own gif game was weak as hell”

Because I haven’t posted in eons. Hello!

I keep forgetting to apologize for my extended absence of late; after a stint of unemployment, I’ve been buried in the wonderfulness of my new position at the New York City Ballet. Be back soon!

"
While the two never discussed at length what Freddie should look like, it quickly became clear to Anderson that Phoenix was losing a significant amount of weight to play this alcoholic fresh from the war. Phoenix also maintained an awkward gait, where he pulled his pelvis back, sucked in his stomach and placed his hands on his waist — a walk Anderson loved but never questioned.

“It’s like when you are playing make-believe with your kids and you are so tempted to ask them what they are thinking or why they are doing something but the last thing you want to do is break the spell,” said Anderson, who realized in the editing room that Phoenix was perhaps holding onto his kidneys because they hurt from either a war injury or from all the booze. “You just sort of hope they will keep doing it and they won’t stop. Whatever he was doing, it felt so right and looked so good, the last thing I wanted to do was stop and break the spell of make-believe and ask questions of why.”

I’m sorry, Park Slope Patrick Stewart is ridiculously funny. The Co-op and Whole Foods jokes are hilairz, but this is the best one of them all, by far.

Douglas Greed – When A Man Sings on a Track

My favorite thing, today. A “Losing My Edge” for the EDM resurgence. Perfect.

“You’re one of those guys that’s spent so much time taking about music that you’ve actually forgotten how to feel music …"

David Mancuso Live @ The Loft, NYC

I feel like I may have posted about this before, because it was put on Soundcloud over a year ago, but it crossed my Facebook feed via Tim Sweeney today, and it bears rementioning. You can download the whole 7-hour mix on the Soundclound page as the preview above is only about 30 minutes long. The full track list is there, too.

Oh, and it opens with one of my favorite Andreas Vollenweider tracks, which pretty much cements the overall awesomeness.
