Jan. 30th, 2002 01:48 pmI'm going to school to get my schedule today. I hope they can find me classes, I'm afraid as to what will happen if they can't. Their administration are so bitchy, underpaid and understaffed like the rest of the universe.
Everybody pray for me, or something.

So I did some grocery shoppin' for Mom, of course on the way I stopped by The Beat Goes On to check for new electronic albums. Now, it's not often you find Underworld albums new let alone in a used store. There, before my saucer sized eyes, was the original Pearl's Girl EP for $8! I've seen the reissue on SALE for $24 and this is the orignal on Wax Trax!™ complete with the mailing list subscription card. Now, a big deal with small electronic labels is mailing lists. They're tons of fun and usually contain lotsa info that you can't get online plus a catalog. Sweet!
Also picked up Photek: Risc vs. Reward. Yeah, RISC like Reduced Instruction Set Computing. Contains the seminal D&B track "Ni-Ten-Ichi-Ryu".
So, it's not like I got a lot of music I don't already have, but it's the real deal to help fortify my collection.
Yay!

Jan. 30th, 2002 11:19 pmTin There has to be my most favorite underworld song ever. It's everything I like about "rave music". Not the fashion†, definitly not the drugs or the trainspotters. It's the pure polyrhythmic push that brings on the adrenaline and endorphine rush that you get from letting your body and your imagination fly.
Some people have a hard time surrendering to "the vibe", it can be tough as I know well as anyone how much self-consciousness gets in the way. It's rough being the biggest guy on the dance floor, but I've often been told I have good moves "For like a big dude." Which is completely flattering. Not like I'm ursus majorus or anything, but I'm mosdef not a rail twink. It's totally cliché to say that once you do surrender and let loose things "get totally like tribal man". But it's a human thing to do, I'm sure everyone rocks out in the shower. I know I do every morning, it's part of my ritual. I sing (rather poorly) through a few songs on Econoline Crush's "The Devil You Know" or Mathew Good Band "Beautiful Midnight". Pretty lame eh? I fucking love it!
† Pastel fun fur was never cool, although I admit to having a green fun fur dress shirt. I'm sorry. But I gotta admit, it is warm.
