Ah yes, the warm prospect of a decent night out beckons in tandem with the first glimpses of the approaching Spring. Featuring a very impressive lineup consisting of both established industry names and up and coming jocks, The Rockabilly circus looks set to shatter the norms of the average carnival party, brimming as it does with unique appeal and a swashbuckling sense of eccentric adventurism. You wouldn't want to be anywhere else in Copenhagen on the 5th of March.

Lineup:

♥ Lulu Rouge(Dj-set)





♥ Kenton Slash Demon(Dj-set)




♥ Kúra(Live)

I don't see an American dream, I See an American nightmare !

I don't see an American dream, I see an American nightmare, which we're all subscribing to, the world over.

The modern day perception of Santa Claus was based on a marketing gimmick for a wholeheartedly capitalist cause. Global Coca-colonisation and deculturation via fast food cash cows like McDonald's and numerous other multinationals..these are the real weapons of mass destruction that republican America is looking for with such ardent zest.

Boycott consumerism !

Here is the story of how our conception of Santa Claus got colonized by capitalism, in the proud words of the Coca Cola company themselves.

The week that's been in music. Volume I

If music be the fruit of life....Play on. This is the first in a series of posts through which I intend to share some of the songs that I'm listening to with the world. The ten tracks of my week this week are:

1) Joy Orbinson. Hyph Mynho. Attutude-ridden, synth-kissed grime. Repetitive yet contemplative. The eclectic London-based wizard Joy Orbinson achieved underground eclat for this tune back in 2009.



2) Joy Orbinson. So Derobe. Another contemplative rhythm from Joy Orbinson. Disctintcly dub, sounds like Burial with a healthy sprinkling of sheer uumph!





3) Pretty Lights. Finally Moving. Sentimental, violin-graced simplicity, ideal for brezzy Sunday's on the sofa.


4) Misc Mix: Cymantic Freuqencies. An audio visual mix by DK. A journey into sound, down the avenues of dub and grime.


5) Damian Marley. Welcome to Jamrock (Dubstep remix): Raunchy dubstep patterns juxtaposed exquistely alongside Damian Marley's timless tune, Welcome to Jamrock


6) Chase & Status. No problem. A tune with a wicked African vocal; not the best beat pattern though but still out there amongst the unique and the rare


7) Katie Melua. I Cried for you. Beautiful, serene, loving. The endearing voice of Katie Melua, delicately poised and soft spoken. This is for the broken hearted, "Beauty need only be a whisper"


8) Alex Font. Angola. A tribal anthem that one would expect to hear in the sweaty basements of a cool club with a hefty sound system. Sexual, mysterious and engaging.




9) Mzungu Kichaa "Jitolee" A passionate track from the ground-breaking Danish musician, Søren Espesen. This is a tribute to Tanzania, to Africa and to multiculturalism.


10) Mice Parade. Old Hat. Sounds like a charango in the background. Sentimental, alternative, hopeful... elevating; much like the delicate dance of the winter's transcendence to spring.




Urban Language: Signs that speak




Don't touch. The entrapment of restriction


Art or vandalism ? Wage war on materialism and consumerism not on art and graffiti. The urban canvas will prevail.


Reading between the letters and beyond the unsaid.


Language is a discourse, and every existent object, inanimate or otherwise communicates through such a discourse. Pictures and signs speak volumes but say nothing as such.

Beyond the impassioned stillness




Beyond the impassioned stillness of the crystalline night

Wandering, wavering, woolly. Vindicated from this sight

Lies but the mystique of the veritable. Tainted in enigmatic silence

Shrouded in a polychotomy of the real. Pained in incandescence

Beyond the sullen symptomatic surreal, the juncture of the obscene

Vilified, vaulted, verdant. Syndicated from the serene

Lies but the beauty of the known. Engulfed In displaced serenity

Imbued by the dainty elegance of the inane. Moulded in heterogeneity

Beyond the junction of the mundane serendipity of the whole

Endeared, endangered, exposed. Implicated in the conjured soul

Lies but the sanity of the enacted. Trapped in implacable cadence

Clothed in the syntax of the established. Beyond the set silence

Amk.
