as she was stuffing that pathetic travel cushion in and barely closing the backpack he was getting more and more worked up with rage. why can't we just go? what the heck got into you? dead, blocked, her throat too knotted in, incapable of any reply.

no, actually she remembers a heavy dark moist word like lead climbing inside her body, from the bile up. she couldn't stop it by clenching her teeth, so the word managed to come out clearly: SOULLESS.

next second, shoes were flying out the door and onto the staircase, bags as if by magic already outside the apartment. angry face uttering loud slow-motioned words and pointing.

alright, damn, way to go! bags a bit too heavy, the light outside a bit too bright.
that initial moment of pure bafflement. now what? crossing the bridge into the city, a wet small piece of paper read: WE ARE THE ENGINEERS OF OUR OWN PERCEPTION

old BLU project in berlin, but the music!

by now probably everyone has seen this little film of BLU contributing to the walls of berlin.
what i can't shake out of my head (and i think i shouldn't) is the amazing song on the background. it's the berliner dj-cum-painter siriusmo , a shy appearance in the local electronic music scene, originally a punk musician, when punk still had a word to spread out. there's no label behind him, but he collaborates with 'der jungs' from modeselektor(moderat) . i never saw any of his works, but he calls painting his job, while music just a hobby with no artistic pretension. it's gets better when he starts lining up the unexpected names of camille or phoenix on which he'd like to remix. on top of that he has a rather kewl one of marlene dietrich's "ich bin von kopf bis fuss auf liebe eingestellt". techno meets romantic, oder? ok, if you're not inlove yet, i should tell you that the man makes music for his bike.his socio-phobia stops him from using public transport so he always rides his bike or walks. he gets ideas on his bike. i'll try getting ideas while listening to his truff on my bike for now on. check out "mein neues fahrrad" and disregard the writing on the screen. i fuck (pardon my French!) on the sound of nature, not on electro :D

oh, the info is fresh from a magazine article that i read last night while not working on my school stuff. today i decided by hazard to download the music from the BLU video forgetting it was siriusmo once again!
