And a happy birthday to you, sir.
I’ll sling some bits from the forthcoming Gunahae album as well as my forthcoming dubstep 12″ to you soon…

Whoops, a bit late. Still, hope you had a good day.

Happy late late birthday! I’ve been reading / lurking for a while, thanks for all the excellent posts.
Didn’t notice muddy books until now, nice — I’m glad to see that Samuel R. Delaney is already on there
If you need any more Delaney suggestions, my favorites are Dhalgren (long and experimental but worth it!) and Babel-17 (comes with another great short story, Empire Star).
Also worth checking out is The Process by Brion Gysin

A hallucinatory novel about an American professor’s weed-fueled journey across the Sahara and back….

Happy Birthday!
Some book picks:
Valerie Wilmer, “As Serious As Your Life”
Geoffrey O’Brien, “The Phantom Empire”
Michael Kirby, “Happenings”
Jack Womack, “Going Going Gone”

Addendum:
Some of the more unique things that I’ve stumbled across on YouTube are mbussiere’s mixes of found footage and “contemporary” classical music (Webern, Cage, Bero, et al.).
*******************************************
Also, I don’t know if you are interested in the Velvet Underground aside from the occasional sample/quote, but there are two interesting publications on them, a recent one by Richard Witts, former leader of post-punk group The Passage, and one from 1997, edited by Albin Zak. Both of them feature some musicological discussion of the group’s music.

happy belated birthday jace - hope all is well!
today i randomly pulled out my old MD player and popped in your ‘kingston hinge’ shuffle - been a long time since i played that.
as far as your birthday goes, book recomendations make me nervous but i am always happy to send music your way if there is some hole i can fill for you. recently i have been dipping my toe into 70’s salsa, 60’s ska and some no wave. jazz and hiphop are always constants and a new neighbor has been providing me with all things metal. and of course, thanks to negrophonic, i still have an ear tilted toward the dirt and the mudd.
bestest,
john (colton)
