eektrope

picasaweb took the liberty of google-translating a writing under one of my hosted photos, and it went gloriously like.. exactly like "...hangout on the beach near the port - and many do not swim ekeipera - and to wash and saw two horses there (fraction mints .. because the horse was a little fright and went back and forth - with the difficulty of controlling them kavalarides)..."

didn't that sound curiously funnily clumsily poetic? perhaps i won't have to spend time writing senseless stuff for these here posts and employ google-translator on random text..




anyway, the main thing (that should make sense) that i wanted to say is that i discovered another feature article line in pitchfork.com, called "guest lists":



- where they call some of their favourite (and hot) artists, one per week, or so, and ask them a dozen questions, about their favorite modern music at the moment, the book they liked most lately etc. etc. - and actually it's a good good source of gathering and poking at curious stuff - i mean.. maybe it's all a part of the trendsetting.. for example many artists there like say that their fav band lately are these and these, who are actually good mates of ours.. but anyway.. why not?

artists..
anyway.

so one of the first things i stumbled upon (apart from the fact that Zola Jesus (should i say that the name feels campy as hell :P) adores reading Philip K. Dick) is that one of OMD members (McClu..something - sorry i forget [such] a name) talked and talked about his preference of Robyn.. (me, i adore Robyn's "Cobrastyle", its gorgeous hipness (and hip-hopness, r'n'b-style rap etc.) and specifically Bloody Beetroots' remix which is much more dirty, punchy and dark - it actually blows up my mind!!!!)

so here's today's back 2 back thing. could never be more proper, although maybe musically two clips don't quite fit into each other (mostly due to the fact that putting this particular Kate's song near something else is like breaking some sacrament - it's really much more complex and deep then Robyn's take on "mine/not mine"), but i personally find many influences of Kate in Robyn's style anyway.


whatever.
