Twisted Shuffle/Pro Clubbin' Records/Cue Digital/Fobia Records/A2B Publishing

Sourcing inspiration from love and a hit of acid, Danger Daz's music features organically grown claps, free range kick drums, gluten free bass lines, and ethically sourced high hats, combined with artificially sweetened melodies to curate a special cacophony of bells and whistles representative of music. He writes most of his stuff in his tiny studio, and friend's dank basements. When not in the studio, you'll find him halfway up a mountain gathering inspiration for another track. Sometimes he DJ's... Preferring to play music that will induce his audience to indulge in carnal pleasures. He's a big fan of music that makes you want to throw your fist up in the air... Or up anywhere really. When Danger's on tour he chooses to hitch hike and crashes in tents or on your mums' couches. Find his collection of works on Pro Clubbin' Records, Fobia Records, and Twisted Shuffle. Email Danger to check if he's available to remix your bitching track.

Aldous Huxley is most famous for his dystopic novel Brave New World, but his final novel, Island, presents a more utopian vision of the future, in which attention pays a central role. Indeed, perhaps the defining quality of the island Huxley imagined was the mindfulness of its inhabitants.

The writer Borges once described Utopia as a Greek word, which means there is no such place and Huxleys utopian vision honours that idea. The island, Pala, struggles to guard its beauty, simplicity and integrity from incursions from the world outside, and though I dont want to give away the ending, it was Utopian in the Borgesian sense.

My abiding memory of Pala is the role played by the mynahs on the island, birds that are known for their capacity to imitate. The following two extracts are separated by several pages, but serve to show the role of reminder birds on the island, as seen through the eyes of a cynical journalist, Will Farnaby:

[Attention, a voice began to call, and it was as though an oboe had suddenly become articulate. Attention, it repeated in the same high, nasal monotone. Attention ()

Is that your bird? Will asked.

She shook her head.

Mynahs are like the electric light, she said. They dont belong to anybody.

Why does he say those things?

Because somebody taught him, she answered patiently

But why did they teach him those things? Why Attention? Why Here and now?

Well  She searched for the right words in which to explain the self-evident to this strange imbecile. Thats what you always forget, isnt it? I mean, you forget to pay attention to whats happening. And thats the same as not being here and now.

And the mynahs fly about reminding you—is that it?

She nodded. That, of course, was it. There was a silence.]

The book is warmly recommended, but the key question for now is how we can create reminder birds of our own. The Mynaah project was created by Darby Wilson to evoke mindfulness and act as a musical reminder bird. When you listen to this album, make sure you give it your full attention and be in the here and now.
