james K - Life Of A Fly [INC-016]

After 2022’s In Every Dream Home a Heartache, Romance and Dean Hurley return with River of Dreams; continuing their prismatic dissection of the daytime soap genre with an examination into the dark corners of fantasy-based escapism. 

Over the last 60+ years, serialized melodramas have played a critical role in shaping the way we think about, consume, and are affected by media. The daytime televised soap opera has without a doubt laid the fundamental architecture for contemporary dopamine capitalists’ dreams of harvested, monetized attention…and River of Dreams explores the psychological effects on the mind of its viewers. Whereas In Every Dream Home a Heartache spotlighted the external omnipresence of daytime tv’s persistent broadcasts, River of Dreams examines the interior havoc and mental unbalance sewn by obsessive viewership. The same waters that harvest and transport our buoyant dreams often funnel into nightmarish, tumultuous oceans… 

Once again, broadcast television samples by way of vintage, bit-crunched YouTube codecs form the source material here…all artfully inlaid and mosaicked to form tear-stained compositions of troubled romance gone astray.

Buy!

LOVE IS LIKE A RIVER

my love is an extension of you (with exael)

My mom ran away from her abusive household at 14, spending the next 6 years living and working in co-ops in Seattle, and then on Haight St. in San Francisco. Next was LA, where the classic rock and soul she was raised on partially made way for synth punk and hardcore street life. Although her naturally raucous hair was difficult to spike, she quickly found herself emblazoned with all other types of radical leftist insignia. This was directly before my inception, and the purple hair and piercings were very much present at my birth - and are still present today depending on which mood you catch her in. Having me did change her sonic output though, switching from the relentless screaming and harsh synth lines to what we have here - relatively softly-told stories about the very hard existence she leads. 
	I can’t listen to these songs without crying, which made me think maybe they are too personal to put up, but ultimately that’s selfish. These songs were sung to me my whole childhood, and the messages in them stuck. In a time of increased authoritarianism, poverty, and general hardship, calls to destroy government buildings, give the drugs away, and treat everyone with dignity are more important than ever. Anyway, hope you all enjoy some beautiful tracks by one of the toughest and kindest extraterrestrials to ever crash land on this rock. Love you mom.
