"The world of ambient noise is one that can easily become monotonous and redundant. Expectations of these “spaced out” arrangements are usually met due to the listener’s understanding of the genre. There is, however, comfort in knowing what is coming from these musical experiences; but it is lovely when an artist throws you through a loop and knocks you out of your comfort zone. This is exactly what Lcoma & The Next Commuter drop into your lap on their new release ‘Low Serotonin’. Naturally progressing from their last release with Already Dead (2012’s ‘Waiting to be Spoken To’), the group takes you to a land where gravity holds no bearing, and time is only a myth. Unlike many ambient noise based albums ‘Low Serotonin’ plays more like an organic feeling than a movie score. It is music to implode to; slowly winding its way around and through movement after movement into a victorious conclusion."

Der dritte Sonntag: Gaudete! – Freut Euch!
Der dritte Sonntag im Advent unterscheidet sich schon farblich von den anderen. Statt Violett kann der Priester an diesem Tag die liturgische Farbe Rosa als aufgehelltes Violett tragen. Einige Menschen haben an ihrem Adventskranz auch für den 3. Advent eine rosa Kerze. Dieser Brauch ist vor allem in Irland und England beliebt. Vielen ist dieser Sonntag auch unter dem Namen "Gaudete" (lateinisch "Freut Euch!") bekannt. Das kommt aus dem Eingangsgesang, der es in sich hat: "Gaudete in Domino semper!" – " Freut euch im Herrn allezeit!" Dieser Vers aus dem Philipperbrief sagt: Der Herr ist nahe, es dauert nicht mehr lange. Der Imperativ verstärkt die Intention.

Am vergangenen zweiten Sonntag im Advent ging es umdie harsche Umkehrpredigt des Johannes. Heute erfahren die Gläubigen, wie Jesus über ihn denkt. Im Evangelium nach Matthäus (Mt 1t, 2-11) geht es an diesem Tag noch einmal um Johannes den Täufer, der die Menschen auf die Ankunft des Messias vorbereiten soll. Meist wird es so verstanden, dass Johannes im Gefängnis Zweifel ander Messianität Jesu kommen. Entspricht Jesus nicht seinen Erwartungen, ist er ihm zu zurückhaltend? Möglich ist aber auch die um-gekehrte Sicht: Johannes hört vom Auftreten Jesu und fragt sich, ob er vielleicht „der Kommende“ ist.

The third Sunday: Gaudete! - Rejoice!
The third Sunday in Advent differs from the others in terms of color. Instead of violet, the priest can wear the liturgical color pink as a brightened violet on this day. Some people also have a pink candle on their Advent wreath for the third Sunday of Advent. This custom is particularly popular in Ireland and England. Many people also know this Sunday by the name "Gaudete" (Latin for "Rejoice!"). This comes from the opening hymn, which has it all: "Gaudete in Domino semper!" - " Rejoice in the Lord always!" This verse from Philippians says: The Lord is near, it won't be long now. The imperative reinforces the intention.

Last second Sunday in Advent was about John's harsh sermon on repentance. Today, believers learn what Jesus thinks about him. On this day, the Gospel according to Matthew (Mt 1t, 2-11) is once again about John the Baptist, who is supposed to prepare people for the arrival of the Messiah. It is usually understood that John has doubts about the Messiahship of Jesus while in prison. Does Jesus not meet his expectations, is he too reserved? However, the opposite view is also possible: John hears about Jesus' appearance and wonders whether he is perhaps "the coming one".
