Best Electronic Music 2022

On May 10, 1996, three officers of the Indo-Tibetan Border Police, Tsewang Samanla, Dorje Morup, and Tsewang Paljor, were part of a six-man expedition to reach the summit of Mount Everest.  Delayed and facing a storm, the three decided to disregard orders and press on while the rest of the team turned back.  Around 18:00 the climbers radioed their expedition leader back at base camp to inform that they had reached the summit.  While credited with summiting, whether they actually reached the summit or not is to this date debated.

These two songs wouldn’t exist if not for the irony surrounding the perishment of one of the climbers, Tsewang Paljor.  The irony is that Paljor became famous not in life but in death and simply because of the fact that his lifeless, frozen body, which no person or entity cared to remove from the side of the trail for at least 19 years, ended up becoming a landmark and reference point to climbers, his humanity reduced to an almost comical nickname stemming from the mountaineering boots on his feet and their bright yellowish-green color.  A Google search today of the keywords “Tsewang” and “Paljor” brings up, as the first result, a Wikipedia article entitled not “Tsewang Paljor”, but “Green Boots”.

“Jefe de condestables Tsewang Paljor, parte 1: Ascenso y muerte” is my reflection on Paljor’s resolve to climb, then the climb itself, then the summiting (or the thinking they had summited), and finally the descent and the exhaustion, confusion, and acceptance of defeat that probably came with it and the probable realization of impending death that frozen night as he lay curled up on his side, donning his brightly-colored mountaineering apparel, under a crevasse at the side of the climbers’ trail at 28,000 feet.

“Jefe de condestables Tsewang Paljor, parte 2: Fiesta en Leh” is an imagination of a summer day that Tsewang could have enjoyed as a young adult in his hometown’s capital, Leh, with friends and perhaps one or two love interests at hand.  An experience he might have remembered about during those few final minutes of his life.  

About the song names:  That isn’t me trying to be the most righteous of the lot.  Like, “look, I even include his military rank before his name, while everyone else just calls him ‘Green Boots’.”  I’m not trying to be judgmental or pretentious.  In fact, up until the last few minutes the songs were going to be called “Helado en altura 1” and “Helado en altura 2”.  “Helado en altura” translates roughly to “Ice cream at high altitude”, and is a pun because in Spanish “Helado” can also mean a frozen person, animal or thing.  So, for the cover artwork, I literally searched for frozen corpses in snow-capped mountains.  Not necessarily with those keywords.  And happened on Green Boots.  It was like the third result.  But ultimately, I felt it would be in bad taste to be so literal and use the pic and do the pun and all that.  In a way, the song titles are an atonement for my previous intentions.  And a pair of songs to honor a man who found very little dignity in death.  Some may point out the old adage that there “is no dignity in death”.  I’d say as so much else in life, that it’s a matter of degree.

Thanks for taking the time to read, and above all listen.  I hope you “get” the songs, and above all, enjoy them.  (No pun intended with “above”.)

Note:  from the information I had access to on the World Wide Web, Paljor’s body has not been officially identified or removed to this day.  However, it was last reported seen in 2015.  Its current location and state is, to the best of my web knowledge, unknown.

Rockers Dope. Lyrics to original song, in swedish. Title of song translated would be: The sweaty face of Torgny. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uv1cd7s68xE
Artist: Eddie Meduza - Torgnys svettiga ansikte:

Du har en konstig smak som jag aldrig någonsin hittills sett
Du är den enda som älskar karlar som doftar mysk och svett
Själv har du monopol på vår dusch
Men om jag tvättar mig blir det usch
Jag har nu mera antagit doften av gammalt härsket fett

Så när vi gick på party i lördags stod saken ganska klar
För alla gäster höll sig för näsan snart fanns det ingen kvar
Och jag förstod att min kroppsodör
Gjort mig till din favorit charmör
Men plötsligt fick jag se nåt som nästan fick mig smälla av

Jag såg Torgnys svettiga ansikte
Och jag förstod att nu var det klippt
Jag såg Torgnys svettiga ansikte
Än mera fasansfullt än mitt

Det fanns ju bara vi tre kvar dom andra dom hade flytt
Jag såg Torgnys svettiga ansikte
Om jag ej varit härdad hade så hade jag spytt

Han såg Torgnys svettiga ansikte
Om han ej hade varit härdag så hade han spytt

Svartsjukt så såg jag hur han böjd upp dig stinkande som ett as
När du gav mig en likgiltig blick gick min stora dröm i kras
Jag såg på Torgny och kunde se att jag numera var helt passé
Mot en sån stinkande hög som han så var mina chanser knas

Jag såg på Torgnys hemska kostym så full utav ingrodd lort
Och jag förstod av din lystna blick att du hade fallit fort
När ni försvann sammanslingrade
Stod jag med stenblick och väntade
När ni kom ut ur värdparets sovrum syntes det vad ni gjort

Jag såg Torgnys svettiga ansikte
Och jag förstod att nu var det slut
Jag såg Torgnys svettiga ansikte
Och kände stanken hit från hans trut

Ditt sneda flin förrådde att just nu gick till högan sky
Jag såg Torgnys svettiga ansikte och det var nästan så jag kunde spy

Han såg Torgnys svettiga ansikte
Och det var nästan så han kunde spy

Jag såg Torgnys svettiga ansikte
Nu var jag spolad, kickad och kass
Jag såg Torgnys svettiga ansikte
Och kände han stank som ett utedass

Varje gång jag försöker att bada då är det klippt igen
Jag ser Torgnys svettiga ansikte
Och jag går omkring lika stinkande än

Han ser Torgnys svettiga anskikte
Och han går omkring lika stinkande än

Jag ser Torgnys svettiga ansikte
Torgnys svettiga ansikte
Torgnys svettiga ansikte
Torgnys svettiga ansikte
Torgnys svettiga ansikte
Torgnys svettiga ansikte
Torrrgnys svettiga ansikte
Torrrgnys svettiga ansikte
Jag ser Torgnys svettiga ansikte
Torgnys svettiga ansikte
Torgnys svettiga ansikte ...

Hailing from Essex, QUBIKS’s sound is a kaleidoscopic post-house clash of loops and glitchy percussive beats, overlaid with lush synths and subtle melodies. QUBIK first started creating electronic music in the late nineties with collaborations with Matt O’Brien and Alien. Solo tracks followed with several vinyl releases via Off Key Records.

Polly likes it dark and dirty.

Just me, drones and a filthy beat, if I can be bothered to add one.
