Keep calm

Inside my house; some place I keep dreaming about

In the mid-1970s, a force of nature swept across the continental United States, cutting across all strata of race and class, rooting in our minds, our homes, our culture. It wasn’t The Exorcist, Goodbye Yellow Brick Road, or even bell-bottoms, but instead a book called The Secret Life of Plants. The work of occultist/former OSS agent Peter Tompkins and former CIA agent/dowsing enthusiast Christopher Bird, the books shot up the bestseller charts and spread like kudzu across the landscape, becoming a phenomenon. Seemingly overnight, the indoor plant business was in full bloom and photosynthetic eukaryotes of every genus were hanging off walls, lording over bookshelves, and basking on sunny window ledges. The science behind Secret Life was specious: plants can hear our prayers, they’re lie detectors, they’re telepathic, able to predict natural disasters and receive signals from distant galaxies. But that didn’t stop millions from buying and nurturing their new plants.

Perhaps the craziest claim of the book was that plants also dug music. And whether you purchased a snake plant, asparagus fern, peace lily, or what have you from Mother Earth on Melrose Avenue in Los Angeles (or bought a Simmons mattress from Sears), you also took home Plantasia, an album recorded especially for them. Subtitled “warm earth music for plants…and the people that love them,” it was full of bucolic, charming, stoner-friendly, decidedly unscientific tunes enacted on the new-fangled device called the Moog. Plants date back from the dawn of time, but apparently they loved the Moog, never mind that the synthesizer had been on the market for just a few years. Most of all, the plants loved the ditties made by composer Mort Garson.

Few characters in early electronic music can be both fearless pioneers and cheesy trend-chasers, but Garson embraced both extremes, and has been unheralded as a result. When one writer rhetorically asked: “How was Garson’s music so ubiquitous while the man remained so under the radar?” the answer was simple. Well before Brian Eno did it, Garson was making discreet music, both the man and his music as inconspicuous as a Chlorophytum comosum. Julliard-educated and active as a session player in the post-war era, Garson wrote lounge hits, scored plush arrangements for Doris Day, and garlanded weeping countrypolitan strings around Glen Campbell’s “By the Time I Get to Phoenix.” He could render the Beatles and Simon & Garfunkel alike into easy listening and also dreamed up his own ditties. “An idear” as Garson himself would drawl it out. “I live with it, I walk it, I sing it.”

…¡ah! El odre ajado suda ahora. Uranio osificado unido al glaciar izquierdo que atina… y la eñe que coge todas las uvas y el yuyo oteado del jueves erótico que ágil imita… va a nadar beodo la odisea hacia la hostil fabula cultural que aplica para su oficio.

El lazo del teuton Ca(by) en el gabinete, etapa de apa(ri)ción con la maquina lyep.

…uo pouc iza quitando en la jangada la usina del mannuna, eficaz imitación seguida de voto… y yo dejo al ocio evadírseles la lotería que funda los pabellones de umbríos gladiadores… tu hoz cayó del iceberg inabarcable auxiliada por el búho y la urpilla del exigente loquero.

Historia:

Cierto día (que ya olvidé cual era), a cierta hora (que ya olvidé cual era) la vi por primera vez. Cabello corto (muy corto), ojos profundos, semblante de tranquilidad. Miraba el móvil afuera de un salón de preparatoria. Me puse a un lado de ella. Me miró con aquellos ojos que penetran el alma y me dijo su nombre: Aquel que jamás podré olvidar. Recuerdo (aunque no quiera) cada letra, cada modo, cada tono que conforma el conjuro que supone su nombre. 

La Maga representa todo aquello que quieres, pero que no puedes tener. 

En menos de seis meses tomó una carretera que la llevó a kilómetros de mí. Un día me desperté de aquel sueño y solo quedaban vestigios de una mujer que parecía nunca haber existido, le seguí el rastro hasta aquella ciudad interminable, aquel Leon furioso y hambriento que reclamaba nuestros cuerpos. La seguí dos veces solo darme cuenta que nada valía la pena.

Music by: @holedcoin

Poema:

Jamás fuiste más Maga que aquel día… que desapareciste entre la multitud de una ciudad vacía.

Recuerdo, solo fragmentos, tu cabello volando con el viento, tu sonrisa espontánea. A lo lejos, aquella ciudad sumergida en la melancolía…

Nunca serás más Maga que aquel atardecer en dónde mirábamos la TV, consumidos por el silencio de lo irremediable. A veces te pienso, y todo se vuelve oscuro, como si se tratase de un conjuro mágico.

Jamás serás más Maga que aquel día que te vi entrar al club y por fin entendí el mandamiento: “Santificaras las fiestas”

Recuerdo… solo fragmentos… de aquella noche oscura… nunca serás más Maga que cuando desapareciste sin dejar rastro alguno, y en mi cabeza, solo el vago rumor de una mujer de piel morena…

Jamás fuiste más Maga, como aquel día, en el que entre el silencio se iban sumergiendo tus manos, tu boca, tu cuerpo… Nunca serás más Maga, que aquel día en el que pronunciaste el tenebroso a-b-r-a-c-a-d-a-b-r-a 
           y desapareciste…

Bonfante - Bajó Del Árbol Un Tambor (Edit)

A TWICE TOLD TALE

One fine autumn day in late September, Santi (from Asunción, Paraguay) and Tuğçe (from Istanbul, Turkey) have crossed paths in a small town in the middle of the “heartland” US. From this moment on, their lives have become webs of inquiry and revelation as they have jointly devoted forces to mastering the art of musical storytelling. Drawing on a wide palette of ideas and influences, Santi & Tuğçe have created an enchanting world with their music in which the characters are driven by passion and a zest for life. A world where mythical creatures return home after an epic quest to an island surrounded by land, where a wise woman prepares potions to heal the poet, the dreamer, and the disillusioned; where planets collide and create new patterns in the cosmic swirl; where two starry-eyed lovers sail away on a sea turtle spaceship to places unknown; and where self-aware, compassionate robots resolve ancient paradoxes in their mission to rescue humanity.

On this fine autumn day in late September, thirteen years after their fortuitous encounter, Santi & Tuğçe, now based in the ‘center of electronic music’ Berlin, present their latest musical odyssey:  “A Twice Told Tale”. Filled with unmistakable charm and complexity, “A Twice Told Tale” conjures up stories that connect with something deep within the listener. Told with emotional intensity and intricacy, these are songs for and about everyone.

The first single from this EP, “Hikâye” tells a long tale, a tale that is “a little naïve, a little rebellious, and a little tender”. Life is fleeting, leaves will fall, colors will fade, and before we know it, it will be time to depart from this beautiful earth. Yet the tale we have lived to tell and the love we have lived for will remain.

LYRICS:

Uzun bir hikâye
Biraz saf, biraz asi
Biraz da kırılgan
Anlatılan 

Bir ses bir iç çekiş
Usulca duyulan
Zaman ötesinde
Yankılanan

Kabus ortasında 
Uykudan uyanmış 
Bir çocuk misali 
Haykırılan

Bir gün biterse
Hikâye, üzülme
Hayat geçse de 
Aşktır kalan


ENGLISH TRANSLATION: 

It’s a long tale 
A little naïve, a little rebellious
And a little tender

A sound, a sigh 
Which is heard discreetly
Which echoes through time

A tale that gets wailed
Like a child
Who has just awoken 
In the midst of a nightmare

If, one day, this tale reaches an end
Do not be upset 
Even though life goes away 
It is love that remains

Afraid Of Fear

Battle Lines

20201222

숨을 참고서 하늘을 바라본다.
구름이 지나간다 햇볕이 비추는 방향으로
숨이 멎어버린 상태로 하늘을 바로보고 있자면
어떤 느낌일까,
그것은 영혼의 일기이다.

음악만이 흐르는
자신이 좋아하는 한곡이, 
속도의 구애받지 않고 아주 길게.
이것은 고로 헛된 사람들을 위한 플랜비
그렇게 창작은 아픔의 반감기에 
죽음과 가까운 친구처럼
