ENTIRE INBOX: Batch 268

A little flock of Whooper Swans, arrived a few days ago, one hour after sunset at Rengaskari Reef one mile from our home shore.  The sea is frozen a long way out, but by the shallow waters of the reef there's a small piece of free water.  The picture is by sunset as I leaved the mics on the reef.

Updating www.rupuranta.net  - Better description maybe later ;-

She's A Stunner

This song is about letting go of an abusive relationship. There’s a lot of fear and doubt that comes with separating yourself from somebody who manipulates you, and it leaves behind feelings of anger, as well as guilt and doubt. You end up questioning everything while simultaneously harbouring a lot of resentment for the person who treated you that way. We wanted this song to feel cathartic and unapologetic—it ultimately feels very healing.

even in jest

notes app apologies

I've fallen down the rabbit hole
Ricochet/Vertigo
Clinging to my skull
You've spread like wildfire in my head

My foundation's crumbling
A vast universe I'm holding in

Every time I fall in love
It always feels like this

I want to crawl inside your skin
Want to try on your name
Want to see what it feels like to be beautiful

I just think I love you more
Than anyone else ever could

Thunder
You're the ground shaking under my feet
A crack in the earth
I am open and empty

Floating Faces

From the new album - 'Sound Postcards from the Centre of the Periphery' by Manja Ristić and Mark Vernon.

We made this 13-track journey around the sounds and sonic histories of the island of Korčula. In addition to our own field recordings, we were given access to the audio archives of the local radio station, including recordings of folk customs, traditional songs, dances and music...

This album unites two specific sensibilities that for many years have been embedded in the domain of sound and radio arts. Although they arose from very different environments, their work explores similar issues around preserving personal sonic histories. By stirring up nostalgia and collective memory, both artists often refer to the importance of individual experiences in the poetic "body" of micro-communities. 

The artistic practice of both creators has been deeply immersed in the sonic strata of space and the imaginary narratives that emerge from it. A dedication to the culture of memory, the sounding of lost voices and an unorthodox approach to re-composing the soundscape, conveniently unites these two experimenters in a collaboration that arises from research into one particularly inspiring locality – the island of Korčula. 

In addition to their own field recordings the artists were given access to the audio archives of the local radio station, including sounds of local folk customs, traditional songs, festivities and music. The strong anthropological emphasis in this collection of works is intended to encourage a deeper consideration of the coexistence of people and the environment in a historically dense climate. The appropriation of the hidden narratives of a small town on the fringes of the European Union opens up new fields of reflection on identity that looks back at the "center of the periphery", pointing to the importance of "small" spaces in the creation of European heritage. 

‘Sound postcards from the center of the periphery’ will be stored permanently in the audio archives of Radio Korčula. Who knows, maybe someone will dig them out in 50 years and say: "...there you go! This will make your head ring!" 

Special thanks to Radio Korčula, Gordana Šuperak and Ivan Sardelic Šore. To Pere from the Marasa printing house and to all the fellow citizens of Korčula who found themselves on this album intentionally or accidentally.

LYRICS...

(Verse 1)
Yea i’d fly away
Honey i would fly away
If you ask me if you if you ask me

I got mad dreams, wonder if we catch heat
We could rent a car, live on out the back seat

Got my girl here, we ain't got no worry here
Turn the day round, we could run away now
We could seize the moment run it like a playground
We could do whatever honey if you say now

(Pre-Chorus)
Now now now
We could leave this town
We could do whatever we want to, want to

(Chorus)
Simple man from Africa
One day love i'll marry ya
Home is anywhere we are

I don't drive no shiny car
Dine in suits or smoke cigars
but i'll love you to the stars

(Verse 2)
What a day, what a day
Now won't you listen to what i've got to say
Girl heed the man on the steeple
Love we don't need no other people

We need the right way
But we do em our way
Oh you're my best-friend, hit the road then text them
We ain't gotta try impress them all

(Verse 3)
Tell your friends, i'll tell my friends, we'll lay the plans yea
Then i'll call me an Uber to your ends yea
We can break it to your mama, make amends yea
We'll lay the plans yea
Go for the win yea 


(Pre-Chorus)
Now now now
We could leave this town
We could do whatever we want to, want to

(Chorus)
Simple man from Africa
One day love i'll marry ya
Home is anywhere we are

I don't drive no shiny car
dine in suits or smoke cigars
but i'll love you to the stars
