A binaural soundscape featuring several Swainson's Thrushes singing in Subalpine Fir near Baldy Mountain to the east of Oliver in the Okanagon Valley of British Columbia.  Recorded 7:20am, 28 June 2017.

This beautiful soundscape also includes the rush of a mountain brook (left channel)and the gentle gurgling of a nearby freshet (right channel). Listen also for what I believe to be six nasal calls from a young mule deer (fawn), sounding off in the distance at 6:50 as it moved through the forest.

Science suggests we’re hardwired to delude ourselves. Can we do anything about it?

The John Santos Sextet 'Art of the Descarga' available August 7th, 2020 on CD, digital, and streaming.

Built on the Afro-Caribbean past, forged by visionaries such as John Santos and his comrades, and steeled by its rootedness in American life, Latin jazz is a major force shaping contemporary American musical culture. Over decades of performing, arranging, producing, and teaching, Santos has helped make the San Francisco Bay area a Latin jazz stronghold. In Art of the Descarga, The John Santos Sextet and a parade of stellar guests mine the music’s imaginative motherlode, the descarga—the spontaneous, improvisatory interplay that is the beating heart of Latin jam sessions. Orestes Vilató, Jerry González, Orlando “Maraca” Valle, Tito Matos, Juan “Juango” Gutiérrez, and other luminaries join the sextet in this spectacular collision of beauty, design, and time-honored creativity.

Das Veilchen, von Johann Wolfgang v. Goethe, melody by Nina Hagen 

Ein Veilchen auf der Wiese stand

Gebückt in sich und unbekannt;

Es war ein herzig's Veilchen.

Da kam eine junge Schäferin,

Mit leichtem Schritt und munterm Sinn,

Daher, daher,

Die Wiese her, und sang.

"Ach!" denkt das Veilchen, "wär' ich nur

Die schönste Blume der Natur,

Ach, nur ein kleines Weilchen,

Bis mich das Liebchen abgepflückt

Und an dem Busen matt gedrückt!

Ach nur, ach nur

Ein Viertelstündchen lang!"

Ach! aber ach! das Mädchen kam

Und nicht in acht das Veilchen nahm,

Ertrat das arme Veilchen.

Es sank und starb und freut' sich noch:

"Und sterb' ich denn, so sterb' ich doch

Durch sie, durch sie,

Zu ihren Füßen doch."

This is for anyone who has escaped a relationship with a narcissist and they reach out to you, out of the blue – and how to navigate that situation. So if you were manipulated, taken advantage of, and could not find your way out of a relationship that left you feeling like the shell of a human – you were likely with a narcissist. Getting out of this kind of relationship is extremely difficult – so the eventual reach-out from this person might leave you feeling sick to your stomach. I send you my love and please stay strong!
