03/19 - Burning On The Inside

Well, this took a while. I blame February. February's been dismal. I was bedbound for 2,5 weeks straight and the rest of the time I've just been trying to make up for lost income. But in between, these tracks played:

Nils Frahm - Human Range

I listened to this when I had high fever. It was disorienting, but beautiful somehow.

Caetano Veloso - Dreamland

I listened to this while I was waiting for a train at Crystal Palace. There was a blunt sun and wood pigeons among the blankets of ivy that cover everything there.

Tony Allen - Don't Fight

I listened to this on the radio, in the kitchen. Fela Kuti's keyboard player, Dele Sosimi, was playing afrobeat favourites, and I was hypnotised by this serpentine, slithering incantation.

Brad Mehldau - River Man

I listened to this melody all my adult life. Oh how they come and go...

Pussy Riot - Organs

I watched all of Russian Doll. The next to last episode was the best. Not least because of Pussy Riot as outro music. If you know, you know.
