“the robots are smarter than ever, and the algorithm knows more and more what we like as individuals, but we have to remind ourselves that there is music in the margins that can go missing and that that music is more important than ever.” - Holy Fuck
I wonder what a world made entirely of music would look like.
“I believe as creators, the art doesn't always come from us, but sometimes it is channeled through us from a higher source.” - Storry

“When the future is wide open, it can be easy to overthink your present decisions in the face of who you might become. You can never know for sure if life will turn out the way you hope when you go with your gut instinct. There is always a possibility for failure, and fear of failure can be overwhelming enough to drive you to the wrong kinds of compromises.” - Mute Choir

Holy Fuck! So much to do. I have lots of events at Kops Records Oshawa coming up, I’m involved in the 2020 Oshawa Music Awards and I have a new TV show for Bell FIbe1 on the Oshawa music scene about to start shooting. its always about building platforms, but its also about maintaining them. So lets get back on track and dig into some new tunes here.
"There isn't a single narrative driving this album, but we do linger on some basic human problems: confusion in the face of a desire for self-knowledge and belonging, a struggle for meaning that is circular and sometimes seemingly endless," - Loving

Been watching ‘Abstract’ on the Netflix - art is the answer, we are getting closer to the medium marrying the message, art is where the message and the medium become one. On Abstract S2 Ep 2 the message is we could perhaps build not as assembly, not as a factory with parts on an assembly line; we could build like nature, instead of assembling we could grow. Plant the seed, add time. We can grow not assemble.
"disappear" appears on nêhiyawak's debut album 'nipiy' out October 24, 2019 on Arts & Crafts. http://nehiyawak.lnk.to/nipiy || http://nehiyawak.com nêhiyawak hails from amiskwaciy (Edmonton) on Treaty 6 territory. On the band's debut album, nipiy - out October 24 on Arts & Crafts - the trio of Indigenous artists - Kris Harper (vocals, guitars), Marek Tyler (drums), and Matthew Cardinal (synths, bass) - transcends a new intersection of traditional storytelling and modern sound.
“Why is nêhiyawak more than a band? Because our families, our nêhiyaw communities, and our ways of knowing and being inform our work. For me, our album nipiy represents an ongoing process of connecting, learning and growing with each other.” - Marek Tyler

staring out the window she's calmly waiting confiding, silently searching the sky as if for a sign she's waiting on someone is it the sun? is it the sun? only she knows tracing the lines of a winter's mind she won't be long eyes opened wide to a darkness inside but what does she see?
