Day 26- What you think about your friends
Uh, they’re great. What else would I say, that my friends are shit? Jeez.
Only thing is that we don’t always see eye-to-eye or see each other as often as we want but, y’know, that’s what happens with everybody you’ll ever meet.
“What else is there to say about the next film? The working title is ‘Berberian Sound Studio’. We won’t have fleas in our sleeping bags this time. Most importantly, if you get off on Luigi Nono, Luciano Berio/Cathy Berberian, Gruppo di Improvisazione Nuova Consonanza, Erno Kiraly/Katalin Ladik and The Bohman Brothers, then at least we’ll be breathing the same air. If gore is your thing, then you might as well stand in line for a refund.”
—Peter Strickland. I’m looking forward to this one. Time to get into all of those things up there!
Top Twenty Rap Beats of the 2000s
This list is indisputable & correct. Songs & blurbs will begin shortly. Take this list as seriously as if it had been handed down to Moses on stone tablets.
One entry daily.
Stoked to read.
In right now to say Jeezy’s “Who Dat” because the first time I heard it was like FUUUUUCK.
Listen
R.E.M. - Finest Worksong (off Document, 1988, I.R.S.)
Day 25- What I would find in your bag
Usually my wallet, business cards, spare change, my iPod, house keys (sometimes car keys), a notepad or two, a bunch of pens, a piece of fruit, old chocolate wrappers, Blackberry charger, a book that I carry around all the time but barely read (currently Down and Out in Paris and London).
Day 24- A letter to your parents
You do your best, I’m happy. Hope you’re stoked.
Day 23- Something you crave for a lot
Nom nom nom nom nom.
Day 22- What makes you different from everyone else
I’m half-Peruvian, half-Scottish. I have the Prince symbol tattooed on my right foot, which I guess you don’t have. I turned The Killing Fields off after thirty minutes because it’s a pretty terrible film. I worry too much about my weight while also knowing that I’m being self-conscious as shit. I have an odd case of nostalgia attached to The Cataracts’ “Marshawn Lynch”, something that nobody else in the world understands or respects (beast mode). I’ve got this weird accent that sounds American but only when I roll my r’s and n’s. I got to mention Tyra Banks in my undergrad dissertation. I wear a black cat mask with an inverted cross on it when I play live music. I once had an awesome threesome dream with Scarlett Johannsson and Natalie Portman, and this was way before The Other Boleyn Girl came out. I’m me, I’m me, who you, fuck you, you’re not me.
What else do you want, internet meme?
Day 19- Nicknames you have; why do you have them
Right, late again - couldn’t be bothered with internet memes. DON’T ASK WHY, I DUNNO!
- SWAMP - My stage name with Guns of Parlophone, my tag.
- DANTAA - A message board nickname I had growing up that stuck a little.
- DANNY - What everyone calls me anyway.
Sorry if you waited four days for this amazing post.
