Favoriting Explorers Room with Flash Strap: Playlist from February 25, 2021 Favoriting

Flash Strap's avatar View Flash Strap's profile Favoriting

This is where all of culture and all of time are collapsed into one seductive portal and viewed through the panoramic lens of the exotic. Come and embark on an armchair-travel virtual-voyage to the heart of timeless darkness and beyond; embrace the numinous monolith of the exotic immensity. Let us find that place where hybridization meets its destiny as pure fantasy. Let us become observers observing those others who are ourselves. You wear your mask and I'll wear mine.

Ebirah and Son of Godzilla were two lower budget Toho Godzilla films directed by Jun Fukuda – both take place on highly exotic islands with tons of cool miniature palms and things... 2 really perfect exotica films in a lot of ways. and both have scores by Masaru Sato, so they sound amazing

Son of Godzilla plot - all the fantasies of a bullied schoolboy. The Godzilla franchise goes all over the place - keeps it interesting I think... The goofy 1960s/70s Showa Era what I grew up w/ - hoping Creature Double Feature outta Boston would go Kaiju (Giant Monsters) on a given Saturday afternoon...

But generally - there's a pocket illustration of how much the Music Industry has changed. All Top Down (Corporate) now - though we do have Webz & FMU &tc. ... & in turn - the Music Industry is a neat pocket illustration of what has happened in the Economy in general: fewer & fewer owning more & more... As Zappa noted - the cigar-chewing Suits had no idea what was going on with Counter Culture - so @ 1st they signed all kindsa stuff. Later - they hired someone 'Hip' to decide - & it went to hell...

I was RR. That one time I heard Help I'm a rock I was walking around in my backyard with a Zenith transistor glued to my ear. It was on KHJ, which even to the young me seemed like the less interesting of the three AM rock stations in L.A. KRLA, KFWB, KHJ. Four if you count KBLA which had a weak transmitter and you could only hear in Burbank, I'm told. I was just walking around in that backyard awhile ago, looking at a tree that I have to tend to.

oh (@941) if she emailed me and told me what card to do i'd have done it already.

Coel, I was assigned my card, but as luck would have it is the most foreboding card in the deck.

Rough Marathon for me. Got no income.
When I was making a pittance - I dig SwagForLife anyway - $!0-15/month... That's not hard - if you even have it...
Yeah Corea seems had a strong McCoy Tyner chord thing - but Bill Evans worship too - Latin Rhythm - just all the pistons... & seems was a totally righteous encouraging human !

Hi Danny, I made an apple pie a little while ago. Do you like apple pie?

coelacanth∅:

maybe she wanted the bio about myself first so she could appropriately assign a card?
...if so how do i write a bio without violating myself?

Coel, that's what Georgy said to me, she wants Sheena fans to be represented by cards as well as DJ's.
