Kenzo (Ken's Last Ever)'s avatar View Kenzo (Ken's Last Ever)'s profile Favoriting

A live, improvised sound collage experiment, going back 28 years, weaving mesmerizing new soundscapes from found and collected materials right in the present moment.
Pop music, speeches, live phone calls and spontaneous monologues become ambient loopy layered threads riding the liminal spaces between waking and dreaming. [On hiatus.] (Visit homepage.)

Favoriting June 26, 2019: New Whirled Symphony (Show #566/659) | Download full MP3

A gorgeously playful menagerie. From weeks, moments, emptiness, rejuvenation, confusions, spirits, hope, loves, angst, creation, relief, questions, came glorious absurd sonic beauty and laughter. I'm very proud of this week's mess(age).

Combining: Van Morrisson, Vangelis, Antonín Dvorák, Jim Steinman's bombastic Wagnerian 80's pop, Def Leppard, David Guetta & Sia, The Police, Ella Fitzgerald, Erasure, Escala, Matthew Mathis, Moby, Vincent Duseigne, Ogurusu Norihide, Fairuza Balk, Pink Floyd, Charlie Kaufman, Nicholas Cage, Claire Danes, Radiohead, Richard Stallman, Seconds, Lara Flynn Boyle, Twin Peaks, My So-Called Life, THX 1138, Donald Pleasence, WarGames, Matthew Broderick, Daniel J. Davis, Air Supply, Bonnie Tyler, Ingrid Bergman... and a lot more, in ways only previously imagined once.

Ken  Consequences, obligations (I'm not going to pretend that I know, and I'm not going to pretend that I don't)   Favoriting   2018  It just comes out this way. I make no authentic apologies, but I will politely apologize. But then I will augment that with something that empowers you to realize that nobody needs to apologize for anything, and you should go forward with your ridiculous idea, and don't worry about the ridicule, and just go forward with it; it's going to be beautiful, it's going to be important, it's going to reach the people who need it, it's going to help you, and it's going to cause all sorts of stirs in the world with discomfort, and it's going to open up things for people that they don't want opened up.

Especially those of you who said, "I'm going to call next time, because I didn't know what I would do last time." It's not about knowing! You don't know anything. You're never going to know. So, just go.  		1:00:42 (MP3 | Pop-up)

I ate fried bologna sandwiches sometimes, as a child.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 1/10/18 5:43pm Rich in Washington:

@Kenzo (Ken's Last Ever): I am especially fond of that phone. It's one of those once ubiquitous tan 70s pushbutton phones, bought because it had a real bell mute function and a red call indicator light - perfect for a sound studio. It also has a taped on note on the handset that says 'One Minute Limit, Please'. We think it came from a school front office.

I literally don't now what a fried luncheon meat is, but I might still have the disorder.
