Bad Weeds

Just finished reading the greek version of David Prudhomme's multi-awarded "Rebetiko - Bad Weeds" graphic novel and i can't recommend it enough. Really cheap, too - for a hardcover. From the artist's blog, i picked up a nice BBC documentary on Rebetika narrated by Anthony Quinn that somehow eluded me. Perfect dinner-time watch.

Four Tet

Awesome Four Tet Fact Mix

Time Out Of Joint

"Structurally we can describe something, but the magic lies in the things that you can't describe.. We can describe the parts of a particular track, and loosely what genre it falls into, but what the music is trying to communicate is something very specific to what that person or group of people had in mind or were feeling at that time, and there's a whole range of emotions, there's a whole range of alternative visions or alternative realities, that are being protected in here."
