    (that's me and yeah I suck but whatevs)

    Another one that gets me--the one that got me to pick up the piano--is Schubert's Wanderer Fantasie. I like this youtube link because the cover art that Deutsche Gram used on Pollini's record (*the* best recording extant, not even close) is David Friedrich's 'The Wanderer'...something about this ethos resonates with me. This time I won't suggest my version even though it's a solid effort at the 10 month point.



    I want to wander! I have the wanderlust!

    There's more stars in this constellation of being 'the wanderer', but I don't want to make this a treatise. But when I encounter them I'll share. This was another Grieg lyric piece that also evoked that kind of ethos or emotion.



    Somehow, for me, all this music shares something.

    Apparently in his downtime because of the virus outbreak Dev is going to do a podcast/podcasts for certain albums while also writing material. He did this most recently and its simply beautiful on all levels. The guy is flat out an amazing artist, here is what he had to say about the song and what he will be doing.

    Hello all, welcome to the first instalment of my 'Quarantine Project'I want to be able to provide some relief during these coming times in the ways that I am able to. People have been supportive of me in my time of need with the GoFundMe campaign, as we lost a lot of revenue due to the current and foreseeable touring cycle, and want to make sure I can provide something that in some way begins to say 'thank you'.

    In the ways I'm able, I will provide as much content as I can during this period as its what I feel I can offer. My company has a lot of people involved, and your support has saved us in so many ways. I know we are all affected by this and yes, I could look for another job during this period like so many others will have to, but I figure that the best thing I can do is focus on my work and hopefully provide some sort of relief doing what I'm best at.

    I want to give back as much as I can over the next while, and I hope that some of the work I can manage here will provide a bit of comfort during these troubled times for those who enjoy what I do.This first song is just a melancholy sort of thing called ‘Quarantine’ to start the proceedings. The idea with this is that it may be many different styles, Twitch streams, concerts, perhaps a podcast... I have been kept afloat by the audience and wish to help in any way I can. (I am just learning how to do video and I will try to get more proficient at it as the time goes by).

    I will do everything I can to help in the ways that I'm able to. On behalf of myself, Northern Music, HevyDevy Records, and the entire team that makes up my professional world, Thanks for supporting (saving) our business during this downturn. We realize the number of people that are suffering and don't take this lightly. I figure the best way I can express this is to simply get to work. I will make sure I provide for the people who donated especially. I am working on lots of ideas to provide during this hard period. I truly can't express my gratitude enough. Thank you.

    I'm listening to a podcast that MO likes and it's about drafting the best band names, and what is the first band name selected by one of the panelists?

    Yes, it is that one particular Steve Albini creation we all know and love.

    omg MO I could kiss you

    Shellac of North America



    I remember being hammered on a drive home from a concert and a couple of us were like 'oh shit, you like Shellac too?' The third dude was 'what's that'. And we put on this song and I karaoke'd the dogshit out of it, kinda scary (it's a disturbing song and I fvkkin meant it)...oh, memories.

    And the weird thing is, I'm just not a bitter dude. Just kinda intense sometimes.

    They have a guy who tracks all their episodes, so I looked it up. Pretty sure it’s Lisa Lisa and the Cult Jam that made me laugh til I cried.
