june gloom & pluto

last june i was writing a piece of diaristic prose i titled "june gloom."  no los angeles surprise, when the smog is so thick, your sinuses swell.  this june, as i made escape, i thought to start the blog smog diaries.  i am so delighted on beck's newsletter his new playlist is titled "june gloom."

he writes about chemical trails in  the sky. pollution.  i love beck, and take him for hero and saint, and ghost.  i saw him in 2004.  he cancelled field day in 2003.  that would have been the first time.  i wish i could find him, except that his psychic energy is so strong, that i feel he is everywhere, in my mind, in my head, all day long.  and i love what he does with charlotte: how his brilliant songwriting is now channeled through the female voice.  everything about her art and style is so classic and flawless, and natural.

beck is a witty daisy.


i love his press team. beck.com and the becktionary.  sea change, especially paper tiger has been in my brain a lot lately.

when i saw the footage of the KCRW chalotte gainsbourg with beck i felt overwhelmed by their humility and gentleness.  two cancers.  two wallflowers, putting themselves on th eline for peacefulness and music and our happiness.

when i see charlotte and beck interact its a lot like karen drejer anderson of the knife with her magnificent brother.  they speak to each other silently, eternally.  as i felt electric shocks of "NO" telling me to be careful, careful of human beings.  and thankful.


nick maybury says he won't play "love" an old magical song no one knows of  . . . but "los feliz" is too much, as dreamy as bebel gilberto . . . and we are all smog sick against the pollution and smoke of the petrol craze . . .
i hope something gentle and soft as a whisper happens . . .
tomorrow
cinespace pluto set
11 pm
i am too sure i love the nick maybury sound.
maybe nick will book again for september or so.

i think this should happen often.
music so lovely as you will hear tomorrow.

i really want people to dress as fairies and wood sprites and choreograph ala midsummer nights dream . . . .
or maybe futuristic . . .
maybe just comfortably.
nick said he thinks it is his role to bring good energy to people.
i told him that was so much.
so simple but so profound.

i hope electric daisy was cool last night
