mc in a dystopia novel is always either a tomboyish teenage girl who is in some way extraordinary or a tired middle aged man who somehow ran across a manic pixie with ties to la resistance and just fell in love on spot.

Some classic Soviet-era stories for the #1937Club #platonov
After my wonderful start to the #1937club with some lovely reads, I have to confess that I hit a bit of a wall… I had a great pile of possible reads, a mixture of old favourites and books which had been lurking on the TBR for a while. However, I picked up and put down several titles, and none were really gelling with my reading mood. So I had a bit of a search around online, checking out…

Mutlu Moskova / Andrey Platonov
Mutlu Moskova Mutlu Moskova’dan… Oda iç karartıcı yoksul eşyalarla döşenmişti, sefaletten değil de hayalbazlıktan: salgın hastalık koğuşlarındakilere benzer bir demir karyolanın üzerinde yağ kir içinde, insan kokusu ta derinlerine işlemiş bir yorgan, yoğun bir konsantrasyona müsait çıplak bir masa, seri imalat hurdasından yapılma bir sandalye, duvarda en iyi sosyalizm ve on dokuzuncu yüzyıl…

How To Write A Song Called 'Purple Coke Straw'
Tumblr media
The newest Paris Street EP, Brief Feelings, is out now. As I've occasionally done with Paris Street releases, I'm going to spend this week rambling a bit about each song on the EP. Enjoy!
The song: Purple Coke Straw
youtube
When was it written? Around September of 2021.
Where was it recorded? The music was originally recorded in Sacramento. I finished the lyrics a short while later in a hotel room in Simi Valley, then recorded the vocals there in one take (possibly my finest vocal delivery ever is when I say ‘don’t ask’ in the second verse). About a year later, I finished up the instrumentation back in Sacramento.
The instruments: Mostly LMMS, with a touch of percussive egg and what I like to call the Gord Downie Memorial 4-Color Pen, which looks like this:

It makes a nice percussive sound when tapping the top part against my leg.
The bass line was originally composed on the ukulele bass before I transposed it onto LMMS. I also recorded a rhythm part on acoustic guitar and recorded multiple melodies on guitar before ditching all of it for the sake of a mellower, unfussy vibe.
What’s it about? Well, I found a purple coke straw on my bathroom floor one morning, behind the toilet. I knew who it belonged to, but felt it would make a better song if I wrote it from the perspective of someone who was completely clueless as to how it got there.
Upon discovery, I placed the straw in a cabinet above the toilet, next to my shaving gear. It is from that location where it became the cover star for this EP. At last check, it’s no longer there – have no clue where it ended up.
Anything else to say about this song? The ‘internet installer with the repressed Russian past’ was a young lady who came to my apartment on behalf of AT&T to restart an internet connection that her company had mucked up. When I noticed her Russian last name, she told me she was born there and spent her first couple years in Moscow. We then talked extensively about Russian poetry and literature, exchanging thoughts on different authors that either she hadn’t heard about (Andrey Platonov) or I hadn’t heard about (Mikhail Bulgakov). It was great, and she said she’d keep in touch so we could talk more about it.
For the next week, she would text me almost every day to tell me about different deals I could qualify for if I switched my cell service to AT&T. By the end of the week, I had blocked her number.  
Brief Feelings can be found on Bandcamp, Spotify, Amazon Music, and all other streamers of note.

Do you know how much thinking and feeling I’ve done? It’s terrible. And nothing’s come of it.
