An exceptional reconfiguration of a cultural phenomenon that ushered in the age of entrancing bliss-pop. Dare I call it inter-generational? I do. It’s the perfect background music for studio visits with potential collectors.

An exceptional recording of Grandaddy Duchamp discussing “the two poles of the creation of art: the artist on the one hand, and on the other the spectator who later becomes the posterity.” This was recorded in 1957, mind you.

A personal reference to a work I created in tandem with an essay titled, “Legwork is Surviving,” which is part of a larger collaboration with Legwork. The MP3 itself is a [somewhat] humorous attempt at extending the dispersive economy of Price’s work while embodying a survivalist mode of collaboration. More on this later.

The following MP3 list is a short overview of some of the music I’ve been listening to lately, while making things [particularly in the drawing-vein].

Please listen to these songs loudly, while staring into the center of the ear.
Since you probably aren’t going to listen to these songs while staring at the ear, please give thanks to the music gods [or the makers of music] instead, and please don’t push them like they were drugs.
