Video: "Superposition" by Children of the State

In a day and time where we are wholly connected with the entire world at all times  based on the little rectangles we keep in our pockets, why is it that internationally flavored things strike me so?

Perhaps it's the devilishly clever usage of a rotary phone in a box, the fact that this video was recorded in Transylvania and the United Kingdom?

Maybe it's just because every so often we all need a nice dosage of beautiful music when so much ugly is happening right now.

LP Review: "Zaul Mos" by Syn Ze Sase Tri

Zaul Mos

These days, my life is a primarily urban existence. My home is in the City of St. Louis. My job is in the suburbs, but not in the country.

That's my personal preference as an aging human in the United States. Having a better train system would certainly enhance the experience, but let's not get too greedy right?

My youngest days were spent very differently though. The family is now scouting out Missouri's State Parks and the little short girl who lives in my house is shocked to find out how much of my time was spent in the woods or on lakes.

When I was coming up, my house in Ballwin was surrounded by dense forests that stretched for miles. My cousins and I could actually walk to each others houses via the trails in the woods. The creek, the paths, the snakes...they all left indelible marks on me.
