Choon of the Day

[sadmanbarty]

you think of funk and disco with intricate and finicky. mechanic. then out of nowhere something will emerge. expansive. oceanic. broad brush strokes. you get lost in it


"responsibility to me is a tragedy... the music is my salvation"

The person next to me at work has left early and they've got a plant (aloe vera?) which is sprawled against a monitor.

Listening to this while looking at the plant I was briefly transported to a post apocalyptic world of sinister blind vegetation (influenced by the 'Tell me where you live' thread no doubt)

Must be one of the earliest choons to incorporate phone noises...

Other than that, sort of reminds me of an LFO choon, and now I know where 'Keep the Fire Burning' comes from.

the upness of 'dial up' is religiously suggestive in this context.

Perhaps there's something deeply ingrained in us now re: buttons.

The mechanism of pushing a button and expecting to be stimulated or satisfied, which didn't exist a hundred years ago.

it's somewhat penetrative.

alternatively, in terms of pop music its often used to denote the clitoris.

True, ejaculative - ejaculation of information. And of course all this stuff is tied in to our reward centres - like those buttons lab rats push for a sugarcube or whatever.

 

[sadmanbarty]

touching the 'buttons' on the iphone screen aren't as satisfying as touching real ones.

 

[Corpsey]

I read an article somewhere online by the guy who'd designed the mechanism where you drag down on your touchscreen to refresh the page. Think he sold it to Twitter.

It's like a slot machine or something. The physical action producing an effect, innately satisfying, innately addictive.

 

[versh]

Immaculate.

sounding like a bourgeois marxist seminar on psychoanalysis here lads. really couldn't care about how sebastian budgen or David Renton sound in bed, if I'm being honest.
