Masterclass in Distortion... Gary Numan and more Igorrr by Charles Wiese

My ears have traveled many paths over the years. I have enjoyed the elegance of “pure” instrumentation, devoid of distortion. However, these past few years have opened up a whole world of appreciation for the power of masterfully wielded distortion. The density of the musical stew delights me. The work of Gary Numan is a case in point…

I need some Tom Waits - how about you? by Charles Wiese

I realized today that I’ve been listening to the music of Tom Waits for over 45 years now. I’ve never grown tired of it. The first video is Hell Broke Luce - an ever timely response to the ridiculous perpetual funding of the military in America. Today’s news held forth on the billions included in what is supposed to be a pandemic relief bill put together in the US senate… supported by legislators from both sides of an all too narrow aisle. Superb visuals by a long time favorite photographer, Matt Mahurin.

Timely videos by Todrick Hall... by Charles Wiese

I found Mr. Hall’s work when producing sound tracks for my nephew’s 50 States project. They (Nick Vaughan and Jake Margolin) were putting together a video installation that drew from the history of drag performers here in Houston (and elsewhere).

Kudos to Mr. Hall. Strong work - important messages. Ordinary Day is from the Forbidden project - I highly recommend it.

Something musical and visual... by Charles Wiese

Here are a few tunes from S. America… good music and visuals to match.

Song: Alegría Artist: Chancha Via Circuito Album: Bienaventuranza Labels: Wonderwheel Recordings / Estamos Felices Directed and animated by: Kati Egely 2018

The artist (Kati Egely) for Alegria did something else worth watching…

Throughout history people have always been searching for a perfect place. This shortfilm, based on Guaraní mythology (Tierra sin mal), offers another point of view on paradise: what if the real paradise is inside us and lies in the harmony and unity of everything alive? El ser humano siempre ha buscado su lugar en el universo. Éste cortometraje se base en la mitología Guaraní pero ofrece otro punto de vista: ¿qué ocurre, si el paraíso no es un lugar específico sino está en nuestra mente y en la armonía con todos los seres vivos?

Lastly, a fine bit of work by Lido Pimiento. I first encountered her voice when she collaborated with the group A Tribe Called Red.
