#Listening to Antibalas serving up yet another gorgeous earful of smooth but crunchy psychedelic goodness from the KEXP live-to-air stage;

I find myself wondering how musicians can focus on creating magical sounds like this, when the world feels like the climactic scenes of The Neverending Story. Bits and pieces of a once coherent reality, floating in a vacuum of all-consuming Nothing.

David Byrne & St. Vincent, Love This Giant, 2012 on 4AD
Two of the most creative and eclectic artists and musicians collaborate here on a brass-band heavy record. (St. Vincent also contributed to Here Lies Love, Byrne’s collaboration with Fatboy Slim – a concept album / rock musical about Imelda Marcos).
The Dap-Kings and the Antibalas Afrobeat Orchestra join on “The One Who Broke Your Heart” and John Congleton co-produced with Byrne, St. Vincent (Annie Clark), and Patrick Dillett.
Fantastic album – unexpected but once you get to know it you can’t imagine how it could be any better.
My copy (based on runouts) is a somewhat later pressing (indeterminate) with markings from both Optimal Media GmbH and United Record Pressing – via Electric Fetus in Minneapolis MN

I've been thinking about the concept of dirty money and I have to wonder what the difference really is. Isn't it the same dollar bill whether it's in the bank or in the drug dealer's pocket?
