I used to buy old records from a second-hand store.I couldnt wait to get home and play them,searching for the perfect sample to dissect.Out of the bagfill of records,at least 2 had the right sauce for my hip hop food (check the Soundsection for exhibit A).Something about not being able to toss the duds away left me with loads of sample-less records,useless weight,those suckers are heavy when its time to lug them around...
In the summer of '05,the lack of extra cash for canvas and nothing immediate to paint on had me looking at the stacks of sample-less records as new open surface.The concept of creating visual art on a surface that holds audio art is intriguing to me.
When you and I were our best I sometimes go there and think about what we had and know it was special
In time all things come back.Full circle.The weight of the past is heavy and it hunches backs.Make sure to bring your lantern and take care to guard your eye.All things come to center stage in time.
