While we wait on that exposé I want to go back to when it all went undeniably wrong: 2016.
Such an incredible year for music and such horrible year for humanity. As harrowing as 2020 has been I feel like at least there’s a light at the end of the tunnel. Now I’m very pessimistic about what’s after the tunnel but it’s not like 2016 when we were just entering the tunnel and that was all we knew. Well, I mean we don’t know for sure the future now anymore than then but idk perhaps it’s just that frightening novelty that it’s not ok has worn off. We’ve adjusted to the deeply not ok and even relish in the idea of entering a much more profoundly not ok era or a ray of sun or crisp air or whatever it is.
Controlling Body by Peder Mannerfelt
The Subliminal Kid is Peder Mannerfelt.
That Subliminal Kid is DJ Spooky.
They’re different people.
This album is an electronic album that has an uneasy feel and incorporates fragmented what’s he saying vocal samples designed to echo in your head drug music especially weed - on the cusp connectivity but ultimately too strange to unravel.

Mannerfelt's Controlling Body (2016) was built around samples of recorded music and amateur videos plus new compositions sung by Cameron Mesirow (aka Glasser). The vocal samples are dissected and warped beyond recognition until they become voiceless sounds. Mostly these skeletal pieces rely on minimalist repetition of vocal effects

The presidential candidates are making final pitches to New York voters ahead of the state's crucial primaries on Tuesday. The frontrunners, Republican Donald Trump and Democrat Hillary Clinton, are heading into the contest with double-digit polling leads. Still, Trump rivals John Kasich and Ted Cruz can win some of the state's coveted 95 GOP delegates if they keep Trump below 50 percent statewide, and in some of the state's 27 congressional districts. Clinton rival Bernie Sanders will look for a stronger-than-expected showing to preserve momentum gained in a string of recent wins.
