Just in Time

 Phew!

I've been a bit lazy this week and we were very nearly facing an expected day without a post here on the Swinging Singles Club. So just in the nick of time I'm going to vomit out a few to get us through until another time I have time off be it a week from now or a month or something.

It's also rapidly approaching the cut off point before I start deleting things to free up space. There's like a Gig left to go. I'll probably do a couple of months at a time and free up 3 or 4Gs of space then rinse and repeat as necessary.


Scenes from the South Island (1995)


It seems kind of fitting as the Northern Hemisphere slowly sinks into the darkness with the shortening of days to throw some Roy Montgomery into the mix here.

This is a moody atmospheric instrumental album done on a home 4-track if memory serves. (The Porta-One was a fucking game changer, kids.)

Great music for brooding in a darkening room watching a gray day slowly sink into darkness without being all Goth about it. It's a lot more actual existential dread than "existential dread" but with black nail polish.

But Christchurch really does seem to pump out the melancholy.
