About Me

..
The renowned futurist Alvin Toffler predicted the social, moral, andeconomic splintering and fragmentation that affects our world today threedecades ago. I am not sure he knew just how mutated the free market systemof commerce would become however.
I value individuality. Not just my individuality, but yours also.If we all eat the same food, wear the same clothes, listen to the samemusic- we are copies , (clones), of each other. If both people in the argument agree, one of them is unnecessary. Now isthe time to be an individual- this is my place to be me= and you to buggeroff if you don't like it!!
This is synthesized music. These are not musical instruments. Thishere stuff are the result of sound manipulation through the use ofmathematical formulae. I make the sounds the way I want them- and most ofthe time I want sounds that don't sound familiar.
I want new sounds,untried sounds, freaking unnerving and placidly absurd sounds.This is synthesized music. These are not musical instruments. Thishere stuff are the result of sound manipulation through the use ofmathematical formulae. I make the sounds the way I want them- and most ofthe time I want sounds that don't sound familiar. I want new sounds,untried sounds, freaking unnerving and placidly absurd sounds. Sneakingly disturbing and intractably wacky sounds.
Still strapped to the seat of a falling spaceship- the 3 year old copy of Lounge Gizzard reaches for the time barrier control device. As 60 foot flames erupted from the crater site, a large planetoid spun free from the steam fissure. One more attempt and the time barrier came back up - as did the real Lounge Gizzard, (the copy being sucked back into the Walmart vortex).Reaching for a can of 3bean salad. consumer 34503 hesitated- then grabbed the meatless, beanless chili instead. The camera took notice and the buying choice was registered in the state corporate consumer database. Meanwhile 3200 workers at the 3bean salad factory were dismissed and a new chili factory was built in outer Rotundolia. Aclicking, a tapping, an unflinching squealing was coming from the machines as they did their jobs. A wheezing, a weeping, a hissing of gases was produces when the rotting goods of production decayed underground-
Enveloped by the gray-silver wedge of vapor emanating from the amino-cataytic mineral furnace-factory, by way of his favorite fast meat-popper stand, Isaac made his way back to the closest border checkpoint. Beneath the flashing high-def billboard advertisements, a long line of wannabee and secure citizens waits for admission into the gun-turreted state-run store. The smiling banners pulsate to a fractal beat as the voices of the great leaders and policy deciders repeats catchy political mottoes from wafer thin speakers applied to every vertical surface- resembling the antique price stickers in the museum. Excitement was in the air as the crowd was anticipating the bargains inside the consumer heaven. The state store was built for them each through the daily questionnaires answered by innocuous web-surfing habits. Almost everyone in line was already watching a virtual "storeworld", (where everything is free), through the stereo ATFT computer screens attached to their heads; often on stylish soccer caps. Most of the people here were on the "6-1" plan. This meant the govenment let them spend one day a week shopping. Only the most respectable occupations within society- lawyer, politician, stock market bubble theorist, etc. were on the "5-2" plan. Most of the time in the bigger cities like Alphaville, the store was kept open 24 hours a day. However, today a terrorist was being apprehended inside the store so troops were sent in and the doors closed. While the news of this was distressing, many shoppers had a system in place to pay a legal immigrant to keep their place in line until the store re-opened after the incursion was contained. Many people paid with coupons or "bargaining chips" that came with discounts on popular merchandise in the store. Wives and husbands had no trouble finding each other after work due to the government sponsered global positioning ID cards most people had in their purses or wallets. The newest model came installed on a molecule and was injected into the citizen's bloodstream at birth - thanks to breakthroughs in nanotechnology. So utopian were the details of this society, that everyone could not help but be bedazzed by them. And all of these were: Benefits Of World Conformity.
Lounge Gizzard has stepped forward. Atmosphere inspires feelings. So it’s no surprise to find atmosphere at the core of Lounge Gizzard’s inspiration. Out of “smoky rooms with crazy lights, songs that make you forget who and where you are.” Lounge Gizzard summons the power of prog, space, jazz, electronica, rock and much more, creates mind-shifting music. “Lounge Gizzard defies expectations and carries listeners to whole new places.” – A&R Select ( I paid them 400. $$ to write that review..-LG)
