It's awesome regardless of whether or not Floyd did it intentionally.

Nice choice, SDC!
Coincidentally, I was just listening to one of my favourite Pink Floyd pieces:

“No lists of things to be done. The day providential to itself. The hour. There is no later. This is later. All things of grace and beauty such that one holds them to one's heart have a common provenance in pain. Their birth in grief and ashes.”
- Cormac McCarthy, The Road

in mountain clefts and chasms,
loud gush the streamlets,
but great rivers flow silently.
- Sutta Nipata 3.725

at last it started in the middle
beginning as it all begins, it forsook the source of things.
and that which moved flowed over that which stayed, it made the choice to form a standing wave.
it leaned the out against the in, unfolding in a place to call its own.
and it gently draped six senses over this house of cards that it built, and opened ground to the roots of touch and let them in.
incredible sensations
it was the insatiable feeling of a feeling of insatiable desire.
and all that it could do was hold tight to that that it was not.
it told itself it needed names and in so doing it became.
this is the birth that everyone is always talking about. the one assumed but not remembered.
but death does not forget.
the end will remind it to cure it of itself.

Glad to see people digging Floyd!


A beautiful cover.

The following link is to the preview track "Oh Susannah" on Neil Young's to-be-released album "Americana".

Awesome... Has Neil been brushing up on this postmodern approach from Bob?

See "When the levee's gonna break" off Modern Times...

That was lovely. It has a feel of Vaughan Williams about it, I think.



There seems to be a lot of drone based electronica/ambient music coming from Scandinavia and Germany at the moment.
