CXXXII

By Scott Reid | 1 September 2013

Art: Eva Eun-Sil Han, “Mixed media on canvas” // bsmethers, “Iceland”

With thanks to all of the artists involved, this CMGcast is dedicated to everyone who, like me, grew up with a birthday in early September, during the summer’s-dead-and-school’s-back-and-fuck-you-buddy-fun-is-officially-over “holiday” that is Labor Day weekend.

Self-help tapes, a traditional Korean gayageum, field recordings, one of the Yeezus producers, abrupt transitions, Earl, disembodied voices, decaying noise, panting, jazz briefly, and six minutes of pure joy from Friendzone: this is the conflicted sound of making the best of a weekend that, growing up, felt like the longest Sunday evening ever, a last-day-of-vacation funk that just wouldn’t quit, and which now as a working adult feels as unremarkable as any other weekend, thankfully.
