i believe writers do this when they believe the subject needs to be taken
down a few notches.

he's had a few little bits here and there, but xenakis rules much harder.
i like the vibe of genesis' abacab album a little. it's got these really
creepy, slightly detuned synths all over it. it's a nice mood, especially
for a mainstream pop record. he's most certainly a total shill at this
point, but perhaps many moons ago he believed in creating art. . . ah,
innocence lost.

by the way, bitches brew is not my favorite miles davis electric album. i
just can't stop talking about it.
