Monday Morning Aural Sex: 2020-06-15 (Chill the Fuck Out Edition Vol. 5)

Chiiiiilllll the Fuuuuuuckkkkk Ouuuuuuttttt, perverts, pervettes and unicorn toast monsters of all shapes and sizes… Welcome to the 5th installment of the Chill the Fuck Out Edition of Monday Morning Aural Sex! I bet you’re all wondering why I chose to do this type of edition after the past two weeks of Listen or Burn. Let me guess, “Did he lose his fire? Did he lose his soul? Does he not care anymore?” Those are your thoughts, aren’t they? AREN’T THEEEEY?! Well, the answer is no, not at all, and I do indeed still care. As I was delightfully reminded by my friend Jenna’s post on Facebook, rest is part of the fuel we all need to properly get shit done in our lives. By the way Jenna, whether or not you ever hear this, love and miss you! Hope you’re doing well and staying safe out there.

 

Anyway, after the past two weeks of horrendous news stories and multiple viral videos of police brutality a day, I need to rest a bit. I really hope we have a better week in store for us. I don’t know about you, but I watch a lot of political news shows on YouTube, clips from mainstream networks, netshows, podcasts, etc. It can get exhausting hearing about all this shit, and I can only imagine it’s many times more exhausting living through it directly. So, I put together another volume of this as a way to just fuckin’ be able to chill a little bit during the day. I don’t think it’s too much to ask, although during the pandemic that’s still happening and getting worse, all I’ve really been able to do is fuckin’ chill. Still though, I need a little time in my day to not be fuckin’ irate.

 

Anyway, lemme tell ya some shit about the music we’re hearing this week:

 

1. Big shout out to Ana Kasparian of The Young Turks, one of the best progressive news outlets on YouTube in my opinion. She put together a “chill” playlist on Spotify, literally called “chill,” and I enjoyed the whole fuckin’ thing. The worst any track was on that list was a bit mediocre, and there were a few old favorites of mine on there. Massive Attack’s “Teardrop,” “Paradise Circus,” James Blake’s, “Retrograde,” and maybe one other, but everything else was completely new to me. After listening to it all the way through, I came up with somewhere around 16-20 new tracks for this podcast. So, huge thank you to Ana for putting together such an awesome playlist. To all my listeners, check out the Young Turks on YouTube. Give something current a watch and see if you identify with them. I certainly do.

 

2. As I usually do, I tried to organize the tracks in meaningful ways. There are usually multiple stories being told between the lyrics and track titles. Some of it is just random, though. Again, it’s like magnetic poetry. Can’t always use all the words, and there’s no need to anyway. I basically treat every edition like a mixtape I’m making for someone special. In this case, my someone special is anyone willing to listen. Even those who don’t listen, so long as they’re expanding their horizons in some way. Anything else but that seems far too pitifully bland.

 

3. I would guess there’s something like 3 hours of new and/or never-before-played tracks in this edition. Others are older favorites from past editions that perhaps didn’t get the attention they deserve, or just fit this theme so well that it wasn’t right to exclude them. Also, yeah, this edition is just a mouse’s cunt hair under 5 hours. Doesn’t top Volume 4, which is by far the longest podcast I’ve ever done for some reason, but yeah. Lots of fantastic shit to chill us all out this week.

 

4. The last hour and 40 minutes is dedicated to Sunny Rae, a girl I still miss dearly after almost 10 years. Ironically, Sunny has turned out to be one of the biggest reasons for me to stay alive and fight depression wherever I find it. She continues to inspire me, even to this day. If ever I were to believe in blessings and such, I would consider myself blessed to have loved her.

 

Anyway, hope you all yojne your fuckin’ socks off and they come out your nose!!!! Or something… Or just yojne.
