Winterkeep + peace ambient soliloquy from the past version of me, DTES

File under: evocative empathy, breaking through the zombie façade, and yes peace

I have so much to say but at the risk of not getting to it, desperate for you to hear this new creation in which the magical Winterkeep – on an archipelago far from mine – unearths a long distant version of myself (which takes me right back to sitting at the center at the edge of Gastown Vancouver so many years ago)

*I’m awkwardly pasting the words I use to share this as I’m in the back of a moving vehicle, descending from a high plateau back to our cottage, whispering in the backseat next to my sleeping son while my darling wife chats with her sensational piano playing friend in the front seat in their delightful Japanese*

Ambient post-rock sound music artist winterkeep applies his glorious musical collages to my messages of peace, peace peace, spieled in somehow (speaking to this version of myself) and eloquent spontaneous earnest way while the various countries were just starting on a whole round of destruction and war which seems so distant but repeating itself over and over again

please listen and thank you to winterkeep for always surprising both contemporary, distant and likely future versions of myself

And yes, peace

PS there are a few other winter keep reimagining of my spoken word throughout this archive on appropriate channels including:

we correspond by postcards: both audio and paper – eventually we’ll succumb to Telephony
