sometimes it's helpful to remember that a significant portion of the US government's support of Israel is because they believe it'll trigger the rapture and the end times. sometimes it's not helpful to remember this because it's obviously insane and these people are in charge of things

an unbelievable amount of gullible rubes willing to accept maybe Israel didn't blow up a hospital.

my dad is Santa Claus, and sometimes some of that nurture comes through when I grab my belly and laugh. my wife does not enjoy it that little family quirk though.

one of the things I really like about exploring Yugoslav synth and disco, is that you feel the tension of country that is about to rip itself apart. So much of the good stuff is in the backend of a track where everything breaks down into nonsense

hard to fit them together for a set though

Šizike one of the classics of early 80's Belgrade. Of course DATA is contributing, because it's 1984 in Belgrade, and DATA have all the good synths.

sweet cover art too
