daniel of 23-yrs, wait-listed in California’s central valley. makes music with a revolving (not always revolting) group of noisemakers, frequently called Troubled By Insects—this is about those sounds and noise; also, infrequently related visuals, moving images, and words…and all sorts of nonsense otherwise…web-accoutrements, et cetera, whatever, amen. for the Internet is such an interesting and magical place.

&lt;p&gt;A full rainbow over Reykjavik this morning.&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;I’ve taken to using a small wide-angle lens (made for a camcorder) which i tilt in front of my cellphone camera to distort in the fish-eye tradition. No comments yet from people passing me on the street. Only stares.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;/blockquote&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;THE TWO-HEADED BOY MUSIC LISTS for 2009&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Over the next two months, I have the honor of presenting a collaborative effort to round up all things music that occurred in 2009. My good friend Truitt will be co-hosting a couple of regular entries here (as he toils to complete his second novel for &lt;a href="http://www.nanowrimo.org/" target="_blank"&gt;NaNoWriMo&lt;/a&gt;), which will include 20 tracks selected for &lt;i&gt;The TBI/THB 2009 Mixtape&lt;/i&gt;, as well as &lt;i&gt;The TBI/THB Top 40 Albums of 2009&lt;/i&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Anyway, I hope you all stick around and bring your own voice to the discussion. I’m truly excited to present all of this to you soon.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;To kick things off, here’s a track that I originally had included on the &lt;i&gt;2009 Mixtape&lt;/i&gt;, but present here as a introduction to this new feature.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;David Bazan - “Hard To Be”&lt;br/&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;i&gt;Most Personally Unsettling Track of 2009&lt;br/&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;blockquote&gt;[Daniel] This song kills me… having graduated with my bachelor’s degree back last December, the struggles of faith, family, and “worldly intelligence” resound with too much that has occurred to me in the last year. Parts of my family fit the bill of the family described in the final verse of this song with harrowing accuracy, and the keyboard melody provides a perfect mirror to the spiritual struggle the song’s protagonist describes. &lt;br/&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;i&gt;“While [her photographs] record their subjects in sharply objective archival detail, Barth’s images of interiors, buildings, suburban roads or natural environments are often out of focus, cropped and apparently empty of any foreground subject. What emerges from this reduction and abstraction of subject matter is a body of photographs evocative of great moments in the history of painting, or of a cinematic ambiance.” &lt;/i&gt;[&lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Uta_Barth" target="_blank"&gt;via&lt;/a&gt;]&lt;/p&gt;</description><link>http://troubledbyinsects.tumblr.com/post/231041223</link><guid>http://troubledbyinsects.tumblr.com/post/231041223</guid><pubDate>Mon, 02 Nov 2009 11:58:13 -0800</pubDate></item></channel></rss>
