Summer is here, hot in the City. Eating very well, thinking about dance in Montreal and SFrisco. Last year of the 30, birthday most days. Loving it!!!

Friends of Dean Martinez - Wichita Lineman - Summer is here!!!

Amazingly we have snow on the Sierra, it really has been quite the longest Spring I recall, a glorious Spring lacking in work, but full of flower. So much dance too, and now it really is Summer Time, and it feels like my time to ride off into the Sunset as ever. First Alcazaba for 4 weeks, its just the highest mountain village in Spain, very little signal that side, but plenty of entertainment. Later Vitoria-Gasteiz, for a feed and monster descanso, 3 weeks of Fishing, camping frolic. Afterwards, a short skip and hop to England, old London Town, Manchester, topped off with a postre of Canada and San Francisco, ARRRRGh, dancing and Swinging for sure. More than a mouthful that lot, so to settle it all down, I am getting on well with this super chill version of Wichita Lineman. The Friends of Dean Martinez, are a friend of mine...See you on top of a mountain or just Swinging under the Golden Gate Bridge, on the Summer Breeze, yes please. ARRRRGH!!! . 
When I discovered Faultline, I jumped on, and was first to release, the best track on our album Welcome To Execrate. That was back in 1998, amazingly, that was 15 years, ago. At that time, I brought this recording to ears of many. Way, before it was released on the Leaf label. At that time, it felt like a whole world of possibilities, this music was standing, so strong, anything then could occur. Since that time, I have lived, many, music, and moments, but this does now, sound, still. Clearly encrusted, and frozen, locked into it´s place. On the other side the possibilities, all that were, have shifted, like grains of sand, they have drifted into a vent, somehow lost. Chances, that got closer, then went! Nice to remind myself of that sometimes, Music is wonderful for re-jogging memory.
