That Feeling

One of my favourite movies ever is Paris, Texas. It's expansive and haunting and its simple emotions are in plain sight of all who watch it. Never mind that someone as wizened and gnarled as Harry Dean Stanton could have gotten even close to the gorgeous Nastassja Kinski, it's a beautiful story. The dialogue in the peep show scene is a real heartbreaker, and I've always wanted to make a track about it. So I did. Here's the result

A Straw for the Drowning Man

This is my latest track under my Dalston Pils handle. A nice, late night slice of floaty, dreamy house. That surly looking geezer in the pic is Joseph Conrad who wrote some amazing novels, perhaps most notably Heart of Darkness. Though the title for this track is taken from one of his most accomplished books, Lord Jim, which also includes this amazing line: The desire of peace waxes stronger as hope declines, till at last it conquers the very desire of life. Yeah, anyways, have a listen.

New track from Dalston Pils

I've got a veritable swagbag of different aliases I've used for writing and such. The latest is a new musical alias, Dalston Pils - came to me after seeing some staggering geezer trying to stuff fake money down a girl's jeans at a rave, all the while cradling a precious can of Holsten Pils. Anyways I digress, here's the latest track I've made under that moniker, it's called Exabachay, taken from one of my favourite movies of all time, Dead Man.
