I made a mistake this weekend. I invested in The Julius Eastman Memory Depot (2013) by Jace Clayton a.k.a. DJ/rupture when I what really wanted was Teenage & Torture (2011) by Shilpa Ray & Her Happy Hookers. Don't get me wrong. The Jace Clayton jiggering with piano work Evil Nigger (1979) and Gay Guerrilla (1980) of gay black composer Julius Eastman is tremendous, and I have been listening to it non-stop for the last several days. But I happened to hear "Genie's Drugs" off a 2011 Knitting Factory Records sampler on the train into work on Monday morning and it resonated perfectly. The real hoodoo sonic narcotic perfect for the first Monday of winter. Another year draws to a close.
