THE UNFORGETTABLE SEASON

"This is what I thought you said...talking on the phone! " Two years ago when I quit my job and began my career at doing whatever I want, a friend told me that it would be worth my while. I knew that already, but living off your savings can be a bit weird. I recall last summer biking all around Manhattan looking at creeps and babes. It was fantastic! Then I went to LA and started driving all- over the city. I began to hang out on 3rd street by the Whole Foods market just to pick up babes. Then I'd go to Scout and hang out with their shopgirl, Angela- some hipster who should've been a yuppie. I ended back in New York after a few months of that and began doing the same S**t allover again.
Today I'm riding through SoHo and hanging out in A.P.C. talking to the Shop Girls. I think I might start working there for a month. If I do, Ill let y'all know (How very Texan of me). In the Meantime, Let's give a hoo-rah for VAN PELT's performance at SXSW!!! And Let's spread the enthusiasm for VIOLENS who will be playing at the American Apparel's Party- Sup Glen!

Cassettes Won't Listen- Freeze and Explode from album Small Time Machine
Okkervil River- Lost Coastlines- from the album The Stand-In's
And my old band Nightslashers(post-Chris Otto & Pre-Schieles)- James, I don't Care- Letters -Zshare

TOO RETARDED TO BE NORMAL

I spent yesterday's brunch circling the "want" ads in the Sunday "Times." I was about three Bloody Mary's, a couple pints, and 3 whiskey shots in when a familaiar face was poking at my back.  It was a friend  of mind from LA who has been in NYC as long as I recall being "Someone Special." I was happy to see her and it was sad at the same time because I was drunk. And drunk people never know how to emote happy faces, just drunk blank ones.  I tried to feign sobriety but I probably looked crazy as a FOX!  Her birthday's coming  soon as well as this other guy-friend I know from poland.  March Birthday's rule, but only if you're an airies!  Especially Airies who are girls...It's like they get all "Catnipped" and lose their knickers allover town- Brilliant!  

Anyways, I never properly said "bye" to my friend at brunch. It was more like, "I gotta go and meet my design assistant- Peace out!"  I'm sure she was busy as well, yeah?  So what I'm trying to say in this Salt-covered post is:  I'm so glad to see you, Nat!

Later on I sobered down and watched Fight Club.  I thought about this blog and then I thought about all the people who make me smile and laugh(happiness).  I thought about Ariel Pink and little dwarfs with cool colorful knit hats.  I imagined getting divorced, having bi-polar lovers become successful actresses, and never paying taxes- Sublime!

The End.

p.s. any young girls wanna come over and snuggle with "the captain?" We can listen to my michael jackson records...or we can do some finger painting on each other.

Music...and really goood salty music- Kosher, totally kosher!

Los Microwaves- Coast to Coast from album Life after Breakfast (fuggin' rare...thank me you saltines that I ever found this for you!)

NEW ORDER- Dream Attack- Private Factory 12" release 1988 [dedicated to Natalie/Igor]

and my German favorite! Die Doraus und Die Marinas- Tulpen und narzissen

Ariel Pink- Life in LA- from album Ariel Pink's Haunted Grafitti (for my boy, Jesse)

DON'T PLAY WITH KNIVES...BABIES ARE AROUND

There's so much I can say about the image above but I won't say much because her "I have a 15 year-old face" says it all! She's really saying, (Oliver Twist voice, but you know, Asian) "Please, sir, give me some Salty Soup and a Bon Jovi T-shirt!?"
Anyways, the images are that of a New York City "man about town"/photographer, Antwan Duncan. He has that website ithinkyoureswell.com
Also, I hear he's a biologist and holds down a gig with Interview magazine- Go Antwan Go!
But we at SALTY FOUR (S4) don't really care about any of that...All we care about is ourselves and this is why you read our Salty Postings- You also only care about yourself! Right? Right. So here, let's spread our selfish-ness with some mellow tunes from the Magnetic Fields and Tony Ocean's favorite German artist for intercourse, Dolle Jolle!

Magnetic Fields- Absolutely Cukoo (Right Lick that S**t)

Dolle Jolle- Balearic Incarnation (Right Lick that S**t) Todd Terje Remix on Permanent Vacation Records

Dolle Jolle- Balearic Incarnation Lp version ( You know what to do). Buy it on Beatport.com

Good Guy Mikesh & Filburt- Someone Told Me (Permannet Vacation; Right Lick to dwnld)

p.s. "Pour Out some Salt" to Amazing Baby(Will, Matt, Simon, DD, Rob) and X-TRA SALT to my boy Don Devore on the Europe tour!! See Y'all in Texas!
