She

There was once a girl, she was happy, but she cried.

She flew, but she couldn't stand.

She laughed, but she couldn't smile.

She was smart, but she couldn't think.

She could swim, but she'd drown.

She could fight, but she was weak.

She could talk, but she couldn't speak.

She could look, but she couldn't see.

She could sleep, but she was awake.

That's when she realized...

''Everything is fake. Who am I? Who are you? What is life?''

Mt Fog began as a solo project for classically trained Carolyn B. but has lately expanded to include drummer Andy Sells (Afrocop, Select Level, FCS North) and bassist Casey Rosebridge (Swanderer, Crazy Eyes). Jennifer Kelly found the expanded palette a revelation on Mt Fog’s second album, Ultraviolet Heart Machine writing, “There is something magic about the way her volatile, fluttering vocal phrasings interact with the thump of bass, here played by Casey Rosebridge, or how the organic twining of her melodies sound braced by the thud of real, organic drums.”  Here are some of the albums on heavy play during the recording process.

Japan — Gentlemen Take Polaroids

I love the soundscapes and the fretless bass squiggles, and how they create this moody, mossy universe for David Sylvian’s voice.  Favorite track:  “My New Career”

Satisfact — The Third Meeting at the Third Counter

High energy, melodic at times and perfectly noisy, fueling me as I ride public transit in Seattle.

FCS North — Vocabulary

Incredible atmospheres, feels like the water of the Puget Sound washing over you. Andy Sells (drummer of Mt Fog) is a member of FCS North, active from 1998-2008 and very influential.

Talking Heads — More Songs about Buildings and Food

I saw David Byrne once at a Balkan music festival in Brooklyn, years and years ago; my friends were freaking out, and that’s how I learned about the Talking Heads. I absolutely love how David Byrne uses his voice and the particular dance-ability of this album.

Lizzy Mercier Descloux — Press Color

I discovered Lizzy Mercier Descloux this past year. What a band! And a voice with such cool attitude.

Sadhappy — Depth Charge

Seattle-area saxophonist Skerik was in this trio in the 1990s, and it’s just so funky and ridiculous at times.

Benjamin Britten — A Midsummer Night’s Dream (London Symphony 1960 recording)

My family listened to this all the time when I was a kid, as my sisters were in a production in the late 1980s. This recording is the original and so so good. I love Puck’s talk-singing. The orchestra breathes and sighs. A composition that is so synergistic between the sound and the forest setting.

Sugarcubes — Stick Around for Joy

I didn’t get into Bjork’s earlier project until about a year ago and this CD was my most listened to CD since I got it last summer. This is a band of elves, and they sound like they’re playing at the most fun festival.

The Sea and Cake — The Fawn

A reminder that simple and chill can also be emotional and powerful in its understated-ness.

Gateway — Gateway 2

When I listen to this, I am reminded that music is pure magic, that musicians cast spells with the sounds we create. SO SPECIAL.   You must listen to the whole thing but if not start with the beginning, “opening.”

reblog w the song lyrics in your head NOW. either stuck in yr head or what yr listening to

[azumasoroshi]

one trope i will never get tired of is someone cooking food for another person

and like it doesnt have to be a serious mood, they can be like joking around or in some heavy awkward silence

but the second the second person eats the food they just start CRYING and the first person is like wait shit are you okay is it bad or something (or lmao was it too hot/spicy) and the second person is like NO ITS NOT BAD IT’S REALLY GOOD IDK WHY IM CRYING BUT THIS REMINDS ME OF THIS VERY SPECIFIC [PROBABLY CHILDHOOD] MEMORY AND ITS MAKING ME REALLY SADHAPPY AND NOSTALGIC

and first person can either be like oh im glad and they just eat in now-comfortable silence or they can be like oh do you wanna tell me about that experience and they talk about it

either way it just aughgjghhjf it destroys me every time i love when food or cooking is used to evoke emotion because it’s such an inherent and universal act of care either for yourself or whoever you’re cooking for, ranging from ‘i dont wanna die yet’ to ‘i should make life a bit less miserable for myself right now’ to ’i want to treat myself’ to ‘i want to make you happy in the same way food makes me happy’ to ‘iwill go the extra mile for you because you deserve it’ amongst other stuff

as much as i love the angst potential for younger brother rowan, older brother rowan makes me so sadhappy… (and i can also write past fics with it..)

[melissa-titanium]

(wbk au) in short jake n jane VANISHED into the woods after getting bitten because they were afraid dirk and roxy would kill them OR get killed themselves for inevitably sticking their necks out for them so they RAN OFF INTO THE WOODS ! and roxy and dirk thought they died and searched for them for YEARS years years. but never found them .. :(

THEN. when the beta kids all become friends , dirk and roxy r suspicios one day on where their adopted brother and sister respectively go every other day, track them down.. and SHA. BOOM. ALPHA KIDS REUNION. its probably super intense like roxy shoots jane bc jane is a WOOFER in the moment , so rose retaliates and attacks roxy without thinking Which turns ROXY on accident , but then everyone calms the fuck down (in a sense) once jane turns back 2 her human self after being shot i think. (dirk gets turned later, he's a specil case c: but for now hes a normie. sorry dirk) but its silly and theyre all crying and sadhappy and just relieved to see each other again after so long.

u ever jus get that overwhelming sadhappy when u look at ur fri nds???????vvvBECQUSE I DO

[dyslectic-npc]

Was watching a vidio by Onetopic of wher he was readingn posts, a post came up about somebody feeling happy to see a transpersone with gray hair becous its shows that now trans people get to live that long finaly

I don’t know what came over me but i cant stop crying, I always joke about growing old but for some resone it has always just been that, a joke. The thought that I can get to grow old and still be me, its overwhelming.

Its never been something that has been a option in my head, I’m having a hard time putting this in to words. I’m SadHappy

[schizodiaries]

do you ever read through old journals or look through old pictures and start to feel sadhappy?

i swear its bad luck or no luck at all. someone is out to get me and here is proof: first i get a $15 parking ticket at school for parking in a staff spot. second i get the $100 speeding ticket. then on thursday my car got towed from school for parking in front of einstein bagels for my class. $150. total cost of bullshit in the last two weeks? $265. sucks bad. the underoath coheed show was amazing. both of them were so good it gave me chills and butterflies at times. we started to record a new song this weekend so hopefully that will be done pretty quick. i've been getting sadhappy when i listen to some of my favorite records from the past two years. certain songs remind me of specific times..and i can remember things in such detail.. last year this time was mae and the new blink. and trying to stay happy when its so cold and depressing outside.

summertime got me thinking back to when you were mine

[terryble007]

Omg this reminds me so much of the two headed calf comic /sadhappy tears of joy

Here, in this moment.
