Ο κιθαρίστας των Lamb Of God, Mark Morton, και ο frontman των Clutch, Neil Fallon, ένωσαν τις δυνάμεις τους για να αποδώσουν με τον δικό τους τρόπο το κλασικό κομμάτι των Lynyrd Skynyrd “The Needle And The Spoon”.

Making my way back from the madness. Shifting my thoughts from the blackness. And the sadness, but the fact is I'm swinging through life like a clenched fist. Fuck sanity, I wanna bleed. Can't kill the pain, it's everything. It's all I feel, It's what I breathe, turn the hate I breed into what I need.

(...)

So black out and hide behind the lines, keep staring down the sun and hope the light will finally blind your eyes from seeing. Cross off the days gone by.

I don’t know who needs to hear this, but Kingsman: The Secret Service turns ten years old in 2024.

We should organise some sort of birthday event. I feel old.

"It is Rothko's scale that removes any argument over the proportions of one area to another, or over its degree of symmetry or asymmetry. The sum of the parts does not equal the whole; rather, scale is discovered and contained as an image. It is not form that floats the painting, but Rothko's finding that particular scale which suspends all proportions in equilibrium." - Morton Feldman

It's not Rothko himself, but this is a rare picture that you rarely see. Feldman was good friends with Rothko and the music for the chapel is excellent.

Hamish Mycroft aka Merlin

[thisiswhereikeepdcthings]

To clarify: This is not a case of both universes existing simultaneously. This is an inexplicably-dropped-into-an-entirely-different-universe crossover.

This is not necessarily about which is your favorite character out of these (although it could be. Who am I to tell you what to do here). This is about what would be the most chaotic, the most cursed, the most barely-justifiable plot-wise. The worst, if you will.

And, since there are far more than ten characters I can imagine dumping into the world of Batman and the Justice League with no valid reasoning, there will be more.

A masterlist? On my blog?

Dreams come true •Kingsman Merlin•

Word count: 400

Type: Fluff

Warning: Non

Paring: Merlin × Oc (description is kept limited name can easily be changed when reading)

Summary: Merlin goes to find Maya when she sneaks away from from a party to think to herself

"So I've lost Morgana," Eggsy announced as he walked up to Harry and Merlin at the Kingsman gala.

"She's probably hiding away," Merlin said handing his drink off to Harry leaving the large hall.

The corridors were quieter than the hall, Merlin checked where he usually found, Maya, Agent Morgana, when she decided to hide away and think, the gardens.

He went out to the garden found her sat on a low wall in the gardens, a beer bottle next to her, dressed in a bright red formal dress.

"You're a long way from the party, princess," he said.

Maya looked up from the ground smilling. "Yeah, lots people, lot of noise, you know what I'm like," she said.

"Understandable," he said "What were you thinking about?" He asked sitting next to her.

"Do you ever think that your dreams could come true?" She asked as she swung her legs.

"No," he replied quickly. "Why? Do you?"

Maya frowned slightly. "No. . .Just wondering" she said, Merlin nodded. "If you could have a dream come true? What would it be?" She asked.

"Honestly? This is my dream, I've never thought of anything else," he shrugged.

"Absolutely nothing? You've only ever wanted to be a quartermaster? You've got no dream?" She asked.

"Maybe a nice healthy marriage, a dog but yeah Kingsman is all I've ever known, next to the army and Kingsman has a much nicer uniform" he said.

"Do you have other dreams?" He asked her.

"Mhm, I guess, it's dumb." she shrugged.

"What is it?"

"I want to live out in the country, nice little house, a couple of dogs maybe, married to a nice guy, work in a little family bakery," she said.

"I guess a healthy relationship is a dream for every Kingsman," Merlin said taking her drink from the side stealing a sip.

"Expect Eggsy, he got it " Maya shrugged.

"So tell me, who is this perfect dream husband?" He asked.

Maya took her drink back from Merlin taking a long drink of it. "Well he's tall, he dresses well, a little older then me with glasses, bald and a rich thick Scottish accent," she said.

Merlin looked at her surprised. "Me?" He asked.

"Mhm, you occupy alot of my unconscious mind apparently," she said.

Merlin slid off the wall coming to stand infront of her, his hands rested on either side of her.

"What other dreams have I been involved in?" He asked lowly. "A lot of them," she mumbled "Maybe dreams do come true," he said tipping her chin to look up at him, kissing her gently.

Carimbó, Arraial de Nazaré, d. 1970 / RTP

"(…) observação digna de registro no carimbó é a que revela o caráter de canto de trabalho. A cor local também extremamente viva, representada pelos elementos naturais, produtos da flora, da fauna, nome de pessoas, acidentes geográficos, locativos, etc. Uma ambiência total.

Toda criatura humana necessita de uma periódica evasão do espírito. Sente necessidade de compensar as horas de trabalho com horas de lazer. A lúdica para o povo é talvez o momento supremo do lazer. Pagodes, arrasta-pés, furdunços, ali, como em toda parte, significam o melhor meio de fuga, o melhor derivativo das canseiras e monotonias da vida precária e difícil. Gente do trabalho, ora no campo, ora nas atividades pastoris; ora nos roçados, nas lides da agricultura; ora nos barcos de pesca - o caboclo paraense anonimamente se liga ao complexo da economia regional e contribuiu, mão-de-obra ativa, para a criação de riquezas (…)

Mas o tempo de folgar é sagrado. E é nesse tempo que caboclo se mete nos 'pagodes' e nos 'arrasta-pés'. Nem sempre é a cachaça a grande motivadora do lazer, como reclamavam os cronistas dos primeiros tempos coloniais. A necessidade de divertir-se cria as formas mais simples do relacionamento social, as brincadeiras, as danças, as devoções, tudo enfim que contribui para descarregar as tensões daquela vida difícil e áspera, ajudando-se a descontrair-se (…)

Tó Teixeira, em 1958, deu-nos o instrumental de carimbó em Belém no início do século: 'o carimbó não era acompanhado com música e sim com dois carimbós, dois homens sentados em cima, muito cadenciados, um caracaxá, um reco-reco e duas ou mais cantoras e coro'".

----------------------------------

Vicente Salles & Marena Salles ~ Carimbó: trabalho e lazer do caboclo. Em: Revista Brasileira de Folclore, set/dez 1969 (citado no Inventário Cultural e Turístico do Salgado, 1987)

Em trabalho de campo em Belém e na região do Salgado paraense, Morton Marks confirma o texto de Vicente e Marena:

"Esta dança tem claramente origens afro-brasileiras e é mantida por caboclos em áreas que coincidem com zonas que eram antigamente trabalhadas por escravos negros.

O carimbo é um bom exemplo de uma tradição musical afro-brasileira ou "negra" assimilada em um ambiente mestiço (caboclo).

(...) Seja qual for a origem africana do carimbó, ele é encontrado principalmente hoje acompanhando as danças recreativas das comunidades caboclo a leste de Belém. A forma da dança é geralmente um círculo de dançarinos e dançarinas, apresentando trabalho solo de cada casal por vez. Os estilos de dança exibem uma ampla gama de influências culturais, desde o estalar de dedos derivado da Ibéria no estilo castanhola, até danças imitativas de origem indígena".

Marks fez o registro sonoro acima de um grupo de carimbó em Vigia e acrescentou o seguinte:

"Nesta gravação, o conjunto consiste em: onça, três tambores graduados, tocados com as mãos e com os músicos sentados no tambores, cavaquinho, banjo, raspador, chocalho, ganzá, uma flauta transversal (...) O nome do grupo é Conjunto Tapayoara, liderado por Santana Miranda. A maioria dos músicos são pescadores, e eles tocam em bailes no Salgado. O carimbó é especialmente popular em junho (as festas juninas), e em novembro e dezembro".
