Less Is Moor, Zebra Katz (2020)

Zebra Katz was ahead of his time to such an extent that he required others – namely, producers – to catch up before his visions could be fully realised. Plenty of his 2013 debut mixtape DRKLNG contained elements of what he would achieve more completely on Less is Moor, seven-odd years later, but it was fuller, making use of production trends in post-industrial and deconstructed club. So far, this is Katz’s defining work.

Top 5 Sambucky Fics Self Rec Game

Thanks for the tag @jemgirl86

i. Here I Go, Don't Let Me Go

M, 16,395 Words

This is my longest, and probably my most popular one (aside from that smut one that's staying anon until I ever sort out the jank in the first chapter) and I think it's pretty good, if intense. Rated M for heavy themes/mental health stuff. We've got bisexuality, we've got angst, we've got Kate Bush. All the good things.

ii. You��re Moments Ago, but Seconds Away

T, 1,868 words

This is the only short one on this list (most of my fics are short scenes tbh). It's a "Sam finds Bucky before civil war" fic, lighthearted and fun. This time with a Gossip song (the Fred Falke remix of Heavy Cross).

iii. Don't Help Them to Bury the Light

M, 3,730 words

Another Sam-centric character study-ish thing, but with added superpowers. This one is even darker I think. A lot of angst, a lot of mental health stuff, again the M rating is for that. But also a happy ending. Comes with a Pink Floyd song (Hey You). It also features my most enduring Sam headcanon: regional gymnastics champion 1992, gold in the all-rounder and the pommel horse.

iv. I'm Inside Your Head, and You Don't Know Me

T, 5,058 words

Samsharon and Sambucky and jealousy? Push and pull at the boundaries? Betrayal hurting less than condescension? Non-linear storytelling? CIA shenanigans? If you like the sound of these themes, then I have a fic for you! Seriously thought I did re-read this recently and I had a great time so there is definitely an audience for it... even if it's just me. This time it's The Apprentice by Gorillaz.

v. Ready for the Real Thing

T, 5,953 words

This is the one I just wrote! It's inspired by the What If episode with Sam... by which I mean I hated that episode but I wanted Sam to fight some kaiju. I tried really hard to do a proper sci fi short story here, with a character-focused throughline. Again, this is Sam with his superpowers, but a generally lighter tone despite the divorce-era angst. Title is from Brilliant Mind by Furniture... the title's kinda wevs but the vibe of the song fits.
