Malcolm X Park by Unrest
For some reason, Disko Magic had been stuck in my head for the last few days. I had to dig through the shelf of lps to find it, but I dug up Malcolm X Park and turned the stereo up to a ridiculous volume. I think my favorite way to listen to records is that way - seated on the floor in front of the stereo with the speakers blaring from behind me. I hopped around the record, listening to Christina and Can’t Stand Still. However, I kept dropping the needle at the start of Disko Magic. The growling guitar intro, the white boy funk shouts, the lyric “Dancin’ and drinkin’ is my life” - I just needed those things to soak into my brain. I’m not sure when, but that track will be heard in Richmond. I’m just not certain of the means of transmission.
In the meanwhile, I find I’m spending too much time listening to my old playlists and not grabbing new music. With a gazillion new releases this week, I suspect that will change. But for now, I’m stuck in a strange nostalgia for 2005.
