Really now


Down tempo flying saucer hub cap analog drive across Canada in an old wagon of hope with wheel wells like Mars and loose tape distortion street beat bringing me back to younger days watching Rick Hansen on the CBC churning his wheels with outsize arms across the world and Terry Fox and Expo 86 and French Canadian Sesame Street and that guy - I don't who he was - who would take you to all his childhood neighbourhood haunts, empty playgrounds, clean sward and chain link, leap up on something very casually and very freely, and say this is where I used to play...etc. simple and seared in my mind. You will not capture Sasquatch on digital. Don't even try.
