Italo Calvino: Invisible Cities

And Polo said: "The inferno of the living is not something that will be; if there is one, it is what is already here, the inferno where we live every day, that we form by being together. There are two ways to escape suffering it. The first is easy for many: accept the inferno and become such a part of it that you can no longer see it. The second is risky and demands constant vigilance and apprehension: seek and learn to recognize who and what, in the midst of the inferno, are not inferno, then make them endure, give them space."

You must change the people you are speaking to so that you appear, to yourself, to be still alive.

"And where are all the new people I have come here to meet? I have met only a lost child, dressed in rags, real rags, holding an iron hook attached to a fifty-foot rope. I said, "What is that for?" The child said nothing, placed the hook quietly on the floor at my feet, opened a bottle and swallowed twenty aspirin. Is six too young for a suicide attempt? We fed her milk, induced vomiting, the police arrived within minutes. When one has spoken a lot one has already used up all of the ideas one has. You must change the people you are speaking to so that you appear, to yourself, to be still alive." - Barthelme: The Party

Salem- Raver Stay Wif Me Mix

Reading the various ways that people attempt to both categorize and describe this mix is almost as good as listening to it yourself. Prepare to get MIND//BLOWN.


"There’s no real arc to the mix and it feels like getting ambushed and punched in the brain by a walking bottle of codeine at 5am. It is surreal and uncomfortable and even if we never listen to it again, we’re glad it exists." -Fader

"If you, like me, are better off alone, plan to stay at home and drink by yourself instead of partying with the other cool kids in some fancy club tonight then this is the soundtrack you need. The tapedeck does def. not receive enough electricity and the world is dragged out of its mind." -Discobelle


"...as expected, features a panic-attack-inducing combination of sounds, from nightmarish pitch-shifted pop and hip-hop to screwed versions of Darude's "Sandstorm" and Alice Deejay's "Better Off Alone." We're hard pressed to think of anything much more frightening." -xlr8r
