MuFi music challenge Wildcar, inspired by DaveJay's most recent post. Clocked random, found a comment, made a song. The comment is this one: It's saying that African tragedy gets measured by a different yardstick. Way over here in the land of Paris and Lindsey, it does.

I'm getting weird Aural Times flashbacks listening to all of these. It's weird how there's a kind of palpable "this is found prose" feel to these, which is something I got really used to back when I was doing that project but never really thought about in terms of listening to other people. It's very neat seeing it coming from outside.

I love it when I click one of your songs and suddenly an old gramophone recording comes out of the speakers. It's the same feeling I get when I watch old Buster Keaton films on my laptop. Excellent. Ba da dada dee dee ditty...
