For reasons a little too complicated to fully explain I lost my passport just minutes before my plane to London was supposed to depart. After the initial shock and will shattering realization, I started calling people. Virgin Alantic, my girlfriend, my friend who I am staying with here in Brooklyn and passport offices that are closed until Tuesday due to a needless holiday. Things will work out despite being literally stuck in a smoggy, humid place where I can’t prove who I am. With that said (and the implied stress) I could never be happier.

I am always dehydrated here and am usually hungry. Between walking half miles at a time, drinking until four and meeting more new people then I can keep up with there is a toll on your body and spirit in NYC- locals call it “the hustle”, the rewarding but taxing exsperience of living in the greatest city on earth. A city where you can get anything you want at any time but must pay heavily for the privledge. Between sixteen hundred as decent rent for one or two people, packs of cigarettes at ten dollars and drinks that can reach 12$ at nice places you must always be running to keep up.

The reward is that you live or visit among some of the most motivated, multi ethnic and hip people I have ever seen. One night I am partying in the VIP at a mega club
where we were some of the only white people, the next Cosmo Baker tear a small bar up, the next it is live music under a huge art installation down a hallway behind a bar in Williamsburg. Everywhere I go people are genuinely excited to meet me and talk about their city (the pride is overwhelming) and the hipsters here take me back with their extreme positivity, a huge contrast to the cynical Portland I am used to. There is hope for technology here, hope for global trade and urban environments, a huge aspect of sexual politics and a constant visual extreme playing behind every street.

NYC ( I will upload my pictures soon I hope)
I get off the plane with four hours of sleep and the curse of being six two still straining my neck. After some initial confusion I find the correct way to escape the giant JFK, the correct way to get a metro card and after a few mishaps- the correct way to get downtown.

My initial reactions of the subway is of awe- I love the huge roar of a train approaching, the feel of the wind and the smell, somewhere between motor oil and humanity. I love the way the train moves, sliding from side to side, blasting through dark tunnels speckled with bright blue and red lights and the quick glances of graffiti and the crumbling concrete.

In just got this brand new song from the charming Mr. Solovox. I have been following the exploits of Carl for a few years now, usually catching amazing early morning sets at parties such as Howl. Here is a brand new track for your listening pleasure and here is a flyer for the next big 2410 party where you can see Solovox and March Fourth Marching band throw down for a Mobile Groove Bomb benefit.
