Darian Scatton: I recorded this Still Sweet song a while back with Alison Stout and my old bandmates Benjamin Schurr and Gabrielle Smith. It was a really collaborative process and I think it has turned out to be one of my most successful recordings, I'm really psyched to share it with you, hope you enjoy! BLIGHT. Records: A while back Darian Scatton of Hallowed Bells recorded a few tracks at the BLIGHT. House under his project Still Sweet. This track is a wonderful track for the snowbound days to come.

When I watch these interview I always get this incredible sense that I’m listening to a like mind and and kindred spirit. I’ve used this interview more than once to speak for me/and speak toward me; hoping the listener might glean something of me better than I could impress on them myself. The essays of David Foster Wallace are the only thing I count on more.
“heroes” on “heroes” Bowie on Bowie, 1.
Before Bowie changed my life with his music, he changed my life with an interview, an NPR interview I heard in the car radio in September 2003 on my way to see Broken Social Scene with my friend Nick, I was 15 and I haven’t been the same since
GROSS: Now, before you became David Bowie - when you were working - when you were playing with other bands before forming your own, did you do the denim thing?
BOWIE: I was ...
GROSS: You know, did you wear T-shirt and jeans on stage?
BOWIE: Very, very rarely, actually. No, it wasn't really something that I - because I never believed it. It always felt like you were trying too hard to look like the audience or something. That whole thing about the artistic integrity, which, of course, I've never bought into - with any artist. It's just not a real thing.
GROSS: So let me stop and see if I have this right - wearing a T-shirt and jeans seem phony to you ?
BOWIE: Yeah.
GROSS: But wearing mascara and eye makeup seem right.
BOWIE: I didn't say that wearing a glamorization of the rock artist was any truer from the other thing...
GROSS: Oh, OK, right. It's artifice...
BOWIE: They're both...
GROSS: ...But it's an artifice that you believe in.
BOWIE: ...It's all artifice.
GROSS: Yeah, right. OK, got it. Yeah.
BOWIE: I think my main point would be would be is that the T-shirt and denims thing, in my mind, was also an artifice.

I've been sittin' shiva with this simple little vigil since I heard the news. There aren't many sites more constant and definitive in my life than this view of the keys.
So when I asked myself how I should commemorate one of my greatest heroes, the answer came immediately: Put him where I have no chance of missing him, put him in the place where I put my head and my heart, which is right where he belongs

Eric ‘Doc’ Hammer on Bowie
writer/director/ voice-actor/ Story-boarder/ Character-costume-set-designer/ Editor and pretty much one half of nearly everything on the incredibly ‘Venture Bros.’
I guess the one thing that I’ve been pacifying myself with is that there is a living version of Bowie that we can’t touch. You know what I mean?
He’s more than a human being; he’s this thing that we’ve all had since childhood. None of us got to call him up and have lunch with him and stuff. And that hasn’t changed. That will never change. The music and what he did to style and our hearts is untouchable. There’s so much of David Bowie that lives in us that never goes away. I think his influence that is immortality. He lives in anybody who has a fucking idea about culture. At least we have that, and we always have that. He gave that to all of us.
So, no he won’t be adding to that anymore. But I am forever filled with so much Bowie that — I’m honestly stymied. I’ve been stymied since I found out. I just don’t know what to do with the information. And I’ve been fully aware of it that we’re not always going to live in a world with Bowie. It was kind of obvious that he wasn’t doing well for a long time, but it’s stymieing. Losing Leonard Nimoy and David Bowie were huge events in my life. It really is that kind of loss of the father that I chose. You know? These people raised me. I would be a different person without them being in the world. So, it’s hard. It’s hard. But I can pacify myself knowing that what he’s done is there. He will be affecting lives of people who have never heard his name, will eventually learn his name and have their lives changed by David Bowie. Still.
I don’t know if it will ever feel real because his influence is so much larger than we could understand. Like, I’m saying, some 14-year-old next year is going to find out about David Bowie, and his world is going to change just like ours did. And we never got to sit with David Bowie and have him as a man affect our lives. We just had his deeds and the promise of Bowie.
He’ll be affecting us for a very long time to come. He’s part of the pantheon, you know? Ultimately, I feel bad for his kids and Iman, and the people who knew him, and had the luck to have them touch their personal lives. I didn’t have that luck. I just had–what he did affected me deeply. And that’s still out there. That’s still affecting me and it always will.”
”heroes” on “heroes” pt. 1 Bush on Bowie
“David Bowie had everything. He was intelligent, imaginative, brave, charismatic, cool, sexy and truly inspirational both visually and musically. He created such staggeringly brilliant work, yes, but so much of it and it was so good. There are great people who make great work but who else has left a mark like his? No one like him.
I’m struck by how the whole country has been flung into mourning and shock. Shock, because someone who had already transcended into immortality could actually die. He was ours. Wonderfully eccentric in a way that only an Englishman could be.
Whatever journey his beautiful soul is now on, I hope he can somehow feel how much we all miss him.”
(Kate Bush has everything. She is intelligent, imaginative, brave, charismatic, cool, sexy and truly inspirational both visually and musically. She created such staggeringly brilliant work, yes, but so much of it and it was so good. There are great people who make great work but who else has left a mark like hers? No one like her.)
