Theirs is a darkwave of reverie and flickering city lights, swooning and sleek, romantic anthems for concrete bohemia, cigarette smoke in rainy gardens, and sound as color (“blue is fast and red is slow”). Vi/deo captures the bittersweet beauty of youth and utopias, the wistful transformation from miracle to memory, where love turns unreal and music becomes myth: “Sounds of the underground / Will echo in future days / Feelings of misery / Will fade into the haze.

There is no such thing as a culture that is not partially appropriated. There is no pure anything in culture. The search for such a thing is not only fruitless; it tempts one to try to create it via coercion and compulsion. Freedom to associate, in contrast, means the right to learn, emulate, and recreate–which is to say, to appropriate.

"The time has come for me to go

And bid you all adieu

For the open highway calls me back

To do these things I do

But when I'm travelling far away

Your friendship I'll recall

And please God I'll soon return unto

The homes of Donegal"

Xeno & Oaklander - Poison (from Vi/deo out Oct. 22) Love the old-school new wave italo-disco sound of this one. Looking forward to their new album Vi/deo out Oct. 22. Put your dancing shoes on.
