I’ve been taking care of my Grams a lot more recently, cooking her dinner and fixing my special Port Worshington salad, bringing in her paper in the mornings, checking up for a scotch in the evenings, etc. Sunday, we had two personal pizzas a made from scratch and watched out across the Boulevard listening to Golden Donna’s II cassette that had arrived the day before, which I save to listen with Grams. And shoot, we had a wonderful afternoon talking about the garden and spring coming, the roof at a funny angle, and town traffic. The music also pleased her to no-end. GRAMS APPROVED.
Yo, but this video for “Empty Charm Vessel” off Golden Donna’s newest 100% Silk tape II makes me think of Caligula in a more PG-rated version. Super interpretive and way serious. Also, it’s careful. Just as the track claps on all fours, dancers gracefully land into each others’ arms, gliding along the surface of our eyes and minds. Beneath it all there MUST be a story, but one must look closer, feel the heat of the dance floor, and move it like they ain’t never before! Golden Donna’s II is out NOW on 100% Silk for -like- six wampum. Edition of 100. You should grip before it’s too late. Rip the vid above to fill in the gap. And scope yuung Decoder premiere of Golden Donna’s first single “Pale Dream Rider.”
