Once in a lifetime, there was a little fairy. A real tiny one, such as those in fairytales. Her name was Elizabeth but she did not know this herself, for Elizabeth had never spoken to any of the other fairies in her life. All the other fairies hated Elizabeth. Even her mother and father did! For all the nine years Elizabeth had lived so far, no one had ever spoken to her and because of that, she herself had not learned to speak  either. The little fairy had tried on many occasions though, but even when she tried her very best, no one paid attention. For all this time, Elizabeth had wondered why no one wanted to speak to her or play with her.  
 Then one day, someone spoke to her as she was sitting in her tiny little fairy room in the tiny little fairy house,  in the middle of a tiny little fairy town deep inside a tall, dark tree.

'Do not worry'



'All is fine'

there was, of course, once upon a time, a small idiot kid, feeling misunderstood, like all tragic children that eat too much chips and watch to much television that live among us, brothers and sisters in specie, but viewed as aliens, for no particular reason <they say>

while the small idiot kid was spending time whining,watching porn, playing mass-murdering videogames and pretending not to have an adrenalinique, but casual existence, in hell one's evil plan is germinating in one's evil mind: to destroy earth. yeah, we never heard that one before!as i was typing, the evil wants to kill life on earth just for the fun of it, so i won't spend too much time with pointless, dull explanations, for instance the creature was mistreated by its malefic parent by not wanting to buy it a mass-murdering machine, even if it was on sale.

so it gets married with another mega-evil creature from HELL! and their curious affection created a being as evil hell can be. the creature was so mean, than even hell itself was pretty shocked to host such an abomination. so hell suggested the parents to put their new born thing in an exile on earth, home of all of this kind. the evil creature i was typing about earlier <remember? it wanted to destroy the world and stuff> couldn't hope for more. it pretended to not be ok with it, but hell insisted on the deal.

so they left their creation in crystal palace park, london in the middle of the night. the other parent was not happy. it said to it <the one with the evil plan> that it's going to miss Horsiebird.

"who the fuck is horsiebird?"

"our baby!can't you see? it looks like a horsiebird. it has wings! can you fly, love?"

"i prefer not to answer to a couple of unprincipled traitors of blood lines abandoning their own kind in a goddamn freezing middle of south london park!"

"its first words!" cried it <the one who was going to miss Horsiebird> with excitment.

"don't talk to it and don't name the thing, otherwise you'll be depressed for decades and give some bad inspirations to humans, like it happened to the demon who suggested 5 member boy bands singing pop music in a very gay way!"

"that's highly thoughtful of you, having concerns regarding humans. but what about leaving some bloody mittens so i won't fucking freeze, thinking that i left a place were the temperature difference is more than 30 degrees...celsius" said Horisebird really irritated.

"oh,my! it talked to you! you hear that?"

"with all my seven ears. we have to flee, before it manipulate us with baby cuteness to take it back.come!"

so they disappear."guys? mittens?... blast and curses! i already hate existence!"

666

so the story started with the idiot kid, didn't it? he was wondering in crystal palace park, for who knows what reason, regarding the fact that he was a normal teenager, in mid adolescence, a age so inappropriate to waste time in fresh air, when you can break rules, smoke and play brainwashing video games. and he suddenly hear screams. so he thinks a cheap concert may befall.

so he hears "OMFG! OMFG! AN EVIL CREATURE FROM HELL! RUN FOR YOUR LIVES!" so he thinks "i should check this shit out!"

and he approaches the monster in his innocence, with calm.

"wazup!"

"tourist, aren't you? well, i'm not a national excitement son.but you can try taking a picture to the lovely ducks that wonder around in the lake. i was feasting with a couple and, i must say, they taste rather spicy with all this pollution around!" said Horsiebird, suppressing a burp.

"no, that's the way we say 'hello' today!"

"oh, seriously? i thought that's how you say "may i take a picture?" in polish. bloody hell, the human creativity has no borders, indeed!" pointlessly Horsiebird tried some dry humor, but Idiot Kid had no concept of sarcasm.

"so, what are you, you funny looking thing? are you some exotic animal escaped from the zoo, trying to get back to Australia?"

"well, my beloved parents that were kind enough to abandon me all of the sudden wrote this interesting brochure attached to my left wing. can you reach it?"

"yeah sure." said the Idiot Kid, curious. "oh, fuck! i don't have my reading glasses!" revealing one of his darkest secrets.

"don't mind that. they choose a really big size to express their kind love towards me."

Idiot Kid took the brochure and started trying reading it. it started in this manner:

"BEHOLD! this is an EVIL CREATURE from HELL!

BEWARE! it is HIGHLY EVIL!

AND HIS FIERCE NAME IS

HORSIEBIRD  

<with blood running out of the writing, but i can't create the special effect here>

it can melt you with you with its x-ray sight, vaporize you with its smelly toxic breath, it has sharp nails made of  stainless steel and dangerous fluffy that can carry you onto space ,than cut you in pieces, than drop you, let you rain blood over the world. and most dangerous of all: it's poisonous gas. it casts loose all junk food it had it's short life in hell.

why did it have such a short life in hell, you wonder?

it was abandoned by its parents,because it was too fierce for hell itself!

but you can take it home. IT'S FOR FREE!"

"for free?" exclaimed the idiot."then i'll take ya!"

"really? why do i wonder? asked horsiebird itself. will i have my own bathroom? i fancy long baths."

"we should become friends! i'm Just an Idiot Kid."

"i figured that out by myself.what about the bathroom i asked?"

"oh, can you read minds as well? by the way, i am socially programmed to ignore subjects that i don't care about, for instance what are my parents going to say, seeing you on our sofa bed.but annoying them is the only way to make them realize my existence is still present among them. so, be prepared to be surprised." said the Kid's conscience under Horsiebird's influence, wanting to know about it's own bathroom.

"darn... well, i can perform telepathy, indeed, but it doesn't take an evil genius to figure out your name."

so they went

I could be the child
Of a god, among the silver swords
Of the grasses, and the perfect golds
Of the broad flats sloping,
And the delicate greens,
And the russets, and pinks.
The landscape of the fathers
And the mothers takes me in, the grasses
Close around my knees
And fall off the steep cliffs to the sea.

What you do so well - a sense of relentlessness.

The rise of the waters - the bee's hum of politics - the advance of the branches - black needles overtaking space, over and over, higher and higher - like a menacing forest reclaiming the world of the screen and the bit, the LED and the cathode ray tube, the white blank  ...

I watch for them every time.

Come and get me.

when i was in school, i used to study religion. it was a crappy class, because of the pointless hour we were spending. learning again and again about orthodoxy -cuz this is what it actually was, not something interesting <for example religion's history>.religion can be a very interesting subject if you know how to put it in the eyes of your audience. religious dogma is a philosophy, and, if you don't have any clue of other types of philosophies, is pointless to call others ignorant.

anyway, there was this time when the teacher managed to create a more vivid reaction from my fellow colleagues, as i am naturally half asleep and the other half somewhere in the cosmos of my own imagination, and i was pretty much the same at that time. she <the teacher> put the question:"what will you do if today, at 7pm jesus will come on Earth?". no reaction, of course. she told us to write the answer on paper. i can't recall my own answer, but, probably i was hungry at the moment and, as 7 pm was close, i said i'll eat some maccaroni and cheese, or whatever my mum was kind enough to provide. others, ze believers, said they go to greet him<with capital h on their papers>, others that they won't be at home at that time, because the bus will still be taking them home, so jesus better find another hour to pop on Earth. etc.

the teacher seemed unhappy with our answers. what? what's wrong with macaroni? than she takes a deep breath and say:"if jesus comes on Earth again, it means THE END OF THE WORLD, dummies!" oh. shit! we're such ignorants!the end is coming and we are still on the bus?

of course, that's not the way the things really happen. well, not literally. thinking at the fact that this planet is bursting into curses against us, in its own way, and we continuously ignore the signals, it's pretty low for the human being who claim they're smarter and more capable than the rest of the fauna and flora we share the world with, to keep stretching the borders of cheeky behavior against our own home.

and we are indeed more capable. no other specie sabotaged themselves like we did. and still do.

so when the glaciers are melting, polar bears start disappearing, it's the end of the world dummies!

I uploaded a bunch of samples. Tell me what you guys think.

Thom Yorke, Jonny Greenwood, DOOM: Retarded Fren

The first track from Lex Records 10th anniversary compilation 'Complex'.

A new track by artists on, or associated with the label made available every Monday for 10 weeks starting November 7th.

LISTEN TO RETARDED FREN HERE !!!

As part of a compilation celebrating the 10 year anniversary of Lex Records, DOOM (the artist formerly known as MF DOOM) has teamed up with Radiohead's Thom Yorke and Jonny Greenwood for an as-yet-untitled track. (Maybe this is what they were working on back in March?)

The compilation is called Complex, and also includes contributions from Gruff Rhys' and Boom Bip's Neon Neon project, Boom Bip solo, and Doseone and Fog's Crook&Flail project, among others. It'll be made available digitally on a week-by-week, track-by track basis until mid-January, at which point the whole set will be released on picture disc vinyl.

This won't mark the first collaboration between Radiohead and DOOM-- Thom Yorke remixed "Gazzillion Ear", a track from the rapper's 2009 album Born Like This. Stream that remix below.

As part of the Lex anniversary celebration, DOOM will head out on a UK tour in November, teaming up with Ghostface Killah and Jneiro Jarel for a show in London. Dates are below.

Oct, 28/2011: Halloween Time !!!

   Modeselektor feat. Thom Yorke, 'Shipwreck' (Video)

                                                               Watch Video ! Source : nprmusic

In case you didn't get enough of a scare from "Haunt You," The Pack A.D.'s monster-filled music video, we've got another video fit for the Halloween season, this time from the German electronic maestros in Modeselektor, featuring the vocals of electronic music's favorite guest performer: Thom Yorke.

This time, we're dealing with blood-lusting zombies and a battery-hoarding little boy. "Shipwreck" is a brooder, with slow-moving atmospheric pads rising from out behind a shuffling beat. This single from Modeselektor's newest album Monkeytown sets an unsettling tone for the gray shots of the main character's fortress. Director Tony T. Datis told me in an email that, because his English isn't good enough to understand Yorke's lyrics, he drew his inspiration from the sound of Yorke's voice instead

Gernot Bronsert and Sebastian Szary of Modeselektor contacted Datis about the video over the summer, and said of the final product. "When we saw the final video, we were moved to tears — such a great and emotional video." For his part, Thom Yorke had this to say: "Wicked."

In some ways, the wickedness of the video pays homage to one of the oldest fears of mankind. In the face of mindless zombies, it seems our hero is less worried about their homicidal intentions than he is about going to bed without a nightlight.
