Sleep Dose

Mercoledì 25 febbraio, Sleep Dose #158 (L’animale leggero).

Frutti acerbi che si potrebbero trasformare in lago; lucciole a zonzo tra fiori di felce; un gatto di fronte ad un fermo immagine del mare. Queste alcune delle immagini sonore che incontrerete, se lo desiderate, in questa selezione di brani, che stanotte sa proprio di canzone.
Ho sempre sentito una comunanza con i canidi, e per lunghi tratti della mia vita ho potuto godere della loro presenza, compagnia e consiglio. Ancora oggi ho la fortuna di potermi perdere, mentre passeggio nella neve, nel nero abbagliante di un mantello peloso.
“Nella vita non è il futuro che conta, ma il passato”, ci dice il titolo di uno dei brani in scaletta in questo nuovo episodio di Sleep Dose.

Wednesday, February 25, Sleep Dose #158 (L’Animale Leggero).

Sometimes we feel confined within our human bodies. Watching the unpredictable aerial trails of solitary birds, I feel a pang of envy. Soaring lightly, flying. It is simply enchanting. Animals are totems, symbolic reminders of ancient heritage, something to cling to when we lose our way in our daily lives, when we seek protection for our wounded souls. A glimpse of atavistic innocence, ready to incarnate itself in the strangest and most unusual forms.
Unripe fruits that could turn into a lake; fireflies wandering among fern flowers; a cat in front of a still film of the sea. These are some of the sound images you will encounter, if you wish, in this selection of songs that tonight really feels like a song.
I have always felt a kinship with canines, and for long stretches of my life I have been able to enjoy their presence, company, and advice. Even today, I’m lucky enough to be able to lose myself, while walking in the snow, in the dazzling black of a furry coat.
“In life, it is not the future that counts, but the past”, as the title of one of the tracks on the playlist in this new episode of Sleep Dose .
