Favoriting Explorers Room with Flash Strap: Playlist from January 29, 2015 Favoriting

Flash Strap's avatar View Flash Strap's profile Favoriting

This is where all of culture and all of time are collapsed into one seductive portal and viewed through the panoramic lens of the exotic. Come and embark on an armchair-travel virtual-voyage to the heart of timeless darkness and beyond; embrace the numinous monolith of the exotic immensity. Let us find that place where hybridization meets its destiny as pure fantasy. Let us become observers observing those others who are ourselves. You wear your mask and I'll wear mine.

I can't find Sorcerer anywhere, I've always wanted to see it since my college gf had the sntrk.

Gonna crush some leaves and lie on top of a branch over here, @Flash Strap. Amazing show! I'll lurk here but eventually I'll come down the tree.

It's just J Peterman doing Kurtz' line "The horror, the horror" because of the Urban Sombrero.

You might not guess it, but I'm in a near-constant state of watching and rewatching Seinfeld in its entirety
Avatar 7:52pm
Flash Strap:

Same goes for Apocalypse Now, actually
Avatar 7:55pm
doca:

Haha I'm in a state of constantly trying not to rewatch any Seinfeld episode actually, because if I start I don't know if I would be able to stop before watching the whole seven seasons.

I used to go to the Okefenokee about every other year as a kid, I loved that place!

I had never heard this one until recently. It's pretty nuts. New favorite

This set is killer. Tangerine Dream and Froese were my LP artists of choice whenever I decided to take a lazy weekend afternoon nap.
Avatar 8:18pm
Flash Strap:

Sounds like a nap from the movie Altered States. Did you ever wake up in the zoo with blood on your face?

Thanks for saying so, by the way. About the set.
Avatar 8:20pm
Flash Strap:

Man, I would have liked that movie about ten times more if it had more appropriately cosmic music. I'm pretty medium heat when it comes to Altered States. Come to think of it.
  8:23pm
Dean:

At about the time I was taking those naps--say, during the late '70s and into the '80s--I had forgone cinema almost entirely. Still can't suffer too many movies. But I have kids now. Consequently, I've seen "Frozen" about six or seven thousand times.
Avatar 8:30pm
Flash Strap:

What a way to return to the cinema, Dean. How is it?
  8:31pm
Dean:

"Frozen"? Want me to sing it to you straight through from the opening sequence? I'm bitter, man, bitter. Fuck Olaf.
Avatar 8:33pm
Flash Strap:

Hah, wow! I haven't seen it, so I have no idea who this asshole Olaf is.
  8:34pm
Dean:

A friggin' snowman with a flame fetish.
  8:39pm
Dean:

Ah, all better. Afternoon naps...

Just looked him up. Looks unbearable. Look so stupid I can't believe what I'm seeing.
