Aka Monday 4th
October 2021
…I am starting to
wonder if my “condition” is non-physical and is actually my anxiety…’cos some
of the symptoms are similar. Is my chest pain due to a dodgy ticker and blocked
arteries or is my anxiety causing my heart to beat faster causing pain in my
chest? All I definitely know is that I want to be back to, at the least, how I
felt at the start of the year or, even better, full and normal health. At least
of the heart scans coming up at some point, which should provide some answers,
clear some things up…anyway in better news the postman delivered my copy of Buddha Monk’s ‘Got’s Like Come On Thru’ single, featuring Ol' Dirty Bastard...
...which I got for the awesome
Prisoners of Technology remix, the song is good and okay, but the Prisoners… remix takes
to the next level. Also, it shows how well hip-hop and drum n’ bass go together.
Always surprised me that more high-profile US rappers didn’t/haven’t worked
with UK producers. I also got this (
digital) single from
SIDI...
...the
original song is an awesome track. It’s so effortless, chugging along on an
irresistible beat, drawing you onto the dancefloor and fun times. Set controls
for the heart of cosmic disco! And the
re-edit/re-mix by
Club Paradiso just gently
touches up the track for modern dancefloors. A great song and single
…
...and I read ‘
Die’
#20, which ends the ‘Die’ saga
on a weirdly up, but melancholic note. A satisfying end, our heroes get home,
things are tied up, lessons have been learnt…but at what price. Be interesting
to see if we ever return to soon what has happened to them in a few years’ time…and
I did today’s G2 Crossword:
…and Monday’s grid gets the crossword week off to an okayish
start, we only had to cheat on a sixth of the clues (three out of 19). A
typical slightly sluggish start to the week for the little grey cells, which
explains why we went for ‘gelatine’ for ‘explosive stuff’ and not ‘gelignite’
and didn’t bother to check if we had nine letters like the clue says! But we
did learn that a ‘pom-pom’ is a ‘quick-firing naval anti-aircraft gun used in
both world wars’…
