After a couple of happy-go-lucky pop compilations comes this dreary and drab mellow one. Although it concentrates on the melancholy it does incorporate many genres from folk to organic pop to black electronica to mood food. It’s more a feeling than a sound. It carries some gems we couldn’t live without during our hectic volunteer work trip in Madagascar. It’s called Woebego as it is a play on the word “woebegone” and it sound tribal. Now, we’re off to a random impromptu Hong Kong trip. Enjoy it and give us some feedback, these compilations don’t come often, if there is demand of the dreary, we will represent. By the way, this is the first time we hand the sleeve’s creative control to someone else. Thank you, JS.
Yeah, so we delved in the jungle, did what we have to do. Camped it out, roughed it out, befriended the blue mosquitoes and the leeches and the buzzy spiders. Now, we are back and as of the beginning of this week the Loft will be running as usual with no interruptions, we just need some time to talk it out with our peeps and sort some shiz out that’s been going down and then we will be back to full pop glory. Meanwhile, amuse yourselves with a picture of us rummaging through the southern Madagascar jungle while being hot and bothered. Have you missed us?
It’s time to give back to Mother Earth. As of today, I am embarking on a three-week adventure into the wilderness of Madagascar. I am going to do some volunteer work on environmental conservation and a lemur study program. As you might know, the secluded island nation of Madagascar has some of the most interesting and different flora and fauna of any nation on earth. Unfortunately, due to an increase in human population, deforestation has led to many of the species being either endangered or have gone completely extinct. One of the animals unique to this land is the lemur. I am glad to be a part of this program.
For the next couple of weeks, I will live in the middle of the jungle with no electricity, no phone service, minimal contact and camp in a tent eating rice and beans everyday. So, I will not have internet service. Meanwhile, the blog will be maintained with timed posts and a contributor has offered to take care of it. The blog might not be the same for a few, but bear with us until we finish enjoying this adventure. Who knows, it could be better than when I ran it!
