You can keep your Walkman's and your compact discs


They’re simply a lesser form not as good as this 


record, this vinyl, this stir crazy spin cycle


pale cheap imitations of this pure original


Dip into those grooves baby, up down each one with a different sound a


different story to tell


 


Lay that needle down


 


I don’t need no iPods, more products from apple


the only fruit I need is the fruit of my intuition telling me that


enough is enough


Let’s go back to that crackling hiss, that snap that let you and me know


Hey this,


This is music.


 


This is a song, a tune, this is how it is meant to be


this is pure ecstasy


Heaven in a headphone, Nirvana from a speaker


Moksha from that music, take me back


 


Hallelujah I say, lay that needle down


and let it play. 


 


Give me that groove


That snap, that crackle


As that goes round and round


Give me that stir crazy spin cycle


 


Give me back 


that vinyl


spin it,


spin me round and round


 


I’m a DJ baby and I don’t spin no other way.

Ombra was thinking dark thoughts, not that this was unusual for an inhabitant of Umbra. In fact, Ombra’s thoughts were always dark, wrapped in the same shade that composed his inky form. B...

The air is heavy and thick, the kind of heat you only feel in those summer nights where skin becomes damp with sweat and people become drunk off the stars and their passion. Through the night ...
