regarding this image http://www.transfatty.com/johnny…
and the mix mp3...mixing johnny cash over boards of canada although "spiritual" for the
american dj, is poor taste because it lacks any dignified respect for the
global electronic music community, specifically those who made it.altho i
respect him as a musician, and a person. it was a quick easy way to produce
an image that is so desperatly sought by the troubled american artist. that
said, i understand you, your search for something meaningful. it is not easy
to fit national identity into a global picture.canadian policy has always been superior to the american counterpart, and
that is part of the reason people laugh at americans as they try to bring
"democracy" to the middle east. laugh, but sigh despair afterwards. boards
of canada was named thus because it has a sophisticated social structure
that supports artists in a way like no other. this is why many americans by
and large have a deep seeded resentment for their northern brothers, because
canadians developed without the destructive forces of south carolina and all
the strange idealogies that evolved from there.richard james, and warp are British based. and do not forget that america
broke from the british empire, in their search for "independance" only to be
strangely united through greed and mutual stupidity in 2003. ironic dont u
think (u probably have already checked this site, but i am sure that u will
understand what i mean when i say http://www.thebaghdadblog.com/ho… watch
the promo. featuring aphex) its blatantly obvious that the worldcentric
idealogy of human sanctity is not agreed with by veteran ravers. and anyone
with any sense knows innocent death is absolutely wrong no matter what way u
put it. and when johnny cash says all those who have died, have not died in
vein. the contextual understanding of his words, in light of current events,
makes an interpretation of the opposite. that innocent death is justifiable.
think about that for a minute and while you hang up your catholic priest
robe i suggest u also contemplate the us rightwing notion of "original sin."
as justifiable death and it are often related. all people are inherently
good, and do bad things involuntarily.if i am wrong, of which i admit i could be, please feel free to let me know
why u did what u did?

any kind of american patriotism is so awashed with historical guilt, and
unprecedent politically corrupt baggage that the "greatness" that is so
often proudly displayed is viewed by all other nations as pure ignorance.
any greatness to be achieved by the americans, through the worlds eyes,
would have to be done not as a formal display of superiority and not in a
way america has consistently done so in the post..rather the real greatness
the world wants to see is the admission to the fact they have been wrong. a
cultural renassance of humiliation and regret. germany has a certain amount
of this with hitler. of course the world sits back and quietly watches the
strange saga of the usa continue to unfold, but historical fact remains that
the rich land of north america was a colonized country and thus politically
it had no old world associations. this point is evidence enough today to
make the claim that america has done a horrible job developing a unique part
of earth while using a huge amount of the earths resources. what good has
the us done since its started? and is the us powerbase legitimate?
traditionally the us has broke the world into two segments. this can be
best understood with the "us and them" idealogy that the us uses. however
as ultimate truth slowly sets into the population at large, wider truths are
increasingly obvious that the world is one and is working towards that point
day-by-day. had america developed with britain and maintained its
relationship, we can only speculate what kind of place it would be today.what the world wants to hear from the us is an apology for being horribly
wrong on a great number of occasions. do the americans really think the
power they have is from themselves? not only does american power root
directly from the land, whose isnt really theirs and everyone knows that.
but the world cannot fathom how america deceives itself into believing that
the land is theirs. of course we understand doing this would mean the demise
to the american spirit. because america is all about freedom, liberty, $$$,
etc..do you really think the rest of the world is any different than you?
for the world it is not easy because on one hand america is a powerhouse of
culture, and on the other poses the greatest threat to future-earth ever.
and often the cultural exports are becoming increasingly critical of us
authority. which further justifies the increasing disappointment with lazy
american consciousness.san fransico, denver, miami, new york do possess a great deal of
transcendental thinkers with worldcentric values but the majority of america
remains in the dark. and especially so with raving. drugs, and usage of
chemicals to altar states is something that warrants paranoria and fear in
america. why? because the us government will not allow minds that are
seeking spiritual attainment thru altered states. they want working
automatons. not enlightened souls. canada has recently stricken pot from the
schedule 1 of controlled substanced thus making it a legal substance to
possess. and generally canadian government is eons ahead of the us
government in making policy that measures up to the sentiments of the people
at large. partly because their population is smaller, and partly because
they have less rightwing fundamentalism, and a great deal more liberal
progressive thought which is based in real socially compassionate policy
making.i could go on and on about the patriot act, bush, ashcroft, but i am sure u
are well aware of the movement occuring on planet earth. the global
underground is surging towards a greater system of order, with increased
information technology coupled with musical intelligence there are forms of
consciousness that are absolutely without a doubt important to the evolution
of human life and the salvation of earth as a whole. and warp is on the
cutting edge in providing transformative media which brings about a
catalytic change in people to the integral wave of life.to reiterate i think it is bad taste what u did.
sincerely,
ron rockey-----------
