TINKICKER! TINKICKER! What have you done? You have sent from so far away,
to this fortunate son.
It's one thing to be typing away online, having transitions from online to offline,
but for the first time, for me, TINKICKER has broken not only international barriers,
but uprooted my mind, causing me some anxious times, making me question myself.
Please see the white package, supposedly a CD sent to me by Soren, a guitarist-producer.
Videos too.
But this isn't just a simple CD listen, no, I've had to sit back and figure out how I'm feeling.
I've been posting here at Magle.dk for over six years now, not steady, but only here,
something that's meaningful and important for me, as well as the level of musicianship.
I keep saying I'm working on sending a money order for some Frederik Magle CD's,
something I really want as a way to progress my own musical evolution,
just as much as I've been inventing and building electric guitars and amplifier systems,
for my sound, and I play how I sound, making all types of deep toned, moving sounds.
It's such a mood thing before it ever can become such a groove thing.
Soren, with this TINKICKER mailing, has done something that has never occurred before,
in my life, and I'm someone who sends things in the mail.
Getting this package has put pressure on me, receiving this gift not only for free,
but sent from Denmark, Frederik Magle's country, all this becoming a tight focus for me.
I used to write a music column and music articles for the local newspaper,
but I'm not seeing this as a potential review, and I can't imagine why you came through.
That's why I opened my inventive guitar case for the first time since last summer,
when I just looked, moving things around in my apartment, before a municipal election.
I have to look, if nothing else, to see the love of my life and remind me it's waiting.
I'm planning on setting up a build shop, after moving my after-election office out of the way,
so I'm using that as a prop for the TINKICKER package, to illustrate this elevated,
new mindset,
not that I know how it's set, and what mind is going to be left, after I open and listen.
Sure, you can say I'm just puffing myself up, maybe even going for promotion for TINKICKER.
Yes, I'd like to help this band, getting off on them here from the start myself,
even if I thought they were from Sweden, only finding out Denmark from the mailing.
Right away, this confronts me as a musician, as a player, making me want to be part of it.
It challenges me as a musician, wanting to get back with a song of my own.
I re-arranged my television with new wiring, using my second Sony CD and cassette player,
so I can lay on my bed in the dark with the headphones on, doing that with the TV a bonus.
That means I'm making more preparations to listen to this CD more than any other.
Is this putting pressure on TINKICKER, as in what will I think? It doesn't have to.
If nothing else, opening this package, as gradual as this might seem, and listening,
coming back to comment here,
is something I hope the symphonic and organ professionals here can use to open their minds,
beyond the paperwork of the classical tradition, to see what a modern band can be,
what it means to be players playing together, playing out of your own mind, your music.
Only I have ever sung my songs. I have purposely avoided and turned down recording them.
Now I am confronted by an online friend and his music, his band, his land.
Thank you Soren, thank you so much. This is more than just an extravagant gesture,
I can see that now, now that I've finally set myself down to accept your musical offering.
This is my first day of business in this new year, for auld lang syne, and for the good times,
and it's more than precious to sit here with TINKICKER's mailing in my hands.
I feel the world across the ocean, this domain becomes more real.
TINKICKER, TINKICKER, here in my home, you are the real deal.
And if you notice, I've got you riding the volume pedal on top of my guitar.
It's time for you to kick up the volume again, and let the font flow.
Don't worry. I won't be kickering about you where you can't see.
