I think I'm sophisticated 'cause I'm living my life
Like a good homo sapiens
But all around me everybody's multiplying and
They're walking round like flies man
So I'm no better than the animals sitting
In the cages in the zoo man
'Cause compared to the flowers and the birds and the trees
I am an apeman
I think I'm so educated and I'm so civilized
'Cause I'm a strict vegetarian
But with the over-population and inflation and starvation
And the crazy politicians
I don't feel safe in this world no more
I don't want to die in a nuclear war
I want to sail away to a distant shore and make like an apeman
I'm an apeman, I'm an ape, apeman, oh I'm an apeman
I'm a King Kong man, I'm a voodoo man, oh I'm an apeman
'Cause compared to the sun that sits in the sky
Compared to the clouds as they roll by
Compared to the bugs and the spiders and flies I am an apeman
In man's evolution he's created the city
And the motor traffic rumble
But give me half a chance and I'd be taking off my clothes
And living in the jungle
'Cause the only time that I feel at ease
Is swinging up and down in the coconut trees
Oh what a life of luxury to be like an apeman
I'm an apeman, I'm an ape, apeman, oh I'm an apeman
I'm a King Kong man, I'm a voodoo man, oh I'm an apeman
I look out the window but I can't see the sky
The air pollution is a-fogging eyes
I want to get out of this city alive and make like an apeman
Oh come on and love me, be my apeman girl
And we'll be so happy in my apeman world
I'm an apeman, I'm an ape, apeman, oh I'm an apeman
I'm a King Kong man, I'm a voodoo man, oh I'm an apeman
I'll be your Tarzan, you'll be my Jane
I'll keep you warm and you'll keep me sane
We'll sit in the trees and eat bananas all day, just like an apeman
I'm an apeman, I'm an ape, apeman, oh I'm an apeman
I'm a King Kong man, I'm a voodoo man, oh I'm an apeman
I don't feel safe in this world no more
I don't want to die in a nuclear war
I want to sail away to a distant shore and make like an apeman

There Are No Words
It was a big week for your little friendo, Ashta. I spent the first half of it sheltering in the gentle sweeping piano of the Ethiopian composer and famous nun, Emahoy Tsegué-Maryam Guèbrou (re: first track). The second half of the week was committed to making a radio show for you that took a rather holy vow of silence. There are simply no words. Literally, it's all instrumentals. I did it for you, because I love you. I also fancy myself in service to every living specimen of biology that inhabits the area which this radio signal transmits to. Whether they know it or not, they are being subject to an invisible frequency containing the tragic melodies and joyful beats of these songs. All of this packaged in the vehicle of my strange mission, in the form of a file located on the internet:
Right here, babes.
This week on The Sweet and Sour Variety Hour, a lyric-less hour of nonstop instrumentals. As usual, the vibe starts off gentle and moves into a more awake and lively tempo.

My friend Kristjanne lost her mom to cancer earlier this year. Now she's putting on a free outdoor concert/celebration/festival at the amphitheater in Ladysmith, BC.

Move It
Sometimes it's old school country twang. Sometimes it's ragtime ballads. Sometimes it's classic R&B. Sometimes it's metal. This week it's an hour of music you can move to. House, dub, dance. I think you'll like it.
