I started listening to Blur after seeing you talk about them on that defunct social media platform and while I haven't gotten into them to the same degree, I love the way you write about the really special experience of getting into a band that's broken up and experiencing them as mythological and then real when they do actually do live shows again (I'm hoping to have a similarly transcendent experience with Pulp this fall). Looking forward to listening to your playlist since I haven't heard most of it before!

"I like that, in general, the presence of music is inherently paradoxical because it moves through space without occupying it. Words do the same thing. In a way, so do memories."

This is great! I’ve always liked Blur and Damon Albarn has been invaluable in some other interesting projects as well. Thanks for the playlist!
