Believe in Everything? In the maximal ambisexual nature of the Moment?
Then believe in Dis Magazine, headed in part by fair and friendly weirdo David Toro and a collective, based in New York City. Above, a visual appendage to a recent mixtape at the mag's site, by someone called Visual AIDS. No idea who that is right now either, but it looks like we should be friends. The mix seamlessly combines, among other naturally evolved references, jams by Aaliyah (Q.D.E.P. forever my lady), Ace of Bass, and what sounds like that haunting soundcloud theme from the "Terminator" movies.
Total sense, right?
It's in the spirit of homies Total Freedom, Kingdom, Nguzunguzu, Patent Leather Daddy, BDY DBL, CLASS, and by a mutant extension, the so-called sissy bounce scene in New Orleans.
Go there and download it, and give yourself some radical queer balance to the essentially normative expression that is Wednesday's federal court ruling against Prop. 8 in California. Speaking of, after the celebrations tonight, read this article from a January 2010 issue of The New Yorker on the risks of taking same-sex marriage "too soon" to the U.S. Supreme Court.
The battle's only begun. Again.
Somewhere between Radical Queer and Hetero-Normative, the law sits, the haters sit, I sit, and you all sit besides us. Make Dis your visual soundtrack. Yes. You too can be highly effective.
