//IT'S TOO LATE FOR A CLEVER TITLE.

I haven't blogged in about 2months.It sometimes feels like it's really tough to blog about something that will keep someone on your blog for longer than 20 seconds.It's like there's just tooo much out there to write about or even share,so sometimes it's easier to just leave it at that and accept that the average visitor time will probably mostly remain limited to a mere 20seconds if at all...which is what lead me to slowly but surely abandon my blog over the last two months..

Now I'm lying in bed with my laptop and my battery has 50min of battery life left...my eyes about 20min (it's about 1h30am) and my brain possibly only 12min of efficient brain activity left to get this blog afloat again...
I figure it's a good way to spend these last minutes of the day...


Okay...if you're still here than we've passed the 20sec timespan meaning I've achieved what I set out to do :) (smirk)...

So here is what kept me awake as I figured the content was worth sharing and interesting enough to try revive this 2month slumber...


"Fulka-The mystery of the seven stars"

This album by the Pretoria based band Fulka is really quite a gem...
Not only are the songs solid and the album something that you will after one play through the album hold dear,but the album art is also something that would make suckers that have never heard the band (pfft-where have you been?) purchase the album.The band refers to itself as a "folktronica" outfit.I suppose its best to head over to their bandcamp and listen to it online

go to http://fulka.bandcamp.com/ to purchase/ listen to the digital album, or contact the band to acquire a physical copy.

Here is an image preview of the album:
