"Post Punk" by The Crystal Method, Hyper & Iggy Pop

Listen on Apple Music

I personally feel that Crystal Method’s music has a kind of rock and roll swagger in its electronica, EDM, or which ever label you choose to apply.

This track uses audio of Iggy Pop talking about an aversion to classification, describing what he does not want in favor of just being.

This reminds me of a Buddhist practice of have heard of in which you state internally “I am not x” in response to an adjective or role that may occur to you in order to get to the non-self.

This track won’t take you to that place.

It does have a mean groove. It’s deconstructed and has a good amount of reverb, which I dig.

I listened to it on the way to work this morning and let it play out in the parking lot before heading to my desk.

I love it.
