January 20, 2017 Prehistoric EC - Black Pearls: Words & Music of Twin Peaks
Before Eclectic City was a monthly publication a podcast was created celebrating the words and music of the quirky, weird, and influential 90's television series Twin Peaks.

It started as a fun project, something that was created from sound bytes and music gathered from collections that were available online not long after the internet "became a thing". These files were taken from the tv series and the prequel "Fire Walk With Me". Of course, most of the music here was written by Angelo Badalamenti. But songs like "The Pink Room" were purely David Lynch's creations. The podcast also includes remixes and alternate versions that some folks may remember. And then there's Julee Cruise's vocals... Uff!

The order of the songs, and their specific arrangement with the dialogue, worked out over a period of months, trying to arrive at some semblance of a chronological or "lynch-logical" order that made sense. I think in the end, I got it right.

As seems appropriate, the podcast begins with Agent Cooper, steadfast in his boy-scout mission to find Laura Palmer's murderer. We openly cheer his fearless dedication, as we fear for his soul. Twin Peaks reveals its secrets, layer by disturbing layer. Before too long fear becomes something both abstract and concrete.

And its name is "Bob".

I hope you enjoy listening to this as much as I've enjoyed making it. I'm still not tired.
