Scott Williams made this mix, a trip around the world, exclusively for this podcast. Wicked cool. Enjoy!

Raised in Cornwall, residing in my building in Berlin, Scott Williams  DJ who takes listeners on phantasmagoric sonic adventures.

Keep up with Scott's work on Mixcloud. I know he digs this set and this one. This one here is mighty groovy too. 
Scott would have you watch the 2001 documentary Scratch for free on YouTube. He would also urge you to listen closely to Critical Beatdown by the Ultramagnetic Emcees.
If you're in Berlin, hit up Scotts fave record shops: Dodo Beach, Space Hall, and Lefte Records. If you're not in Berlin, Scott still thinks you should stopping thinking about it and just get a record player.

This song is a meditation on a podcast conversation with poet and professor, Joshua Weiner. The lyrics are a version of a Osip Mandelstam poem, translated by Weiner. It features Marty Kondziolka on drums, Mark Kondziolka on sax, and is produced by Brian Trahan.

Poet and professor Joshua Weiner and I explore poetry and music, inspiration and translation, adventure and catharsis.

Keep up with Josh on his website, on Twitter, and on Instagram. Pick up his new book Flight and Metamorphosis, a collection by the poet, dramatist, and Nobel laureate Nelly Sachs. The New York Times recommends it and so do I! Josh is on tour. Go see him live.

Diver deeper into  some of the poems we explore on the podcast: Casting Back, Paul van Ostaijen: Village, 1928 a version, Art Pepper, Mandelstam: Voronezh, 1935.
 
Josh might have you read the 1984 Village Voice interview with James Baldwin and urges you to watch the Apu Trilogy.
