Eclectic Soul 62 w/ Nick Drake, Maribou State, Varnish La Piscine, Flying Lotus and more
Episode link : https://costals.net/eclectic-soul-62 I just moved in a farm for a WorkAway experience. I was supposed to find a part-time job in Bristol from mid-March but the Universe probably wanted me to end up where I am right now. I'm precisely in Congresbury, 20km south-west of Bristol. I am giving 4-5 hours a day from Monday to Friday in exchange of accommodation and food. It's interesting to be in this day job situation after nine years. Work at the farm starts at 9am so I wake up at 5.30 to do my morning routine including creating a new track. Then I work about 1.5 hours on finishing music before feeding the animals and go on with the tasks I'm requested to do. I got my daily routine on a sheet and calendar app so my day and is well organised and I can be satisfied of my progress at the end of the day. It's nice to start the mandatory not-so-fun work with a sense of accomplishment so early in the day. I'm staying in a caravan on my own and I love it. This space is inspiring to me. I don't know how long I'll stay here, cause my values clashes with the farm's activity (they gonna get sheep to sell their meat). Plus, not least, my host is quite inconsiderate and seems to have partly the Diogenes syndrome. I thought about it because she shares similar traits with my sister who apparently has been diagnosed for that. It might be a consequence – for my sister – of her falling from the fifth floor when she was five years old. Anyways, won't go to deep in this here. I'm already looking for another WorkAway opportunity with purpose like collective creative work and permaculture. I got a couple leads. I'll probably walk from one place to the other. Approx. 10-12 hours. Might also ride my mini-cruiser board. So that means I must leave behind me some stuff, at a friend's place in Bristol. And have him ship me some of those things. My plan is to stay in the UK until the end of September. Then the idea is to move to Southern Italy in my homeland for a year, after stopping a while in Switzerland and France to meet family and friends. I'm working daily on finishing new tracks to be released in the coming months. I wish I could just make music. This is what I love to do the most on the same level as hiking in the nature and swim in the sea and fly in my dreams and playing football with a tennis ball. That's actually my major goal.
