Maribou State - Blackoak | SINGLE, 2023

Algunas perlas que no podemos pasar por alto, por ejemplo el hecho que a mitad de este 2023, Maribou State marcó su esperado regreso con una nueva canción titulada Blackoak. Primer material en más de tres años, editado vía Ninja Tune.

El dúo de Hertfordshire, Inglaterra comenzó como un proyecto entre Chris Davids y Liam Ivory, lanzando una serie de singles y ep’s allá por 2011; antes de que la llegada de su álbum debut Portraits que los impulsaría a la escena mundial, al que siguió el impresionante álbum Kingdoms In Colour de 2018.  Esta nueva canción es muestra del sonido característico de Maribou State, combinando electrónica intrincada con instrumentación y voces orgánicas en vivo, construidas alrededor del tipo de ganchos atractivos que les han ganado una base de fans tan grande y dedicada a lo largo de los años. Toda una declaración de intenciones sobre lo que seguramente vendrá.

En el comunicado que acompaño al lanzamiento, explicaban:

« La canción fue escrita en un momento difícil tanto para nosotros como para todos los involucrados. Durante los últimos años, ambos habíamos comenzado a luchar con nuestro sentido de identidad y cuán conectados nos sentíamos con nuestras raíces en Gran Bretaña. El hecho de que el mundo estuviera en un estado de cambio pareció amplificar este sentimiento de desilusión, pero nos llevó a explorar todas las cosas que amamos de nuestro lugar de origen; los músicos, desde artistas como David Bowie y The Beatles, pasando por The Prodigy y Chemical Brothers, artistas como Burial, Aphex Twin y Sault; todos los géneros electrónicos nacidos aquí, desde Jungle hasta UKGaraje y IDM; y festivales, concretamente Glastonbury, el campo y los veranos ingleses. En “Blackoak” intentamos capturar el espíritu de todas estas cosas y, sin querer, nos ayudó a reconciliar algunos de nuestros sentimientos de indiferencia. Para nosotros se encuentra en la cúspide de nuestro viaje musical hasta el momento ».

El lanzamiento viene después de un intenso período de composición en el que emprendieron varias sesiones de escritura improvisadas, construyendo sus propios estudios caseros en varias ubicaciones aisladas en todo el Reino Unido e invitando a amigos y colaboradores a unirse. 'Blackoak' fue escrita casi en su totalidad en un solo día durante una de las primeras sesiones de escritura -lo cual es extremadamente raro para el dúo británico-, y se completó en un viaje posterior con la ayuda de su propio coro amateur.

« Invitamos a todos nuestros amigos y los hicimos cantar el estribillo principal, “do that for you”, en la escalera de la casa. Todo fue bastante caótico y se convirtió más en una fiesta que en algo productivo mientras estaban allí, pero toda esa energía terminó retroalimentando la canción y las voces que grabamos realmente hicieron que el final cobrara vida ».

El nombre 'Blackoak' hace referencia al área donde se escribió gran parte de la canción durante el invierno de 2021, rodeados de bosques cubiertos de nieve, algo que está cerca del corazón del dúo nacido en Hertfordshire. Como parte del lanzamiento físico, la banda ha hecho una donación al Woodland Trust, equivalente a una libra esterlina de cada vinilo vendido.

« Al haber tenido la suerte de crecer en una zona rodeada de bosques, siempre hemos tenido una fuerte conexión y afinidad con los bosques y ahora más que nunca apoyamos plenamente a Woodland Trust en sus esfuerzos de restauración y protección de estos magníficos y áreas vitales ».

Su elogiado espectáculo en vivo, que amplía su formación a una banda de 5 integrantes, los ha llevado a recorrer el mundo y tocar en algunos de los lugares y festivales más prestigiosos, incluyendo un espectáculo principal en la Ópera de Sydney, una presentación agotada en Brixton Academy, giras agotadas en el Reino Unido, Europa y Norteamérica, y actuaciones destacadas en festivales como Glastonbury, Primavera, All Points East y Lost Village Festival junto a Bicep, Little Dragon, Modeselektor y Richie Hawtin.

Round 9 - Winter - The Rossellini II Family

Rossellini II was Talia and Verity, but they are both getting their own houses this round thanks to their lottery win last time, so this family will be Talia going forward. She not only has to pay taxes on her newfound wealth but also an additional lot of tax thanks to ROS. It's only an extra §100, though, so that's okay!

The round began with Talia and Verity getting taxis to move out to their own houses. They hugged each other goodbye and headed out in separate directions for the first time in their lives.

Talia arrived at her house, which had been newly constructed and decorated in advance of her arrival. She stepped out of the taxi and sighed. She wasn't sure if she wanted to be on her own, really, but it made sense and she knew that Verity was keen to start a life with her girlfriend. Hopefully she would find someone soon as well...

The house she moved into is called 1 Blackoak Lane and is located behind the O'Donnell and Neetor family homes.

It is a house that came with Baskerville - I've just flipped where the entrance is (because it was to the rear of the house originally) and redecorated.

The ground floor has a large hallway, a kitchen/diner, the master bedroom, a nursery filled with furniture she had inherited from her dad and a bathroom.

Downstairs, in the basement level, is the lounge as well as a third bedroom and a second bathroom.

Outside, there used to be an extensive farm with lots of garden plots, but that has all been ripped up and replaced with a large pool. Talia is no farmer and the Hudsons' farm has so far been sufficient to feed the entire neighbourhood so there was no need for it.

What if Soverain and Mr. Ocean's parents were never assassinated?

Now that's an interesting question...There are so many factors at play here, it's impossible to say what would really happen. But I can say two things for sure:

1 ) The Aquarian Alliance either wouldn't exist, or it would look very different than it does now.

The Tekeetian King and Queen were very strict about staying out of Terrian affairs. They believed that Terrians were too primitive-minded to interact with cecaelia in any meaningful way, so there was nothing to gain by provoking them or trying to form an alliance. They didn't exactly hate Terrians, they just thought of them as victims of their own ignorance; like stupid, savage apes that should be left alone in the wilderness.

After their deaths, Sovereign took this mindset to an extreme. He escalated this superiority complex into a genocidal rampage against the Terrians, believing they were too stupid to govern themselves at all, and they would eventually destroy the world if they were left to their own devices. He believes that cecaelia are the only species intelligent enough to govern a functioning society, so it's the cecaelia's responsibility to govern Terrians and everyone else.

If Sovereign's parents were still alive, they wouldn't have let him escalate to that point. They would have kept his aggressive behavior in check, and probably found alternative ways to solve the pollution crisis that Terrians were causing.

In the current timeline, Sovereign tried to solve this crisis with violence, and it failed. Mr. Ocean tried to solve it with peaceful activism, and that also failed. Given their isolationist mindsets, I think their parents wouldn't have approached the Terrians at all, believing they can't control the actions of others.

Instead, they would have been proactive about changing what they actually could, by starting in their own back yard. Rather than trying to make the Terrians stop polluting, the King and Queen would have promoted research to deal with this pollution so it didn't affect Tekee. They wouldn't care what happened to other Aquarians or the Terrians themselves, their concerns lied only with themselves and their people.

So, if the Aquarian Alliance did form, Sovereign wouldn't be the one to form it. It would be some other pissed off Aquarian(s) who want the Terrians to stop polluting the sea.

2 ) Mr. Ocean never would have met Solveig. In fact, he probably never would have interacted with Terrians at all.

Mr. Ocean claims he was "a slow child", and his tribe considered him intellectually disabled. Now, if you've read the series then you know Mr. Ocean isn't stupid. He's actually brilliant, but he is really quirky, and it's clear that his people didn't understand his unique way of thinking. They mistook his uniqueness for some kind of mental defect. They did not try to understand him, they only tried forcing him to conform with everyone else and act like someone he was not. Of course he struggled to do this, so they just wrote him off as "slow-minded".

After their parents died, Sovereign started experimenting on Ocean to "cure" his disabilities, but these treatments just made him sicker and sicker, until Sovereign just kinda banished him to a cave in the wilderness because he didn't know what else to do with him.

If the King and Queen were alive, they wouldn't have let those experiments happen, and they certainly wouldn't have banished their son. Mr. Ocean's parents did not understand his quirks any more than the rest of his tribe did, but at least they had genuine love for him. His mother was especially protective of him, and though her efforts to "fix" him were misguided, her heart was in the right place. She just wanted him to be healthy and happy.

To her, that meant keeping him away from anyone who might exploit his disabilities. She certainly wouldn't have let Mr. Ocean interact with Terrians, so he never would have fixated on the Blackoak Tribe, and never would have met Solveig.

With his parents still on the throne, Sovereign probably would have become a military general at some point, or maybe the tribe's head sorcerer. The point is, he would have been too busy to play mad scientist with Ocean. I'm sure he'd still be a narcissist, but instead of fucking with his brother's head and slaughtering innocent Terrians, he would have been forced to touch grass and get a life. By the time his parents died of old age and relinquished their thrones to him, he'd be married, more mature, and more chilled out. He wouldn't have as much opportunity to stew in anger and hatred as he did in the current timeline.

As for Mr. Ocean's fate, I think it would actually be a lot more tragic. His parents feared for his safety and didn't let him leave the palace much. They knew he would be bullied and exploited by others in the outside world (which was true, and unfortunately came to pass in the original timeline...)

This sheltering would have continued for as long as they lived, well into his adulthood. They wrote him off as a simpleton and greatly underestimated what he was capable of, so they wouldn't have invested much in his education or experiences. He would have been cooped up and coddled for most of his life, never challenged or encouraged to grow. In this way, I think he would have never reached his brilliant potential at all. He would have remained dim-witted and childish until the day he died, never knowing romance or adventure or anything beyond his backyard.

Honestly I'm not sure which timeline is "better"...In the original, Sovereign is out of control and entire kingdoms are at war, but Mr. Ocean has at least made a happy life for himself. But this alternate timeline is like the exact opposite; the world has more peace, but Mr. Ocean suffers.

That's really sad to think about. :( But very interesting nonetheless!

G is for Grey Fox Here is the third and final sample theme I presented for animal alphabet options to my niece. (Look back two posts for more about this animal alphabet project) This design option, like the others, has the animal behind the letter. The font is a stylized serif option with a Blackoak font and would have a desert color palette. 🏜️ The letter on this option is painted with wet on wet gouache. The animals featured in this option would be species found in the Southwest USA (where my niece's family live). I was also leaning toward hand script labels under the animals (not pictured) since they would be particular species of animals. Again, the animal monograms will go on products in my store as well as the final alphabet chart/pattern. You can expect a post of story update as those products become available.
