Najbolje, da začrtam novo knjigo portretov glasbenic/ov, ki so nase ponovno opozorili v letu 2024. Kar nekaj sličnih potez je v dejstvu, da so se letos s prvenci oglasile Beth Gibbons, Kim Deal, Mary Timony, Latetia Sadier in tu je še Kim Gordon s svojim drugim samostojnim albumom.
Prehod iz benda končno v povsem avtorsko, solo pozicijo, po drugi strani ne prinaša bistvenih presenečenj. Zadostuje le, da prisluhnite osnovim poetikam posameznih umetnic in slika, zvočno lirična slika, bo takoj jasna. Koliko Beth, obeh Kim, pa Mary in Latetie je bilo nekoč v njihovih bendih, je na mestu; veliko. Z naklonjenostjo sem v vseh teh desetletjih še posebej spremljala njihove lastne skladbe v okviru, recimo temu skupine, alter, indie, noise..kakorkoli v teh okvirih.
Vsak izbor urednice je seveda subjektiven, in nič ni narobe s tem. Mogoče mu, ali vsaj nekoliko več kredibilnosti ponuja dejstvo, da se v okviru kuratorstva vsebin temu posvečam praktično celo življenje. In ta duh tematik in zvočnih pokrajin se v vsem tem obdobju preliva z menoj. In številne umetnice in glasbenice so z menoj od vedno, toda kot da bi letos še posebej senzibilno posegle v čas nekoč in danes in vmes. Ker vmes je življenje, čustvovanje…je umetnost. Ali kot zapiše Beth Gibbons v skladbi Lost Changes:

Love changes, things change
Is what changes things
Time changes
Life changes
Is what changes things

We’re all lost together
We’re fooling each other…
We try but we just can’t explain
We took on a feeling
A moment a gleaminh
And said what’s the game

In na drugi strani pogled Kim Gordon, ki ga je ponotranjila na albumu The Collective: Na plošči sem hotela izraziti popolno norost, ki jo občutim v tem trenutku… Gre za trenutek, ko nihče v bistvu ne pozna resnice, ko dejstva ne obidejo ljudi, ko stoji vsak na svojem bregu in se ustvarja generalni občutek paranoje. Umiriti se, sanjati, pobeg v svet drog, TV šovov, interneta, vse teče gladko, prepričljivo, ujeto v blagovne znamke. Hotela sem prekiniti ta tok in slediti neznanemu, mogoče celo spodletelemu.
