"Empath" isn't an official psychological term, but it's generally defined as a person who is highly attuned to the emotions of others. Empathy is an essential skill for all kinds of relationships. But people with very high levels of it may have a hard time setting boundaries between themselves and others.
ret·ro·grade/ˈretrəˌɡrād/adjective

1. directed or moving backward."a retrograde flow

1. a degenerate person.

Desperate to start a revolution that would destroy the music scene (after getting his heart broken by a recording engineer), singer/songwriter/open mic king, Snarky Remarkable (The Full Benefits) embarked on a journey to the Himalayan mountains where he found The Ampersand, who quickly tempered his expectations. Fully surrendering to their insignificance, they filled out their band with guitarist Ryan Whiskey (The Meatstix, The Milt Homely Experience), bassist William Mayer (Nagi) and keyboardist Jordan. Jordan turned out to be a jerk-faced jerk who left the band and was replaced by synth wizard Kola Kola Pop (who has since abandoned them as well).

They perform an intense brand of roots/rock/soul/psychedelia built around catchy, lyrically dense, emotional explorations of heartbreak, grief, boredom and mental illness with a touch of levity and humour. Their performances at The Park Alleys and The Osborne Taphouse presented a band hellbent on creating a connected and transcendent live musical experience that stays with those who experience it.

Their debut single “She Comes to the City” is available wherever music is listened to, as well their follow up smash “Drugs are Fun”.

The way

I see things

Things just are

And I just am

And that's the way

It is

Nothing to be done

Of the things

We wish to change

Only way

To get out

Is through

No Logic

In the chaos here

Sometimes

Feel like

Putting on

Magic cloak

And running off

Into the dark

All alone

Dalphon Black is this weeks guest on this edition of Purple City Podcast

Dalphon writes, produces, and records all of the music. Recorded over a period of 6-7 years, these songs were created with minimal knowledge in the way of the recording process. A big part of the allure of the project was the lack of knowledge. The point was seeing how far one can stretch a bare minimum understanding of how things work, and how coherent can the outcome be? All of the sounds you hear on this album were recorded directly into audacity using a single USB “rockband” video game microphone.💜

THE MADMAN HIMSELF, KOVIN KESTNAR IS HERE!

This is by far the funniest podcast I have ever recorded so please, sit back, lean forward and jump to enjoy.

Who is Kovin Kestnar?

"Kovin Kestnar is an alternative hip hop artist / visual artist who creates horrendous music and videos in Winnipeg, MB. He's an insufferable jackass and tells the truth about how no one gets laid in Brandon, Manitoba. He'll get you laid for $20 and sign your copy of Spider-Man 2 on DVD. He punches the steering wheel when people tailgate him, sometimes he yells at pedestrians. You can find him zipper merging onto Pembina highway screaming like a madman."💜
