Mark Linkous

March 8th, 2010

In 2007 I got to see Sparklehorse live in Denver. It was the only show I’ve ever been to alone and was one of the greatest show experiences I have ever had. I still have never seen a more diverse audience at a show.  Sparklehorse has been at the top of my play list for many many years. The sad and beautiful lyrics of Mark Linkous have been with me through a lot of sad times in my own life and I have always felt a strong connection with his music. Yesterday I heard the news that Mark Linkous committed suicide. Besides talking to him briefly and getting an autograph at the show, I only knew him from his music. I strangely feel like I have lost an old friend. Here are some clips of the Denver show and a song that is now always going to make me incredibly sad.

Tons of noisy sounds in a cheap plastic keyboard. This little guy can generate some very interesting distortion sweeps and an endless combination of sounds. Great for making some lo fi bedroom pop jingles.
