Witch House.*

so following along with my OG goth rant, allow me to introduce the musical signifier of this cultural blend: witch house. pitchfork.com discusses this new genre at length: "...It's been called "drag," "witch house," and "haunted house,"...it's ghostly, slow-moving electro-pop, each with their own unique spin...."drag" is partly a reference to screwed and chopped hip-hop, the syrupy style cooked up by DJ Screw and others in 1990s Houston,...but they're also toying with dub, goth, current electro, ambient house á la KLF's Chill Out, and even chart pop...twisting it and slowing it down, making it druggier..." oh, post-post-modernism. you are at your finest.*

pretty much the dopest ring i've ever seen and *will* get my hands on:


painting from the tomb of nebamun built in about 1400 BC in ancient egypt showing a cat that has similarities to the modern day feral egyptian mau.
(some experts think that the ancient egyptians trained cats to catch birds.):
