Nicholas Scribner - "Berlin Story". A shy dance, expert and stumbling. Walking to the café, today, over a sidewalk coated in thick ice, I felt just like this: expert and still stumbling, a humbled pedestrian. Nicholas Scribner's new song is at certain moments sweet, at other moments sullen, an origami object that was folded and then unfolded again. So: a creased piece of paper, a potential treasure, deliberately unmade. A careful gesture, 3:36 long, sent from Montreal to Berlin, dusted with the ashes of Scribner's work in Clues, underlined in the clear black ink of his electric guitar. Listening to a song like this, I mix every metaphor. Expert and still stumbling, seducer or the seduced. [bandcamp]
