had a nice dream there was a circus arena packed with all the spectators in the stands waiting for it to begin and then a couple dozen clowns sat down in the remaining empty seats and that was the show,

Andy Heck Boyd runs a hotel. In Kentucky. At least according to his Bandcamp page. “I am shy. I like going out for coffee and coming straight back home with it. Maintaining relationships is difficult. I am deeply obsessed with making things happen, so that in part is one reason I tend to spend most of my time alone.” he exposed in an interview from pre-covid times. Much time to spend in-between those lonely days of the lockdown past, and our busy contemporaries. His musical output between 2020 and now looks like a lifework. Yet, it’s just a glimpse as Andy Heck Boyd’s practice includes video, painting, writing, and photography, too. All to be found in the music on “Kentucky Reptile God”, his debut for Kashual Plastik. It’s a wild one. On Mini-Disc. Un-nostalgic modernistic, romantically in love with the things of life. Deconstructing Prince through punk and poetry. Birds in conversations, sudden drones and Atari zones. A collage, sharply cut, utterly sad. Groovy cut-ups, full of tip-offs to a world beyond the audible. Hyper inspiring for the curious. Hyper disturbing for the conventional. It brings you up, and lets you down, the music of Andy Heck Boyd. Just like in his paintings, it carries an assemblage of pop culture motifs spreading heady, nervous samples of cartoon-like characters, environmental happenings, and TV clips, shaking the hips while sealing the lips. Snippets and fragments of unrelated subjects in deep relations. Illogical découpage music, fast, slow, multi-dimensional. Layer after layer. Let’s go for a car ride. Into the eye of Otis Jackson Jr., blinded by a comic punk, right above an old dirty bookstore. Bite on a stick-together allegory of the life of Andy Heck Boyd, who runs a hotel. In Kentucky.
