It is happening... again.

Maybe it was watching the entire series of Twin Peaks for a second time.

Or maybe it was feeling the need to celebrate David Lynch's righteous (and remixed) rant against the bloat that has become Apple and iTunes, not to mention the arguably perverted notion that a 2.5 inch screen is really good for watching... well, anything.

Whatever the reason, I felt the need to microcelebrate the ecclectic (micro?)career of Julee Cruise. Uniquely claiming David Lynch and Angelo Badalamenti as producers for the majority of her studio work, Julee's eerie and pristine voice pair perfectly with the haunting films of Lynch and the minimalist retro production of Badalamenti. She seems to have been born to work with them: an observation that has surely served as a limitation to her in the years since.

Maybe you need the red curtain and spotlight of the Roadhouse for the full effect. Watch Twin Peaks if you haven't already.
