about

This song came about from one of my favourite moments in Acapulco this winter - we went on a scuba diving outing, and even more memorable than the experience of diving (a first for me) was our instructor, whose name I cannot remember, because it is totally eclipsed by his outstanding hilarity and legendary laugh. I was so taken with him that I was turned on my phone recorder, fully intending to interview him for J chillin, a radio show I run with my friend Nick.

A trio of sunseekers chose the moment I was doing introductions to play some Bad Bunny really loud on the speakers. Pretty annoying, but they were alright, so I just went with it. What you're hearing here is as Mexican as it gets, except fucked beyond recognition, and hopefully, beyond copyright infringement. Either way, fuck it. Sue me, Bad Bunny. I'll fucking kill you ahah

lyrics

Que chingada...

Acapulco, Mexico... It's been a pretty good day.
Bit of a rough start, but..uhhh

Ready to blow my brains out -
