Ricky Ronda 
In Principe

blickwinkel 11  25.10.2024  LP

After mostly granting success by accidentally ending up in the Basic-Fit playlist due to algorithm malfunction, Ricky Ronda hopes to continue his streak of fortune with ‘Do You Have One?’.

Two years ago Blickwinkel released ‘In Principe’ after being force-fed 47 FLAC files of lo-fi aka badly produced songs, all recorded in the same period of winter pre-depression in June 2021. Some leftovers ended up on the new yellow record better known as Benelux’s biggest post-it note while others were confiscated by Deputy Brabantia. Calling it the B-side of the B-side is too meta even for Marks’ lab monkeys so it's up for Lord Seaside to decide… Besides, it doesn’t matter too much because the songs your friends like best are the ones you like least and Vice President Versa and you've learned that no mixture of glue and banana peel can fill lathe grooves back up again so lower the arm already.

The first and final review of the record was mistakenly moved from the Arts and Culture section to the Obituaries with the headline “Ricky Ronda’s assassination attempt on President Eardrum”. Music boggles from Narnia with vinyl consumption addiction and high sonic tolerance disagree and call it ‘raw and spontaneous’. Your friend who moved to Oslo loved it but the mail two days later says the WeTransfer link hasn’t been downloaded yet. Father lists grammatical comments in a shared document that continues to say "You need permission” despite multiple access requests while mother complains about the low mids. Bose QCii owners don’t even call because they can’t connect the damn thing since updating their Droids in the back seat of a Uber who’s rating has dropped while listening to the album on the job but at least they have one.
