Sixes and Sevens

The phrase "At sixes & sevens" is an old expression of uncertainty: each day we stand poised in not-knowing, uncertain of our role in creating our reality. It's not entirely scary; it's just open-ended. The philosophers know this state; in fact, here's one of my favorites, Hunter S. Thompson, commenting: "And there’s the crux. Is it worth giving up what I have to look for something better? I don’t know—is it? Who can make that decision but you? But even by DECIDING TO LOOK, you go a long way toward making the choice." This – the process of creating our own fate – is our enduring mystery & suspense.

So I start you out with a Hitchcockian thought on the subject & from there you are left with only a faint path to follow & no guarantees you’ll get home.

Along the way, you'll have the company of Gramatik, Krystian Shek, Bliss, Stray Theories, Carbon Based Lifeforms, Dub Sutra, Jeep Jazz Project & more.

The best guides are the ones who give you the courage to find your own way.
