Episode 24: "DA FLAVA DU JOUR" feat. Object Blue *FULL EPISODE ON PATREON*

Trevor McFedries

It was time to do podcast with the musique artiste object blue (@objectblue), who pulled up to the CFHQ with what can only be described as a very bad attitude.She had bones to pick and beef to purge. The fellers were subjected to unhinged rants about Keanu Reeves, the lesbianic artfulness of the Wachowskis' 'Bound', Beijing wet t-shirt contests, fickle fashion house creative directors, classical music elitists, not being Peggy Gou, lads k-holing on beaches, and the tribulations of a cowardly b2b partner. A depraved individual, a real piece of work.You may hear:Preview: @cloutfarmpodFull ep: patreon.com/CloutFarmPatreon: CloutFarmIG: @cloutfarmpod

I hate that you are, like, not the first person that said this to me. I hate this. Do you think you have Reddit energy to people? No, I shouldn't. Why should I have Reddit energy? I only go on it, like, once a week now. Recovering addict. How often were you going on it before? Okay, so I grew up in China. We had censored internet. One by one, everything got axed. One day, Zanga was gone. One day, MySpace was gone. Zanga? Remember Zanga? No, I don't. What is that? How old are you? Oh, I'm so old too. But you lived in China for your teenage years. I did, but I don't know what Zanga is. Where did you live in China? Oh, okay. Yeah, that figures actually.

2:51-5:01

Off pod, off pod, that's cut. Why does that figure? Because he's like, he's cool, you know? Okay, okay. We can keep that up, we can keep that up. Were you from like a tier two city? I was from Beijing and I went to the school that only had like super capitalist nerds. Right. They're all working for Goldman Sachs or Uber or something now. Dave's a super capitalist nerd. Yeah, yeah, for sure. Yeah? And I work for Goldman Sachs. Highly doubt it since you're doing this. You went for the Goldman Sachs of copywriting. We're going to cut all this. Well, since we are colleagues from China, can I have one of your cigarettes, please? I would love nothing more. Thank you. Wait, but what was the final word on the Matrix? Did I miss something? Apparently it's like an allegory of some type. Yes. It's about being trans, right? Is it? I feel like people have retroactively projected that onto it. Including the witch house. That's not what it's about. Yeah. It's like correcting the witch house. It's in that burial song. Oh, yeah. Yeah. Can I have a lighter? What this? Lighter, please? Yes. Wait, which burial song is about that? It's like the moment. Come down to us. Yeah, yeah, like the intro. When it's all like, the burial song where there's a crackling intro. Yeah. And it's 13 minutes long. But actually, sorry, David. But the thing about Bound is, like, it actually depicted lesbian sex well. And people were like, how did the Wachowski brothers know, like, all these, like, details about, like, lesbian culture? Like, of course, you know, the androgynous woman is a fucking, like, chicken plum. Like, you know, of course the... Is that, like, a move? Yeah, like, DIY.

5:01-7:14

Oh, I thought you were talking about lesbian sex. You thought, like, plumbing was, like, a term, yeah. Sorry, go on. No, this is not another one of your, like, gooning thesaurus shit. That's so good. I have a very narrow frame of reference. If it's not gooning related, I'm just kind of out of my head. comfort zone no i do sympathize with that because i always i'm like what's that what are people talking about i don't get it i don't get this reference um so uh no like jennifer tilly only speaks in this like like you know she's like this coquettish whispering um girl she's fam of course she wears like red lipstick of course she wears like tight dresses and people were like like lesbians were like how do the wachowski brothers know this they did a lot of research and then they both like transitioned into women and they were like oh i see yeah and burial a man made lots of money out of it i feel like there's been like whispers of burial i can't remember maybe i'm just like hallucinating this but there was some talk of like burial potentially being trans i've always thought a lot of people thought that burial i thought it was kind of like sent me on the record that like beryl was like a gay man yeah is that true i don't think that's true really i mean also like our mutual friend i feel like we talked about because we have we have like fantastic beryl tea that we're never allowed to talk about wait i don't even know this off the road yeah no we genuinely can't talk about it okay all right well anyway i guess on a really superficial level i think it surprised me that you only watched the matrix two years ago because i feel like I would presume from your music that you'd be like deep into like 90s cyberpunk films. Oh, thank you. Well, I sound like such an asshole, but again, censorship in China. Yeah. And one of the only like movie watching methods I had was MUBI. So I've been on MUBI since like 2011. And then like,

7:14-9:29

So I watched a lot of, like, arthouse cinema. Yeah. So, yeah. And, like, also things like The Matrix. I was like, oh, yeah, I've seen it. Because I remember it playing on the TV. You just think you've seen it, yeah. I think I've seen it, but then I watched it and I was like, fucking hell. It's actually a really complex movie. Yeah. So, no. Wait, so what were you watching on the 2011 movie? Um... I don't, oh my God, I wish I could. Oh, there was this really fucking annoying Scandi movie called Pure. And then like everybody was like, this is amazing. Like all the movie reviews were like, oh my God, this is amazing. Like so beautiful. And it's just about this like lower class Norwegian, I don't know, some sort of Scandi person, girl with like her, you know, provincial. uh lower class boyfriend and family and she feels really unfulfilled because she likes classical music so she's better than them you know and then she keeps going to like the um the opera house and like crying at classical music and you know she like her boyfriend doesn't fulfill her because he doesn't know who wagner is i think it's about something else she's unfulfilled because her boyfriend's not a nazi there you go and then i was just like and people were like It was a beautiful coming-of-age movie. And I was like, you think some people are better than others because they listen to classical music, which is the cardinal sin this woman commits, and that's why she's an unhappy protagonist. And then everyone's just like, yes. I was like, burn in hell, all of you. Damn. Is there something... What's a thing you like? Washing machines. Besides washing machines. What's a thing I like? Yeah. I feel like there's a lot of strong, hateful energy emanating off you right now. I am, yeah. I mean, like, well, I detest this, like, classical music snowball. Like, I went to music school. I went to a conservator. And people always want to mention this when they write my, like, little blurb where I'm going to be DJing to, like, you know, a thousand people who's on ketamine and they can't even, like...

9:29-11:53

tell what they're listening to they're like oh with her classical music background no i don't have a classical music background that's why i studied electronic music so i don't have to pass abrsm grade 10 piano because i can't um and people are always like oh you know you're sophisticated because you like classical music like no stop it's not that deep well let's set the record straight what's the least sophisticated thing you've ever done um Like a wet t-shirt contest at a city bar in Beijing. Hell yeah. Hell yeah, there we go. Did you win? No, I didn't. I have no tits. Come on. Of course I didn't win. What prompted you to do it? Well, growing up in Beijing in the 2000s was just trashy. We were in a bar called Juicy Spot. It's now defunct. It's in peace. And then my friend met her future husband there. But she was doing it. And we did it because you win like a big bar tab if you do it. But then we were all wearing bras. So it was kind of like no point. But I was like, fuck it. Like, we'll just do it. I don't know. It's hard being a woman in this world because you do shit like that. Even though... Wait, was this before or after the Olympics? It was after the Olympics, unfortunately. That's actually a really good metric of time because 2008 Olympics, like Beijing, like changed a lot of things. Like the government was like making artificial rain happen. Streets got cleaned up. Like they built entire like venues that are like the size of a small English town. It was like those pajama police. What? Pajama police? What's that? There was like a... There was like a... There was like a dedicated... There was like a dedicated task force who... Whose specific remit was to stop people wearing pajamas in public. Well, they didn't fucking succeed. They probably put a... They might have put a dent into it, but it is quite complex in China. Also, how do you know this? You were in... You were not in the Olympic City. This is just a rumor. I'm just a worldly individual. Wow, congratulations. Thank you. Dutch guy and...

11:53-14:20

Dutch guys. Sick. Wow. Never happened before. No, sorry. I do have the hatred for the Dutch. It might come out in this interview. Let's hear it. Yeah, that's a favorite topic of CloudFound. It's kind of a motif. Yeah, I mean, if I didn't know you were Dutch until I got here, if I'd known, I might not have agreed to this interview. So what's wrong with the Dutch? I understand. Like... I can't stand how progressive they think they are, but they're not. It's so boring. And, like, they're just, like, so self-congratulatory about it. Can you ask, because they liked weed the most for a long time? They like weed the most for a long time. They love, you know... Like putting women in sex shop show windows so you can shop for women like commodity. They think it's progressive. They like euthanasia. I do agree about euthanasia. You want to be killed? Yeah, I would want to go like before the pain set in. Right? I mean, doesn't everybody? I honestly don't know. It's a big question for me. It's a big question, but... Man, you've been unemployed for two months. Give it more time. Are we all unemployed here? David's not. David works for Goldman Sachs. As established. Congratulations. We're also podcasters.
