++++++++++++Leonard Cohen - A saint is someone who has achieved a remote human possibility. It is impossible to say what that possibility is. I think it has something to do with the energy of love. Contact with this energy results in the exercise of a kind of balance in the chaos of existence. A saint does not dissolve the chaos; if he did the world would have changed long ago. I do not think that a saint dissolves the chaos even for himself, for there is something arrogant and warlike in the notion of a man setting the universe in order. It is a kind of balance that is his glory. He rides the drifts like an escaped ski. His course is the caress of the hill. His track is a drawing of the snow in a moment of its particular arrangement with wind and rock. Something in him so loves the world that he gives himself to the laws of gravity and chance. Far from flying with the angels, he traces with the fidelity of a seismograph needle the state of the solid bloody landscape. His house is dangerous and finite, but he is at home in the world. He can love the shape of human beings, the fine and twisted shapes of the heart. It is good to have among us such men, such balancing monsters of love.

"Review of 'Lonesome Heroes' by Adam Lovinus-Milwaukee's Fanbelt-
This 68-minute, 16-track post-rock opus by J. Flash makes a strong appeal towards my top ten of 2009 list. It’s only August, but I know a top-ten record when I hear one. It’s easy to draw comparisions with Animal Collective and Radiohead, but J. Flash injects enough originality into the music to transcend his influences. The opener “I See It In You” mashes up mathy synth-strings texturing with a driving four-on-the-floor on the kick, and could pass for a hidden track on Merriweather Post Pavilion record if not for the visceral Cobain-like chorus. J. Flash has Thom York moments in the middle of the record with the couplet “Don’t Know”/”But I Know”, but my favorite tracks on the record – being the prog geek that I am – are bizarre, gazer-y songs like “Piano Instrumental No. 2,” which features a trippy, fuzzed-out vinyl loop tucked under a clean, one-handed piano melody."
Reviews: “But who is this Jeff or Jay Flash, with his debut CD as deeply knowing to hit this mood? If you discover that this young artist is barely 25 years old, the question marks even greater intrigue….The music he describes as “Electronic Experimental” is everything except that of a ‘Loser’. Undeniably, it is a very talented musician, because otherwise you may not like music in this world where the scorched and goose bumps moments succeed each other. Sometimes you feel both at the same time as in the ruthlessly poignant “Dead Dream”. The titles clearly illustrate the not-too-happy world: “Nobody Knows My Name”, “Down”, “Dead Dream”, “A Warning”. Yet there are lively exchanges with some hope hidden amidst all this doomsday thinking and melancholy narrative. Like a person in the chaos of life looking for a new balance with music as a beacon….Jay’s voice sometimes reminds one of Rufus Wainwright, but sensitive in softer realms with a few grim turns. Though with Jay Flash the music prevails and makes his singing subordinate. Piano, synthesizer, guitar, and the drums of Dawson Barrett, lift the songs to a dimension where music is the only language that remains….Those who have these dozen songs in their possession can repeatedly play them the whole year through. This winter album is not seasonal.” – review of “The Loser” by Rootstime.be----------------------------------
“Jay Flash refers to his style as "experimental folk music," even if the 25-year-old Milwaukee pianist sounds as influenced by Philip Glass, Sufjan Stevens and Ben Folds as Leonard Cohen and Nick Drake. As indicated by the title of this debut album, The Loser overflows with despair, though it's as articulate as it is achy. Flash's resigned vocals sound akin to a fresher-faced, Midwestern Lou Reed....Flash's catchy, downcast songwriting could earn him a following of disaffected acolytes a la Dashboard Confessional.” - Milwaukee's Shephard Express))))))))))))^^^^^
Bio:
I enjoy it when the sun goes away. Sometimes I feel like the garbage that is underneath the garbage. I think all my problems would be solved if I could live in Iceland. ((((((((((((
The duty of the artist is to see the darkness, the horror, the despair, the agony, the pain, the apathy, the depression, the barbarity, the anger, the rage, the murder, the rape, the torture, the genocide, the hate, and to reflect a hope or a brightness which can withstand and outlast it all.
