Downstairs, amid the clatter of the production team's typing, there are American Gangster and Reservoir Dogs movie posters on the wall, countless boxes from Staten Island's best bakery, Alfonso's Pastry Shoppe, on the table, and a drawing of rockabilly Audrey Hepburn giving rockabilly Marilyn Monroe a tattoo hanging over the basement bar.

Stretching over 50 minutes, and drawn to long silences, it has the violinist wander between music stands placed around the room, in the midst of an electronic soundscape filled with the echoes of another violinist (the great Gidon Kremer) improvising, along with the occasional mumble of a voice or a clatter of furniture.

"Then these immense stretches of vacant ground below, will be covered with houses; the paved street will clatter with innumerable carts and resound to deafening cries," he wrote in The New York Sunday Dispatch, and yet the Croton works themselves would last "long long after we of the present time are under sod."

A demo called "Unstoppable" tells the legend of Maui, the Polynesian demigod, in a spoken-word cadence that can now only be described as Hamiltonian: "Abandoned by his parents and raised by the gods/Who could see he was destined for greatness," Mr. Miranda begins, against a polyrhythmic clatter of gourds and log drums.

In 21970, during my first trip to the United States, whenever I was visiting a university or high school and saw young boys and girls in auditoriums and hanging out on the lawns, I would see again the face of that young soldier, hear the clatter of that empty Coke can on the road.

The floor's made of polished wood, like you could tug on a pair of skates and cruise across the living room, get accidentally tangled in the plum-colored sheets, and clatter into low-slung glass table, sending a silver platter of watermelon chunks and pistachio seeds flying into the air like a pop of confetti.

There are moments elsewhere on the record, like "The Curse of Eternal Life" and "Empty Comforts" that up the tempos, relatively speaking, pushing their industrial clatter into territories that begin to approach techno, or hardcore—putting them in a realm that's not super far from those blistered Industrial Strength releases that razed clubs with Pantera samples.

It would have been right at any time of day, but for me, having it early in the morning, in a foreign country, with the hiss of the espresso machine, the light clatter of cups and saucers and so many snippets of lyrical Italian conversations ricocheting up and down the busy bar, it tasted like vacation.

The round tables ensure that half of the room is facing the wrong direction, food is constantly being brought to the table or taken away from the table, the clatter of silverware and clink of ice cubes are in constant competition with the microphone for audio dominance, and the lighting is usually too dim or too bright.

Dreamily, she even half imagined that she could hear her mother at work downstairs: a consoling clatter of pans and crockery in the kitchen, water running in the sink, voices rumbling on the radio—as if some substratum of ordinariness were so fundamental that it must always be carrying steadily on somewhere, below all the agitation of change.

But measured in the balance of seeing the work in New York under otherwise ideal conditions (the room where it is displayed is the tiny Clare Eddy Thaw Gallery, which often shows manuscripts and other up-close art forms, and whose doors seal you off from the clatter of the lobby), this is a minor complaint.

" He described his path to becoming a chef and his "love [for] the sheer weirdness of the kitchen life: the dreamers, the crackpots, the refugees, and the sociopaths with whom I continue to work; the ever-present smells of roasting bones, searing fish, and simmering liquids; the noise and clatter, the hiss and spray, the flames, the smoke, and the steam.

Photo by Ian Clontz, courtesy of Moogfest The Hyperdub beat wizard's set was paired with a video performance by Lawrence Lek that yielded probably the best conceptual moment of the festival, pushing those of us watching to contemplate an entire range of questions about automation and technology and capitalism while also losing our goddamn minds dancing to an unrelentingly hard clatter of sound.

Where they were aware of the sound of each other behind the perpetually damp walls—the sound of their bodies, the clatter of their makeshift kitchens in the corner, their voices calling to play, calling for help—aware of each other's shadows outside their wooden doors long before they had a sense of a greater world beyond that slope, that river.

There, amid a clatter of trays and a general conversational din, the soft-spoken chatterbox sketched out the unlikely path he had taken from being an aimless and indifferent student, to "that obnoxious voice" consumers across the world hear when call-center dialers manage to entrap them ("I sold mobile phones for AT&T"), to the great hope for Indian design.

But these aren't just tales of partying and excess (though there is plenty of that); the Miami we encounter on ZUU has plenty of speedboats, strip clubs, and coke dealers, sure, but Curry also brings us into the nooks and crannies of his Carol City upbringing, paying tribute to the friends he's made and lost along the way as FnZ's crunched-up beats clatter all around him.

From the iterant, almost antagonistic pulse of the motion tracker to the heavy scrape of metal on metal as shafts open up, the groaning and creaking of the ship, the stuttering blips and whirs of computers, the clatter of stuff just falling down, and the continuous mechanical whine of the tension-stretching "music," it's the audio of the Crew Expendable DLC that really puts you in the picture.

The idea of stowing away must be as ancient as the first human hitching a ride on a seafaring vessel out of old Mesopotamia, but in the covfefe clatter of our times, I find myself more and more fixated on such stories: The 23-year-old in the wheel well of a plane ride from New Delhi to London whose body temperature dropped, causing him to pass out until he regained consciousness on the ground at Heathrow.

A train is going to clatter, off beat, into the mix and a conductor will shout "All aboard!" and you will realize that, shit, you can't just turn this off now, Potatoland might be fun, it sure sounds good, so you'll travel with Randy California into the middle of the record and find out that it's "so lonely in Potatoland" and then he'll scream and you'll wonder if you really can hear someone in the back singing "mashed potatoes" and what does that mean anyway, given the context, given that we're in Potatoland, are you dead, or mashed, or is everything else mashed, is everyone dead?
