I came across it through doing a search for Caruso.  And there was Entropy Circus, because it incorporates Caruso in one of the tracks.  I started listening and pretty much immediately felt good (the flu\/cold must be close to vanquished I  thought) and got the strawberries, which have been sitting untouched in the refrigerator since the beginning of this cold\/flu due to disinterest.  I settled in.  And after a while of listening&#8230;a long while (going through the process of first searching out who Entropy Circus is and reading some and then slipping into ancient memories of electronica, with which I&#8217;ve an intimate relationship,  Marty having done a good bit with it back in the late 70s and early 80s, but one moves on and it was something I have not been inclined to give an ear to for years, unimpressed with most I heard)&#8230;I realized I was about as relaxed as I&#8217;ve been in a long while.  Remarkably relaxed.  This was excellent drone music.<\/p>\n<p>These tracks do definitely tamper with the brain waves, despite the fact I was making comparisons, finding resemblances between this and that and electronica and rock past.  Altered my brain and magically removed annoyances.  Made me want a popsicle, eventually, so I got one out and my taste buds were there, for which reason I threw away the first  selected, accidentally having chosen cherry, and went for the orange which is  as  close as I can get to eating oranges as I&#8217;m allergic to citrus, and was surprised to really taste the popsicle from the tint of bitter orange rind to the woody stick at the core.  Which I credit to Entropy Circus.
