about this album
“Everything And Nothing” was the first single released off Blixie Perestroika's debut album "Ambition is Low " (September 9 2022). The vast, mysterious soundscape builds to a soaring melancholic release, or as singer Blixie says: “the sound of truth gleaned only after having f-cked up, the sound of self-recrimination" and the aftermath of the “saccharine, dirty madness” of getting lost in “desert time” in Los Angeles. The single was released with an accompanying video shot in the Scottish Highlands, Venice, Italy as well as in the studio (location unknown). According to an interview with Ghettoblaster, a key theme of the song is about “the shock of losing a great friend, a true genius. Everything and Nothing is self-recrimination,” Blixie says. “I spent too long chasing adventures in L.A and dealing with people I thought were kindred spirits on the basis that they had made films/music/art that were meaningful to me when I was younger. In reality the figures behind them were hollow…shadows. People of no fixed personality or loyalty. I felt like Diogenes, being perceived as a lunatic while looking for an honest man.” Referencing time spent in Australia, Blixie sings "should have been back in Sydney, saving it all for the Great M.C". This is considered to be a reference to pioneering scientist and genetic pathologist, Dr Melody Caramins. As Blixie walks across the Rialto Bridge in Venice, a graffitied MC appears behind her left shoulder. User-contributed text is availab
