Mama Never Went Electric

Marc Laidlaw (sci-fi novelist, writer of the Half-Life games, up-and-coming musician) posted a couple of days ago a demo for a song entitled "Mama Never Went Electric", and it is a delight. Built over a sparse drums-and-bass beat, it's a witty track about being raised by a Luddite conspiracy theorist who "chop[s] wood and carr[ies] water". The real delight here are the lyrics. Something about "Mama never vaped an e-cig / Mama roll her own cigar" hits just right.

I highly recommend giving the track a listen. I haven't listened to a lot of his other music, but after hearing this, I seriously hope he keeps it up.

(Contains brief strong language in pre-song banter. The rest is fine.)
