About Me



This is the musical diary of Anne Sulikowski.

She began this project in the Winter 2000 when she got her first personal computer. Since then she has musically documented and explored extraordinary events, her dreams, random thoughts and the simple pleasures and boredom of her everyday life.

Building Castles out of matchsticks cannot be lumped into a particular genre as no two songs, albums or pieces are alike in style, sound or emotional drive. Her tracks range widely from a chorus-refrain synth pop to crackled blips and skips of ambience and minimalism. Her experimentations are filled with analogue synthesis, organs, broken guitar strumming, pedal manipulations, found sounds, disjointed beats and barely there vocals telling secrets she wouldn't dare write.

or would she?

the honesty contained in the music of building castles out of matchsticks is real. as real as the one thousand sides of anne that records them. Her lyrics are improvised and within the moment. caught off guard. revealing?

anne also spends time behind a camera as both photographer and videographer...

i think alot about that.

AN illusion of time missing.

humble pieces
thrown together.

it doesn't make any sense

anymore.

things are shadows
without substance....

and still

my heart beats
to the sounds

thousands
of robots
ALL singing

to themselves.

i do not want

to waste

another day.

i would have

never

let you down

AN ASIDE...

you know

i have 2 problems

IN LIFE.

1. people have let me down

2. i have this inability to let things go.

?

and still

people seem to take

and take some more....

but

this is all i have.

it may not be much

but to me it's everything.

ISN'T IT funny

HOW
i spend most of my time

thinking

daydreaming and

wandering.....

documenting.

wishing...

re-living.

practicing the art

of forgetting

erasing.

but i still know how to smile.

and i really

love music
and flying saucer attack.
and cute robots
thunder storms
fishies in a pond
reflections in water
happiness.
books by philip k dick.
silence.
pink ballons.
snowflakes.

BUT

i guess it doesn't mean anything.

OF LA LA LAND.

oval.

short wave radios.
and matt david.
looking at autumn trees.
seefeel.
i love post cards.
original ideas.
creativity.

im always

puttering about a small land.

my most secret land
lust?
belonging.
love.?
hatred.
false hopes.
ideals?
these are what goven my life.

so lets forget everything
and listen to
yo la tengo.

my life is filled with

unreplied emails.
blocked users.
secret messages.
empty streets.

kisses goodbye.

painful hellos.

lets pause for
another
moment.

i know

there

is

no

modern

romance

and still

i wait most patiently....

and

i like it

when it rains

cause

no one sees

me crying.

I'm lost.

but not in this world

that i have created...

is this the end?

all

over

again!

Sounds Like: electronic lullabyes
filled with oscillating synthesis
telling stories of love
of dreams shattered
of promises not broken
lies often told
fairy tales coming true

and

other strange things i think about.

smile, silly face is available for 15 dollars

from 9 12 records

19 songs of love, loss, mystery, dreamstates and secret messages....

"oh, didn't she ramble...."

"the secret doctrine"

"studios and airplanes"

"there is no modern romance"

YOU KNOW

everyone has a story.....

filled with dreams

and secrets.

i know i've said alot.

BUT

perhaps i didn't really say too much at all.
maybe it's just scrambled words and random bursts of emotions i feel from time to time.

i don't know.

I've stopped trying to figure alot of things out.

.......

i guess to an outsider
it may seem

that i dont know much

but i do know

that things will just get better from here.
