These sounds are one of my favourite things about Sublime. Now there’s more delight after reading this story every time I’ll hear them

When Gabriel's mom came in with that decisive move, I could hear the memory of a football announcer screaming in joyful exuberance, "GOOOOOOAAAALLLL!!!"

What does this have to do with Sublime?

Nothing. And also everything.

Love this demonstration of associative play across fields of interest and curiosity, ringing the tiny bells of my own associative networks, the two handshakes away from Hitler, the puzzling brass object my grandfather left me, a mindreader cat named Gabriel, and the zzzzt sound I make when opening or closing jars in the kitchen. Not to mention the countless others that slither through my awareness while I compile this list... Refreshing!

This is incredible! I remember noticing the sound and appreciating the analogue touch. This just makes it so much more special

just wow!

I started to love this sound the moment I added my first card to Sublime,

but I couldn't have imagined that it has such a great story behind.

Simply amazing!

(also 2:22 am appears in the storyline and for me it has a special meaning... so pure magic ;)

A big thank you to Alex for sharing this story and Gabriel for gifting us this wonderful sound. 🌻

“Sounds from the 30s”.

You had a playlist “fall down a better rabbithole”. This reminds me of the story Giorgio recalls during his Daft Punk song. Lyrical and beautiful!

That story was Sublimely told!

I think ideas have agency and if I don’t act on one, it will find another recipient through which to be born. The idea of stories telling us is a new one for me. An interesting exploration to be had. 😊
