Mandarin Balkan-brass direction · swaying two-beat and a friendly rough voice
After eleven thirty, fried rice noodles and skewers pass between vendors without payment. A newcomer tries to pay and is told that charging would make her an outsider. The narrator found a place at such a meal during six poor months, and returns even after opening a shop: not for the food, but the welcome to sit down.
The 118 BPM Balkan-brass direction puts trumpets, saxophones, low brass, bass drum, snare and handclaps beneath a rough Mandarin male voice like a friend’s toast. A swaying two-beat and communal replies give the packed-up street a small celebration. Style is not proof of an actual street recording.
Only after the lights went out one by one did the stallholder sit down to eat. Skewers were traded for fried noodles; neither took the other's money. What stays from those poorest six months is the feeling of finding a place among strangers.
