Reviews, new tunes, Top N lists, occasional song and DJ mix downloads, and other musical mash-ups.
I’m sure that there’s someone else way ahead of me but it feels pretty good to be closing in on 200,000 plays. And since it’s been asked already: 199,000+ represents approximately five years worth of play counts tracked via iTunes, iPod synchronization, and “nudging” 1 the playcount when we know something has been played off […]
Been a while since our last Sampo Method top 10… Been a while since we had a new music injection. The Sampo Method (Last Played is in the last 7 days, Date Added is in the last 2 weeks, Genre does not contain “Mix”; Limit to 10 items selected by most often played.) Blonde Redhead […]
More than slightly b’gocked by the following: While exploring Amazon.com’s MP3 offerings today, I came across something rather unexpected. When I found In Rainbows, the sidebar suggested that I might also enjoy this collection of lullaby renditions of familiar Radiohead songs. ??? A. & I checked out a few samples.

Tip o’ the hat to Pete on this one: real good Beats In Space mix on 24-Apr by “My Cousin Roy“. Slippery funk industro house disco crunch. MP3 D/L here.
Short version: Fun is where you find it. Funny how fun a night will turn out to be when you don’t expect it. “Short walk?” “Sure!” Hours later… You’ve admitted secret desires for industrial’s come back while at the same time spending half you’re night talking about house music, how you love to play it […]
Oh man was that ever fun. “We should do this again some time.” Huge thanks to everyone that came out to show support. Also: HOW AM I AWAKE ALREADY?
