Friday: As part of the process of becoming a DJ at my university's college radio, I have to listen to a few of the innumerable CD's that they are sent on a weekly basis and tell em what's worth playing. I listened to Ginkgo, which is a side project of one of the dude's from Tapes 'n Tapes, which kind of tells you…

Friday: I drove to stay with my roommate from the year previous before we moved into our dorm on Saturday, so I took the three and a half hour drive as an opportunity to listen to multiple albums I had listened to parts and parcels of, but never in full:

OY GEVALT!

I'm sorry to hear that- my mp3 of them doing "Scary Monsters" live certainly sounds like they could have put on a hell of a show.

"You're lucky I don't kill you right here after what you pulled in Berlin."

Being older and wiser now, I can't help but appreciate the second sides of those albums, one for being perhaps the most concrete musical manifestations of…

What, Television and the opportunity to see Marquee Moon live wasn't enough?

That sounds like a solid answer, yeah.

Who fuses the music with no illusions, producing the blueprints? Clueless?

Washed Out- "Feel It All Around"
Coolio- "Gangsta's Paradise" (NO SHAME)
My Morning Jacket- "Librarian"
SBTRKT ft. Sampha- "Hold On"
Bauhaus- "Bela Lugosi's Dead"

One week later, and I can't help but agree. Definitely a solid listen, but after the first four tracks, everything just blends together without any real distinct songs to speak of.
