Obscure by Dir en grey. The song's alright, but what the fuck is going on that video.

Thanks to a horrific harddrive crash, I'm in the process of re-ripping some 2000-odd CDs to a new laptop, and along the way I'm rediscovering some awesome stuff I haven't listened to in some time.  The latest rediscovery being Devin Townsend's "Earth Day."

That's not what drum 'n' bass is!

Also, I'm listening to a full orchestra do pieces from the Zelda series. I still feel gipped; there's a number of songs (Song of Storms, most notably, as well as, say, Bolero of Fire or Saria's Song or Song of Healing) that could have translated really well to a full orchestra, and yet, they choose to do such themes as...Kakariko Village? Oi.

Spent most of tonight listening to Igorrr, and now I am thoroughly confused about how music works and why I like this stuff so much.

In summary, musical  :psyduck:.

(I would like some suggestions as to where I can find more, though)

That guy is quite a genious when it comes to textures, samples and layers of soundsif you ask me. Moisissure is a wonderful album.

Deathmole's Meade's Army album.  I am enjoying it, and instrumental metal is definitely not my thing.

I just discovered Jonathan Coulton this past week.
Listening to "So Far So Good," probably my favorite song of his that I've heard so far (along with "Big Bad World One" and "The Future Soon").

My friend, the ultimate hipster, plays pop-punk on her ukelele. The longest song is 1:57, and most are about a minute. I love how short and to the point they are, cutting out all frills while staying as fun as music can be.

SLFM

So fun! Go listen! She's on tour!

Got to talk about codes and conventions for three "very different" music videos. Not sick of the songs yet but I'll probably mute them soon enough. Spent most of the morning rewatching them.

The three I'm doing, I think:

Carrie Underwood - Before He Cheats (Originally thought of Dixie Chicks - Goodbye Earl because it's the squeaky clean video despite dark lyrics, but figured I should have one pretty conventional video to talk about)

Michael Jackson - Smooth Criminal [Full Version] (Still debating doing You Rock My World instead)

Bloodhound Gang - Uhn Tiss Uhn Tiss (Wanted to do Ballad of Chasey Lane but thought the Uhn Tiss video was more interesting to analyse)

I am listening to an old play list of Celtic music played by unknown to little known Celtic groups.  I haven't listened to it for a while, and I am enjoying it.

A back-garden neighbour (that we'd never met before) came round a week ago to complain about our dogs barking, and we discussed ways I could control this.  He emailed today to thank us for improving things, and then made some comments about my web site.  That led on naturally to pointing me at his folk group's website, which I have enjoyed listening to:

Moonrakers

Paul:  Fantastic! 

Several weeks ago we were at the house of a friend, and he was talking about the Moonrakers.  I wrote down the name of the group but had not followed it up.  However, tonight I did, and I am about to download all of their albums from CD Baby.

It's not about the awesomeness of the song. It's about the awesomeness of the video and You Rock My World has a lot more references for me to talk about and more importantly, it's shorter!

This is interesting.  When I clicked on this song, my browser said that it was 1:45 long,
which seemed pretty short for a piece of Jeph's music.  However, it actually lasted 9:10,
which was more like it. 

I liked the music.
