We haven't had one of these in a while...
So what's on your mp3, record or cd-player at the moment?
At my place it's Beck's Odelay while I'm waiting for the new 'The Streets' album.

EXCELLENT ALBUM!!!

Nellie McKay -- jazz/pop wunderkind described by one critic as "Doris Day meets Eminem." Wittiest wise-••• lyrics I've heard in a while, paired with really catchy melodies. Also, enjoying the last two Fountains of Wayne albums -- they're powerpoptastic!

I'm kerning, for which I find I need something upbeat (to keep my brain active) but consistent (so I'm not distracted). Five Chumbawumba CDs in rotation does the trick.

I've been streaming Air America Radio for the past two weeks. I can't seem to get over having a lefty talk radio network on tap. Other than that, I find that I've been in the mood for the New Pornographers a lot recently.

All kinds of stuff, I have a post on my site with the details.
29 Apr 2004 — 9:28am
Not too interested in music these days, so I work in (relative) silence.
For the more repetitive font chores, like kerning, I'll put on some classical piano. Messiaen's "Vingt regards sur l'enfant Jesus" is preferred. It's very long...

Hm, Friday. I think I'm feeling a bit Beck-ish this morning. Then maybe a splash of Homescience and Freezepop. Perhaps some Latin American electronica later on to finish out the afternoon.

Listened to Good News the other day. I still don't think they've done better than the Lonesome Crowded West. What can I say...

These people are currently being played lots:
goldfinger, aimee mann, nofx, authority zero, rem

Yeah, Good News is a little too quirky/random. And in my haste to make joke about PUSA (my kids dig it though

Steve and Isaac: After a second read you are exempt from my "rant." :-)
1 May 2004 — 11:32am
M. Alyce Barker are you saying that we are 'wrong' for listening to something new(er)?
I don't have a problem with bashing people's tastes, I do have a problem with bashing people's time.
It's like the earlier thread about the way language is destroyed/deteriorating, language has always been destroyed, the previous generation will always hate the way youngsters use language. And the music they listen to. And the way they dress. And the amount of metal they choose to ram through their bodies.
BTW. I'm listening to 2Raumwohnung 'Kommt zusammen' now.
1 May 2004 — 11:50am
"M. Alyce Barker are you saying that we are 'wrong' for listening to something new(er)?"
Kenn, No. Sorry it read that way. I was teasing -- bashing anyone was not my intent. The happy face and quote marks around rant are supposed to mean I'm not serious; I fully expected to be teased back about being a music dinosaur, which I am.
1 May 2004 — 11:55am
You forgot Elvis!
Don't be sorry, it's way better than people saying 'I like all music' .
1 May 2004 — 12:15pm
Yeah, you know, at the risk of getting myself in more trouble, never a huge Elvis fan. Ditto Bob Dylan. They were huge -- mega-important -- but not my cup of tea.
I am being exposed to some different (newer) music (as well as massive doses of NPR) by my new office mates so perhaps there's hope for me yet.
1 May 2004 — 12:46pm
What about Brian, Alyce? ;-)
Speaking of music 'dinosaurs', I've been listening to some Rush lately (specially 'Moving Pictures'). And a few weeks ago I finally discovered PIL's 'Second Issue'. The 'Swan Lake' song is just great.
1 May 2004 — 1:06pm
The Beach Boys remind me of my first date with my college boyfriend. Yes, add Brian to the list. (You do mean Wilson, right?)
Oh, and add Carlos and Phil to the list too. :-)
1 May 2004 — 1:31pm
Yeah, Wilson.
(nevermind, edited)

>No Paul or Art? No James? No Carley?
Alyce, I'm glad to know that I'm not the only dinosaur around. Most of these youngsters are too hip for me.
I must confess that my popular music development was effectively arrested in the late 80s when I lived in an ashram. When I listen to anything with lyrics, it's most likely to be nostalgic. Plenty of James. Cat. Paul & Art.
Or Elvis (C, not P). Sometimes Sting Andy & Stewart. Or even David Jerry Tina & Chris (anyone remember them?).
More often than not, however, it'll be purely instrumental -- Wolfgang, Joseph, Ludwig. Or Antonin, Camille, Sergei.
In the afternoons, maybe Benny, Duke, Dizzy, Monk, Miles, Metheny. Or possibly Weather Report.
What can I say? Hopelessly anachronistic.
