Random Song of the Day #4
This Plastikman remix from @slighter makes me want to DJ again, just so I can spin a set around this sick bassline. Plastikman – Ask Yourself [Visitor Seven Remixes] by colinc

Random Song of the Day #3
Completely bypassing #1 and 2 (since this is actually the third random song, after all), we move onto rsotd3. This track is from when I did tech support and stumbled on an indie music site that had some free downloads. The band is Nanang Tatang and I’ve been trying to find anything else by them…

Random Song of the Day #-1
Continuing with the non-linear numbering system, I thought I’d include a song that sort of seemed to fit the day the other day, which planted the seed for the song of the day meme… [audio:rsotd-1.mp3]

Lady Gaga doesn’t care if you steal her stuff as long as you go to her shows
I’m blissfully out of touch with most of what could be considered modern “pop” music, so I have very little opinion about Lady Gaga, per se, other than the fact that she seems a bit like an insane, overblown hybrid of Madonna and Britney Spears at their peaks. That said, she says some things about…

Review: Black Pepper Sea – Charcoal Essex Park
RPM is a couple months gone and I still haven’t gotten to listen to nearly as much of what came out of it as I would have liked. However, one album that was recommended on the RPM forums was Charcoal Essex Park by Black Pepper Sea. Working in the yard today, I loaded up my…
