Download the Summer Haze Mix
This summer has been somewhat of a blur – and with new jobs, a new cat, and a new apartment lurking on the horizon (actually only the apartment is lurking, the cat and the job are already squatting squarely in the living room), I thought it best to offer up something [...]

Download the Currently Awesome Mix (zip file)
Many things have recently conspired to keep this blog less-than-current, most notably all the time I sink into changing my GChat status so as to antagonize Paul Campbell. In a penitential spirit, I dedicate this mix to him.
Currently Awesome is a represenative sampling of the music I had in [...]

I’m not sure how much of a chance Morgan and I will get to post to the blog during the holidays, so in anticipation of a text dropoff, here are a some sounds to bridge the gap.

A short, true, story:
Way back in May, I thought I was going to start a music review blog. It was to be called The Music Bucket. I thought that, rather than review lots of albums that I perhaps liked (or didn’t like), I would instead try to see the entire world in a grain of [...]
