Last day of work before my "weekend" is always a bit rough. So I am pumping myself up on the bus ride by listening to some Folk Metal. Mainly Ensiferum, Finntroll, and Korpiklaani. Hopefully it will make the day a bit better!
Just found out about Delorean thanks to a friend who knows more about muzak than just about anyone I know. Listening to "Real Love." After that, Gorillaz' "On Melancholy Hill."
Finally getting around to checking out this Das Racist chap. He sounds sleepy, in a kind of awesome way. This track sounds like he and Jay-Z are having a race to see who can fall asleep while rapping first. Likeably bizarre for mainstream 'ish.
Also listening to some weird lo-fi / experimental rock from Glasgow, by This Guy's A Dick [pay-what-u-like DL]:
Hans Zimmers soundtrack for Inception and Jerry Goldsmiths discography. Plus a ton of old school rave/jungle/hardcore/idm music. Comprised mosty of tracks by Aphex Twin, Black Dog, Squarepusher and Venetian Snears.
So what was i listening to on my Mp3 player today?
Ólöf Arnalds - Innundir Skinni Sunshower Orphans - From the Fire Escapes Afrirampo - WE ARE UCHU NO KO Amen Dunes - Murder Dull Mind Clair Cassis - Self titled Black Flag - The First Four Years The Mob - Let The Tribe Increase Tulasi - Huomen Tuone Josef K - The Only Fun In Town
I found his album to a bit boring in places and hasn't really moved on from his other stuff. Pehaps he should have gone back to the hardcore speed metal of his teenage years...
This was a comfort-food kinda show, and dedicated to my late friend and radioshow mentor...
