We had discussed sending each other updates on music we had listened
to recently. So here starts my list:
(Some) Songs Heard on the Car Trip (Sorry Benjamin)
Rafter- Animal Feelings- Electronic/ Over produced sound. A one man
band who makes some fun songs.
Joanna Newsom- Have On One Me- A three disc album, some of the songs
are great (Good Intentions Paving Co.), others grow on you, while some
are bizarre. Her earlier work is rather far out there, but
interesting. Started as a classical harpist, who later branched into
singing. Micheal commented, correctly I feel, that her voice sounds
similar to Neko Case. (Who was mentioned briefly during the car trip,
as well as her super group, The New Pornographers. The solo work is
good, the group is pop, with mixed reviews from those in the car)
Boards of Canada- Not sure of the Album name (ask Michael) An
interesting ambient album.
I am forgetting several- Passion Pit was listened to, I believe.
And who could forget:
Mark Ronson & The Business International

I was pondering a site (blog, what ever you want to call it) where we
all could make quick notes of what we have heard/ purchased, etc. I
know we are all quite busy, but I thought it would be simple enough to
set up, fairly easy to use, and a nice way to keep in touch. Let me
know if you think its a good idea. Or not.
Back to grading papers...
