Herewith an assortment of shorter listening. The fact that they're all short is about the only thing they have in common. Well, and I like them ( Read more... )

LJ says it's only been about three weeks since I posted music but it has felt like longer. Right now it's on my mind a lot because the latest round of sound driver updates to my home Realtek sound engine hosed the speakers. I can get sound via headphones but I can't use my PC to play music to the room anymore. Grr. Still, I have tabs and will ( Read more... )

I usually try to have five or six tracks to blog when doing a music post, but all three of the offerings below clock in at over half an hour so there's plenty to keep your ears occupied. They also represent three very different corners of my listening stream; I don't imagine anyone but me is going to like all three but maybe one or two will appeal ( Read more... )

Oh holy cow have I got music for you. I'll break it up into more consumable chunks. Some new things from known names, and I've been unpacking the Dzeko & Torres EDM mega-sampler I linked to a few weeks ago. Let's start with the new and the unusual ( Read more... )

We've got a couple of things you don't hear often and some long-form listening to get you over these rains (or whatever the weather is doing when you read this).

If there's a common thread to this set it's that all the selections are rich and reward multiple listens. There's a lot going on here ( Read more... )

Taking Fridays off means I move more stuff into the other four days so I often don't get extra time at the end of the week to put a music post together. Start of the week can be slow, and we just cancelled one meeting, so here we go. We'll start off with three versions of songs I really like, hear from one well-known act, then listen to one ( Read more... )

I have another huge backlog of open music tabs. This is all over the place, so let's start with some new stuff ( Read more... )

Still not making much progress against the backlog. Hooray for being busy, I guess. Also, stuff keeps being interesting and interesting requires investigating. At the end we'll revisit an old friend ( Read more... )

I found a whole new set of good mashes and it's crushing my browser, so you get a third music post this week ( Read more... )
