jónsi & alex – daníell in the sea. (perhaps i am a little bit biased, but its still one of the most wonderous things i’ve ever heard)

… “sow some lonesome corners so many flower can bloom” by a silver mount zion…. espicially around half way through, the music feels like one is going over the peak of a hill.

fever ray at flow festival 2009. (more pictures here).

gloriousily fed up with music as of late. i took to clearing off several gb of music from itunes. after five years of using last.fm i actually started to use the last.fm recommendation station that it had waiting for me. fantastic stuff. as are the mixes on kinosport.tv (a recent import into the world of helsinki)

everything i listen to is in a digital format. the other day i bought a cd, imported it into itunes, put the cd back in its box and put it into a press* along with hundreds of other cds. perhaps i’ll never need to see the cd again.

whenever i buy music online from bleep.com i keep the original order .zip file safely stored away in an external hard drive. why? no idea. inertia i guess needs for me to have a “the original” filed away in a rarely accessed folder of a drive.
