After using Audioscrobbler for about a month and getting some tracks built up in the system, I have to say I’m really enjoying it.
I actually find myself checking my own page a lot just to see the trends in what I’m listening to. Kinda self-obsessed and weird, maybe, but that’s OK, I guess. One thing […]
PasteMusic has a great song by Sufjan Stevens entitled “woman at the well” available as a free mp3 download on their site.
Makes me want to get a set of bells to use in my recordings…beautiful acoustic guitar, chiming bell tones and softly breathed lyrics. Lovely.

Mat Kearney - girl america (bullet)
Mars ILL - reach, flirt with fame (pirate radio)
Soul-Junk - Ungst Func Slag Collision, Hogging All The Islands
