Mix
I discovered the cd mix of the month club yesterday, after reading this article in the Times. Pretty cool idea. I’ve already made a mix to send off. Hopefully, the mention in the Times doesn’t bury the poor guy.
Emusic
After going for quite some time without downloading and burning anything from Emusic, I went nuts today and burned 4 CDs. Soft Boys, Solarized, Boss Hog, Matt Pond PA, Ivy, and one song from Cat Power.
Stimulating the economy
I bought a bunch of stuff this weekend:
- The new Badly Drawn Boy album.
- “Retro,” the New Order 4 CD box set.
- A couple of Spider-Man TPB’s, reprinting all the JMS issues that I didn’t already have.
- A Hulk TPB, reprinting the first Bruce Jones issues.
- The Powers “Who Killed Retro Girl?” TPB.
- ASP.NET in a Nutshell. Not as fun as the other stuff, but necessary.
So, I’ve got a lot of listening and reading to do. Too bad I still don’t seem to have enough spare time for all this. Oh well!
(The motivation for buying all the comics, by the way, was a gift certificate that I got for Christmas. I’m not on some mad buying spree. Really.)

Spiraling
I heard a bunch of stuff from Spiraling today on RSU, on the way home from work. Very nice!
