Canteloube: Chants d'Auvergne. Exquisite, and always makes me think of the summer. It's bloody freezing outside.

Lovely isn't it. Who's performing it ? I have the Veronique Gens version.
I think you'll find it's a bit more complicated than that.

This is Kiri Te Kanawa but I have heard that the Veronique Gens version is superb...can I justify two copies?

Since it's on Naxos and thus dirt cheap I am sure you can.

Was she just an old-fashioned girl? ;)

Just for a change, Korn - The Path of Totality

Will set the iPod to random after this.

Various tunes I've been extracting clips from for use as ring tones*. Everything from The Prodigy's "Voodoo People" to the theme from Dangerman. ;D


* Hours of fun with the Audacity utility.  :thumbsup:

BTDTGTTS, spent far too long working out optimum length of clip* then finding suitable source material**.

* 9 seconds
** my favourites being the opening bars of "the MAn Who Sold The World" from Nirvana Unplugged, and the chorus from "New Breed" by Fear Factory.

Chairlift - Met Before.  Pure happy pop like this will always be my favourite kind of music.

Re Chairlift: Once again, I heard the band before seeing them, and only afterwards realised that the singer is stunningly beautiful.  Music comes first; looks are just a bonus.  Honest!

Tom Robinson - from early stuff to the most recent stuff available.  Probably annoying Butterfly, but I like it.

A lot of Clark.

He just sneaked out a little snippet of his new album:

<a href="http://www.youtube.com/v/6nq4M7QBxt4&rel=1" target="_blank">http://www.youtube.com/v/6nq4M7QBxt4&rel=1</a>

Ever so exciting - he's just my cup of tea. Seems a little calmer than other output of late, but top notch stuff once again.

Right! What's next?

Ooooh. That sounds like a daft idea.  I am in!

Sounds very similar to the sort of thing Tangerine Dream have been doing for years.
