Vinyl revival.  Currently employing Audacity to convert the following to digital...

Natural History - The March Violets

British Sea Power again. This time 'Do You Like Rock Music?' I am really enjoying this stuff at the moment but have given myself some serious earworms!

A Drive by Truckers playlist. Particularly enjoying "When the pin hits the cap" and "Your Daddy hates me".
I think you'll find it's a bit more complicated than that.

Now hunting out music from the first batch of bands announced for our annual musical pilgrimage.

So far I am enjoying:
PSB
Darwin Deez
The Milk

The Unthanks I also rate, but in a different manner to the above. Not 100% sure how their sound will go down at a festival!

Public Service Broadcasting - The War Room

Gloriously mad, as only British music can be.  Pathe newsreel voiceovers mashed with guitars.  "Spitfire" is brilliant.  For the full effect you need to see the accompanying video, which is what I was doing this morning whilst trying to get my head around a server build!  Their channel, on YouTube is PSBUK, worth checking out.

I have also lined up some Willy Mason, The Unthanks and Darwin Deez...

There are a couple of pubs in a short walk of the site for watching such things ;)

Today I have been processing payments to the genteel strains of Insense: The Silent Epidemic

Our clients have been fucking PAID! ;D

How do you tend to listen to music? I have always done a whole album, then maybe another of the same band. I don't like to mix songs up.

Mostly, I listen to mixed up music on the radio.  Secondly, I listen to albums (unless I only got the single or EP), skipping tracks I don't feel like.

I'm still frequently playing the latest albums by Melody's Echo Chamber and Tame Impala.

Interesting, I am always amazed (and a little envious of) by people's capacity to listen to all sorts of music, jumbled up. Also, their ability to not have an unpleasant, visceral reaction to music they don't like. Very similar to the intense, skin-crawling, aggravation of hearing someone chewing and swallowing.

If the music was written to be listened to as a whole, then that's how I prefer to listen to it (e.g. most concept albums) as otherwise it's a bit like putting on a film DVD and only watching the best scenes - they may be good, but without the build up and context setting then they are missing something.

Otherwise it's pretty much random play, with a bias towards favourites and a finger on the skip button.

Today I've been listening to some Tangerine Dream - Underwater Sunlight and Miracle Mile. Interesting soundscapes for background noise whilst tapping away at the computer.
