The Beautiful South - Dumb (possibly their best song, although their popularity was on the wane by then),.

NEU! - Neu!75 - classic krautrock

Jakob - Solace - Mogwai-esque post-rock

One day I'm going to pop round and borrow your record collection :-)

Today, I am listening to the new album by The Boxer Rebellion - The Cold Still. It's really rather excellent.

 ;D

I'm glad someone appreciates it: whilst at (heathen) friends' yesterday it was suggested that my cd collection was the reason the burglar who 'visited' recently buggered off without taking anything.  ::-)

Today (all borrowed from the library):

V/a Deutsche Electronische Music
Jonsi - Go
Klaxons - Surfing the Void

Latest eMusic downloads - i.e. soundtrack for the next month

Nicolas Jaar - Space is Only Noise
Direwires - Hearts in Stasis
Eluvium - Lambent Material
Hammock - Longest Year
Peaking Lights - 936
Rene Hell - Porcelain Opera
Spyra - Sferics
The Fun Years - God Was Like, No (ace title!)

Bingo! That's what I am, a saviour.
A sort of cocky version of Jesus.

Earlier today, Underworld - Second Toughest in the Infants, while walking to work.  It's great walking music, so I could pretend to be a character in a grimy Britflick as I traipsed Darlo's murky streets.

Now, I'll go off and listen to something more esoteric, but probably not as esoteric as microphonie's collection.

Paul Oakenfold's Goa Mix - pyschedelic trance, film scores and dialogue from Blade Runner.

First broadcast on Radio 1 in 1994, licencing issues meant that it took until last year before it was released on CD, albeit in a slightly updated form, with some film score tracks re-recorded. Back in the day it was a revelation.

It still sounds great today...  8)

Roger Waters? Head man of the "Sultans of Whinge"!

I am just rocking through the day with Joe Walsh and the James gang.

Today's choice started with a duo of Black Crowes albums, Hard To Handle followed by Three Snakes and One Charm.

The current listening has moved onto Bloc Party - Silent Alarm

When that has finished I shall be listening to Black Sabbath - We Sold Our Souls for Rock and Roll.

After that I haven't decided yet...

I need a calm day after the whingefest of Roger Waters yesterday.

So today is Brian Eno day.

Ambient 1 - Music for Airports
Ambient 2 - The Plateaux of Mirror
Ambient 3 - Days of Radiance
Ambient 4 - On Land
Apollo: Atmospheres and Soundtracks

I wonder far I get before I doze off...?

On the way to work, and on the return leg I shall be listening to Terrorvision - Rarities and B-Sides.

Notable by the omission of the most popular B-Side they did (as voted by the TV forum members) "Hard To Feel".  It does however contain "What shall we do with the drunken sailor", "You really got a hold on me", "This drinking will kill me", "Glad all over" and my favourite "Too Stoned To Dance"...

Mr. Beethoven's C minor piano concerto.

Radio 3 are broadcasting all of his concerti this week (5 * piano, 1 violin, 1 triple) and next week all 9 symphonies will be aired.

Of all the bastards, Mr. B was indeed one of the cleverest.

I was enjoying Pitchshifter - ..:[ www.pitchshifter.com ]:.. (which had been preceeded by PSI) when Amarok crashed.  Don't know if it's a comment on my musical taste or what.

So after re-starting Amarok I am now listening to Stereophonics - Word Gets Around and I have lined up The Style Council's Greatest Hits and Sugar - Copper Blue....

Bach Cello Suites - Pablo Casals

Recorded in 1938 and 39. Mono and a tad scratchy even cleaned up and digitised but still sublime.
I think you'll find it's a bit more complicated than that.

Luke Vibert's first release under the Wagon Christ moniker for 7 years - and very, very good so far!
Right! What's next?

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