I listen to my obsessed albums (or songs) multiple times per day. This album is following in the footsteps of Elliot Smith’s “Figure 8” and Josh Rouse’s “1972”.</p> <p>No review for albums, don’t know how to quantify them and if I don’t like it, I don’t listen (a rare occurance given that I left music radio behind a few years ago).</p> stephen tag:xyzzyb.com,2008-04-16:354 2008-04-16T12:57:00Z 2008-05-25T14:34:38Z <p><a href="http://www.zanorg.com/prodperso/automachine.htm">make your own techno</a></p> stephen tag:xyzzyb.com,2008-03-11:328 2008-03-11T15:37:00Z 2008-05-25T14:27:09Z <p><a href="http://youtube.com/watch?v=JdxkVQy7QLM&re">rant against pachelbel’s canon in d</a></p> stephen tag:xyzzyb.com,2007-09-08:17 2007-09-08T13:52:00Z 2008-05-25T14:43:15Z <p>Behold! The <a href="http://www.oddmusic.com/gallery/om24550.html">sea organ</a>.</p> <blockquote> <p>The Sea Organ (morske orgulje) is located on the shores of Zadar, Croatia, and is the world’s first pipe organ that is played by the sea. Simple and elegant steps, carved in white stone, were built on the quayside. Underneath, there are 35 pipes with whistle openings on the sidewalk. The movement of the sea pushes air through, and – depending on the size and velocity of the wave – musical chords are played. The waves create random harmonic sounds.</p> </blockquote>
