What's New

Life Moods

¦ Dialling in from Jesus Mound ¦

About a year ago I bought a toughdrive with 100 GB space. I copied all my CD's onto it, and transferred all downloaded tunes. Then clicked random. It's been great having an 6,100 tracks available at a mouse-click. It's also meant I've not bought any new music for a year because I was so wrapped up in rediscovering everthing I already have. Anyways, a few days ago I went into FOP to buy Klaxons album and came out with £100 quids worth. I'm restricting my listening to a couple albums at a time, playing them for a few days before trying more...simply to build up life moods, embedding memories, emotions and current state of mind in the fabric of the music. Otherwise, if you just listen to all the new music in one go, nothing sticks, and you don't get to know it. I adore the experience of putting on a track and finding a plethora of associate memories and moods sweeping back at me with the music. Current mood music is Klaxons, Data-rock, Beck "the information", and New Order Substance 1987.
