fifty and sunny



the blagoblognet gobbled up my post yesterday, which introduced a new mix featuring songs heavy on heavy synths. i will remake that later. right now it's fifty degrees on a sunday afternoon and i'm enjoying some new, peaceful music that audibly reflects the buds on the leaves starting to form on the tree outside my living room window. this lil' collection of ten songs is somewhat of a prelude to my impending road trip to california.

1. great lake swimmers - still /lost channels
2. chad vangaalen - city of electric light /soft airplane
3. stephen steinbrink - when it's easier /ugly unknowns
4. elizabeth cotten - wilson rag /freight train and other north carolina folk songs and tunes
5. geotic - middle school sleepaways (yosemite) /eyes
6. don peris - jubilee /go when the morning shineth
7. little joy - don't watch me dancing /little joy
8. stuart and caan - i wanted so long /the mayfly dance
9. vetiver - strictly rule /tight knit
10. bonnie "prince" billy - i don't belong to anyone /beware

in other news: bonnaroo is 88 days away. to continue my long tradition of vaguely relevant celebrations, i've been watching bugs bunny, tom, and jerry perform liszt's hungarian rhapsody no. 2, which happen to be some of the greatest classical music videos of all time. i'm not sure what would even compete.
