lets see if we cant turn all those links blue

to achieve my goals

how can i be dead when i so deeply cling to you

im not okay i float in blue oblivion

how you are the breadcrumbs that i might find my way back

(emailed this to myself while walking to the bus stop)

(i’m feeling particularly warm and fuzzy tonight)

god this picture made me so sad. mad men’s subtleties are wasted on me. there’s something about a girl with no makeup. i can’t shake that look. reminds me of

Wally Pear – A Little Too Obvious

Norah Jones – Young Blood

i saw norah jones play this song live on the colbert report and it was pretty immediate. it’s almost like norah jones + kaki king + iron & wine?? instant success. probably the fastest a song has ever made it to my loved list on last.fm. it’s just subtle and beautiful and it makes me feel warm.

Norah Jones – Young Blood

Grizzly Bear – Veckatimest

trying to keep up with new music, i end up overlooking things. my first impression of yellow house was that grizzly bear were just a sleepier animal collective. seeing them live in june changed that pretty quick. veckatimest reminds me of when i first got into radiohead, where each song would just run my life for about a week. this song just happens to be the one running around my brain for now.

Grizzly Bear – Ready, Able

Lone

my discovery of lone (and the “wonky” movement in general) is just one example of how effective last.fm’s excellent recommendation tool is. they know me so well. i don’t know what else to say. i love it and ain’t nothin that could come between us.

Lone – Sea Spray

Signalrunners – Meet Me In Montauk

ok so technically this song came out towards the end of 2008, but whatever. apart from being the catalyst for my whole trance/progressive house phase of 2009, this song has surprisingly strong sense memory associated with it. signalrunners have definitely abused the success of this song, as their most recent work following it – their remix of oliver smith’s ‘restless’, and andrew bayer’s collaboration with boom jinx – sound structurally as though they were built from the same project template. and while both of those songs still manage to be great, none of them surpass the original.

Signalrunners – Meet Me In Montauk

i feel like i am forgetting something

that i am the one who happens upon the dead

let’s don’t be sad
you could be i don’t know where

let’s meet back here
when the world is less face down in some thing or other

let’s be friends
it’ll be alright
