		<title>Easy &#8211; Heatshock (Them Stars Remix)</title>
		<description><![CDATA[
this one&#8217;s for a remix contest over at saintwoods.
it&#8217;s been a tough couple of weeks, working on this track. the reason i enter these remix contests, above all else, is because it forces me to work to a deadline. work ethic has always been a problem for me. ultimately, a completed track (on time) is [...]]]></description>

Spitbubble by Them Stars
a friend of mine suggested that my compositional skills were limited by my software i skills. i actually think it&#8217;s the other way around. i&#8217;ve been producing electronic music for nearly 7 years now, i&#8217;ve taken classes on desktop production &#8211; i think my abilities and understanding of the medium are [...]]]></description>

		<title>radiohead &#8211; true love waits (arr. christopher o&#8217;riley)</title>
		<description><![CDATA[
now that i&#8217;ve got a half-decent piano recording setup, i want to start posting more piano videos. this is christopher o&#8217;riley&#8217;s arrangement of true love waits, from his album of the same name.
the recording process is something i&#8217;m still getting used to. it&#8217;s a different sort of pressure than a live performance. there&#8217;s also dealing [...]]]></description>

		<title>OTA Talk w/ Shad</title>
		<description><![CDATA[
seriously, one of the best interviews i&#8217;ve seen in a long time. i feel like an idiot, the whole time i couldn&#8217;t get over the fact that it was flow 93.5. i haven&#8217;t listened to real radio in years, but i always assumed flow was just some mediocre hip-hop station. the host, though &#8211; ty [...]]]></description>

		<title>this shit is bananas</title>
		<description><![CDATA[
as i&#8217;m sitting here watching silent hill speed runs, i have to wonder what roger ebert could have possibly been thinking when he began his one man crusade against the notion of video games as art. the post was made almost 4 months ago and after 4000+ comments, who knows how many blog responses, and [...]]]></description>

i must&#8217;ve seen harry potter and the half blood prince four or five times in our hotel in italy. i don&#8217;t know why, but between the world cup and harry potter there was just nothing on tv. each time it was on i managed to catch the scene where dumbledore has to drink the Unhappiness [...]]]></description>

		<title>mogwai &#8211; &#8220;hunted by a freak&#8221;</title>
		<description><![CDATA[
the opening notes of hunted by a freak just hit me, like that moment of recognition when you&#8217;re standing in the audience and the familiarity of a song washes over you and you can&#8217;t stop smiling. mogwai have a gift with melody that is, at the same time, not melody. vocals that are barely discernible [...]]]></description>

new mix new mix new mix new mix
i know i know, that mason track is overplayed. it&#8217;s just such a great opener i couldn&#8217;t help it. this one went a little over one hour which bugs me because i am ocd about that sort of thing. but i had to squeeze in that solee track, [...]]]></description>

		<title>blockhead &#8211; music by cavelight</title>
		<description><![CDATA[
this album has been sitting in my amazon shopping cart for like, 6 years now. just one of those things. you scrape together enough quarters to buy a shiny new music-disk, and you see that $16.99 price tag and it&#8217;s like, ohh man, 16.99 huh&#8230;maybe next time buddy.
from what i understand, blockhead takes a sort [...]]]></description>

		<title>Peter Gabriel &#8211; Games Without Frontiers (Them Stars Remix)</title>
		<description><![CDATA[
this is my entry for the Peter Gabriel remix contest over at Indaba. i wasn&#8217;t familiar with the original at first (though after 7 straight days of work i could probably recreate it myself), but the idea was immediate. the female vocal melody and the pseudo-rap delivery in the verses lent the song to electro [...]]]></description>
