hmm…ok, i need a bit of a m3ntal break. ive been running thru our website redesign this entire week, and im fairly certain now that staring at code/flash all day slowly catalyzes your brain into a squishy paste chemically not unlike chocolate pudding. ive also been bored with my playlist, so…lifting an idea from actually crazy, i opened up all my mp3’s, randomized the playlist, and im listing the first ten songs that come up, no matter how embarassing they are….

hey tien, technically the list of 25 was your idea. i was just shooting for 10 yo.
i dont actually subscribe to any particular “group” anymore…i just pick and choose specific songs i like. my reasoning is that i dont always expect a particular group to consistently crank out shit i’ll like…whether ive liked their stuff in the past or not. besides, my musical taste is erratic and changes frequently.
i got the p5 song from a friend…”45 rpm” is from happy end of the world. but another friend had made me mix tapes of them in the past with tracks from made in usa and sound of music.
i know it was my idea. but the fact that i did it at 2 am was the bad part.
