Blogs were meant for scientists to post their findings during research and other scientists could add their thoughts and provide feedback, not for kids with feelings to talk about their lives.
Excuse the lack of words. I never really wood-blocked it in my playpen; I drew on the mirror.
I'm excited to announce that the music department at WPPJ is actually in gear for once in two years. Awesome show, great job. Being a college radio nerd shouldn't be a negative experience.

Recent discoveries; this is 2010's version of a 'zine and yes, Virginia, I discovered them after you:
Oneohtrix Point Never - Rifts
Glistening, psycho-synthual drones done with Russian analog boxes and arpeggiators. The man behind the work, Daniel Lopatin, has feverishly recorded every bit of experimentation over the past two years. Rifts, over its odyssian 2.5-hour triple-album length, simultaneously evokes concepts of and emotional reactions to nostalgia and yearning for the future. (If you're of the mind to and can find emotional expression in drone music, high five. We should be friends.) Download part 1, part 2
Holly Miranda - The Magician's Private Library
Once upon a time, Miranda sung for the Brooklyn band The Jealous Girlfriends and on the side as Raven Mayhem. Now, behind her own name, Miranda has expanded lyrically and instrumentally, calling on talented instrumentation and some inspired production tricks to create what for you is a Shine On You Crazy Diamond for 2010. The Magician's Private Library sways and tumbles in on itself with pristine vocals floating above the narcoleptic whirlpool surrounded by a gold smoke-hazed laser show.
