After such a long time away it seems only appropriate that I return home to Drunken Sherpa with an album review. My good friend and consummate music lover Sean drops a yearly mix CD on his peeps around Christmas time (a tradition I’m very fond of myself) and this past holiday season’s entry brought with it another brilliant example of the art of mix; the sublime ‘Keep’.
Drunken Sherpa Daily Dose 10.26.2006
Aiight.. I’ve been busy with Urban Monarch lately, but wanted to drop some Daily Dose goodness I’ve been savin up for y’all.
First up, some Donnie Darko inspired Halloween fun.
Last week I was sent to El Paso on an impromptu business trip.
One of the best things about business travel are the ‘travel days’ which often involve getting out of work early to make it to the airport… and the airport bar.
This trip was no exception and after getting dropped off at DIA I checked in and headed straight to the concourse. This trip was a bit strange in that I didn’t know the people I was travelling with, but did know they were a few rungs above me on the corporate ladder, which meant I should exercise some caution before enjoying some beverages.
I had a basic description of one of the guys, and after scanning the place for anyone similar I deemed it safe to sit down.
Thursday Threesome : Electro Goodness
Just a few synthesizer based tracks I’ve been digging lately. Enjoy.
This string anchored, almost symphonic piece is Bjork at her lyrical best. Equal parts sullen and hopeful, you cannot deny the weight of lines like
Darling, stop confusing me, With your wishful thinking.
Brilliant.
